Montclair Under State Rules to Ration Gasoline [UPDATED]
The ordinance will go in effect on Saturday at Noon
[Updated: 10:30 a.m. Saturday]
Montclair Council's ordinance to restrict the purchase of gasoline by license plate number has been superseded by a state order.
Governor Chris Christie signed an executive order Friday night rationing the purchase of fuel based on the last number of car's license plate starting at noon on Saturday.
Montclair's rationing ordinance which was passed prior to Executive Order 108 is no longer in effect.
The state has imposed gasoline rationing in 12 counties: Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Morris, Monmouth, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Union and Warren counties.
According to the state, plates ending in an even number can fill up on even numbered days of the month, while plates ending in an odd number can fill up on odd numbered days of the month.
Zero is considered an even number.
The number to look for is the final numerical digit contained in the plate number, whether it is the final character on the plate or not, according to the governor's office.
For example, a theoretical plate number of "MVM 48Q" would have "8" as its final numerical digit, and would be permitted to fill up on an even day.
Specialized or vanity plates, those not displaying any numbers, will be considered odd numbered plates, the release said.
"Only in cases where there are no numbers and only letters is the plate counted as an odd number," said Kevin Roberts of Gov. Chris Christie's press office in an email to Patch.
This system does not apply to gas cans, such as those for generators, at this time, according to a spokesman from the governor's office.
The ration order will remain in effect for as long as the limited declared state of energy emergency is in effect.

[Originally posted: Friday] The Montclair Council passed an ordinance late Friday will restrict the purchase of gasoline and diesel fuel in town to an odd/even system based on a car's license plate starting at 6 a.m. on Saturday.
Gasoline can be purchased however in containers on all days.
The distribution of gasoline and diesel within Montclair will be as follows:
- The last digit or letter of a vehicle's license plate will determine whether the vehicle is odd or even.
- A license plate ending in letters A through M will be considered odd.
- A license plate ending in letters N through Z will be considered even.
- Gasoline and diesel fuel will be dispensed to odd number/letter vehicles on odd numbered dates.
- Gasoline and diesel fuel will be dispensed to even number/letter vehicles on even numbered dates.
- Saturday begins day one.
This ordinance will remain in effect until further action of the council or until Township Manager Marc Dashield determines that the emergency is over.
The township cited the following reasons it sought to impose the restriction:
- There is a severe difficulty in obtaining gasoline in Montclair after Hurricane Sandy.
- Electric service remains out for nearly 50 percent of households in town.
- The gasoline shortage is causing long lines at gasoline stations, in some cases exceeding one-half mile and resulting in waits of several hours for service.
- Long lines at gas stations have caused serious disruptions in traffic.

Gov Christire's limited state of emergency states in part "Once in effect, all retail dealers of motor fuel will be required to only sell motor fuel for use in a passenger automobile bearing license plates, the last number of which is an even number, on even numbered days of each month. Likewise sales will only be permitted to passenger automobiles bearing license plates ending in odd numbers on odd numbered days of the month. Specialized plates – or those not displaying a number – will be considered odd numbered plates."
This does not mention odd and even letters, only numbers. I am confused.
I have seen articles that say all letters are considered odd.

I can end the confusion, Jacob. After spending 1/2 hr on line for the Valley Road Delta station, a very understanding, but firm Montclair police officer told me to go home and return tomorrow. Montclair Patch's story is not totally accurate. If you have a plate number that ends in an even number followed by letter A-M, you go by the number, not the letter. Since I fall into that category, I get to wait in line again TOMORROW. Gov. Christie's rule is as follows: even numbers/even days; odd numbers/odd days regardless of what letter follows. If, however, your plate is ALL letters, you are designated for an odd day. State rules trump towns and local e-newsletters. Now that I am now down BELOW 1/4 tank (YIKES), I get to find a station with gas tomorrow and get on line again. The officer recommended a strong complaint to Patch for confusing info. But these are confusing times with information often in flux. And I know Patch's reporters are doing their best to keep us all informed. You still get an A on your report card for all of your efforts. Linda in Mtclr
Cherished Moments
6:32 am on Saturday, November 3, 2012
Is Montclair doing their own system? We are heading out and thought Gov indicated all letters are supposed to be odd.
8:00 am on Saturday, November 3, 2012
It says it starts Saturday but is Saturday odd or even day?
Nik Bo
8:06 am on Saturday, November 3, 2012
Today is an odd day BUT beginning at noon you must follow Christie's rules NOT Montclair's. Patch - you really must update this for people
9:27 am on Saturday, November 3, 2012
Look for the last number on your plate, not necessarily the last 'character' on the plate. So, MBR-F4U would be Even because of the 4. Letters are insignificant in this calculation. Vanity plates that are all letters, IM COOL, fill up on Odd days. Even/Odd days are determined by calendar date- today is Nov. 3, 3 is an odd number, making today an ODD day.
Victoria Hanks
9:36 am on Saturday, November 3, 2012
Yes I heard noon also--montclair needs to be on this to instruct people correctly. thank you
12:46 pm on Saturday, November 3, 2012
This is inaccurate. Just got kicked out of line, after waiting hours at WP gas station. A-M are not considered "odd. The last number of your license plate is what they go by. Patch, please get your facts straight.
Mike D'Onofrio
12:58 pm on Saturday, November 3, 2012
@RRsq: I updated page today at 10:30 a.m. that state rules are in effect. Montclair rationing rules were superseded by state rules last night. Check above to see new rules. My apologies for the confusion.
Gabrielle Howard

Can anyone tell me if LUKOil on Valley Road has gas? Thanks!

Otto Preminger's Anatomy of a Murder features fantastic acting and brilliant writing. So great in fact, the two hour courtroom drama seems much shorter.
Home Theater Forum's Matt Hough reviewed the Blu-ray release and had these thoughts:
Details come blazingly to the fore in shot after shot in hair, faces, and clothes. Contrast is magnificently applied to make blacks about the deepest ever seen and whites beautifully offered without blooming. There are no age-related artifacts, and the image is as film-like and alluring as it's possible to be.
There is a slight bit of hiss noticeable occasionally in the DTS track, hiss that wasn't noticeable in the PCM 1.0 mix, but either track will offer the film's aficionados a treat, and it's a terrific option to have both tracks available.
You can read the complete review here and discuss it in the forum.
The woven acoustic screen is now available in a retractable, masking version.
Centralized home control and automation plus boatload of A/V options including dropdown theater screen revitalize 12K-square-foot home.
Should TV manufacturers offer dumbed-down TVs that focus on image quality rather than apps?
Say hello to home control in this high-tech palace, circa 2006.

Sorry Mr. President - It Isn't Enough!
The man of "yes we can" seems more and more like "ehh I really don't care". That's the feeling you get when you hear today's big news from the campaign trail, in which President Obama rolled out his new "rural job initiative":
At the White House Rural Economic Forum in Peosta, Iowa, Tuesday, President Obama will announce four new economic initiatives that the administration says will spur growth and help create jobs.
• The Small Business Administration will double the amount of investment capital funneled to rural businesses through its Small Business Investment Company program. The total capital infusion will be $350 million over the next five years, officials say.
• The administration will sponsor and host "conferences" to help connect private equity and venture capital investors with rural start-ups. And, they'll use "marketing teams" to go out and pitch federal grant money to private investors.

Once a grade has been awarded for a class, it is normally permanent. Situations may arise where there are documented, mitigating circumstances, the following steps should be followed:
Step One: The student should contact the college faculty member about a grade dispute. Every reasonable effort should be made by all parties to resolve the matter informally at this level, and no written records of the matter will be placed in the student's official file. If the situation is resolved informally and the instructor agrees that an error was made, the instructor will submit a Grade Change Form to the appropriate academic dean, who will forward it to the Records Office.
Step Two: If the grade dispute cannot be resolved at the first step, a Student Grievance Form must be submitted by the student within five business days of the notification of grade unless otherwise indicated by the instructor.
Step Three: The Program Head will follow the Student Grievance Process using the Student Grievance Form. Course syllabi and evaluation materials will be included in the review of the grade dispute.
Step Four: Following the Student Grievance Procedure, if the student is not satisfied with the Program Head's decision, the student may follow the process outlined on the Student Grievance Form to appeal the decision to the academic dean and the Vice President of Academic & Student Affairs if necessary. The decision of the Vice President of Academic & Student Affairs is final.
Step Five: If at any time it is determined that a grade change is warranted, a grade change form will be submitted to the Records Office.
The grade appeal procedure provides an equitable and orderly process to resolve situations in which a student may contest a final grade assigned in a course during the previous academic semester. Students should be aware that establishing course requirements and assignments, evaluating a student's work, and assigning a grade are the responsibility and the prerogative of the individual instructor. In the event that the final grade received in a course was assigned in a manner inconsistent with the course outline, or was assigned using a method other than that used to compute other students' grades in that course, the matter may be resolved through an informal or a formal procedure.
Students are allowed to submit a grade appeal only if they do so within one month after the grade is posted.
Exception: In circumstances where the student has mitigating documented circumstances, grade changes must be requested within one year of the receipt of the grade in question.
The student should attempt to resolve the final grade dispute with the instructor informally. If the situation is resolved informally and the instructor agrees that an error was made, the instructor will submit a Grade Change Form to the appropriate academic dean, who will forward it to the Records Office.
If final grade conflicts cannot be resolved informally as described above, students must adhere to the following:

Clinton native Hunter Nethercutt and fellow East Carolina University students are gaining real-world experience with a real client and a real budget of $3,000 as part of a senior marketing project at the university.
A team of ECU marketing students, led by Dr. Christy Ashley, was selected to compete in a nationwide challenge sponsored by American Honda Motor Company in conjunction with EdVenture Partners. The competition has taken place over the course of the Spring 2013 semester as part of Ashley's Marketing Strategy course in ECU's College of Business.
The 2013 Honda Civic Marketing Challenge is designed to give students real-world business experience by asking them to design and implement an integrated marketing communications plan. As part of the project, Nethercutt along with other students in the class created their own in-class marketing agency, Endless Opportunities Marketing, responsible for researching, designing, implementing, and evaluating the success of an integrated marketing plan.
"My Marketing Strategy class has been given the privilege of competing against 19 other universities nationwide in the Honda Marketing Challenge," Nethercutt stated. "We were the only school in North Carolina selected to compete in this challenge … and are extremely enthusiastic about this unique opportunity."
Many other well-known national colleges were chosen to compete, including Boston College, University of Connecticut, University of Southern California, Johns Hopkins University, Virginia Tech and Texas A&M.
"We are so grateful to be given an opportunity that allows us to gain invaluable real-world experience before entering the workforce," Nethercutt said. "As a class, we have created the student agency, Endless Opportunities Marketing, in order to create a promising campaign for the 2013 Honda Civic Sedan. We have teams and leadership roles as part of the internship program that has been integrated into our Marketing Strategy course."
The student objective is to assemble a campaign plan for the new 2013 Honda Civic Sedan. In the process, students are trying to create buzz for the school and Honda, accomplish the goals set forth by the project and the class-formed marketing agency.
"We are trying to raise awareness of the new model and increase perceptions that Honda is a fun, youthful, innovative brand. By using our knowledge concerning the interests of our college peers and conducting research, we are able to create an authentic campaign targeting ECU students," Nethercutt said.
Recently events on campus included a tailgate event before a baseball game against N.C. State April 2 and the main event, "The Honda Experience" April 11.
"The Honda Civic Marketing Challenge is an exceptional opportunity for ECU students to flex their problem-solving and creative abilities," said Ashley. "I have been extremely impressed with the team of students who comprise Endless Opportunities Marketing."
Endless Opportunities was divided into seven divisions, with a leading coordinator overseeing everything. Departments included research, budget, campaign strategy, campaign implementation, advertising, public relations and published reports/presentations. Research has included data collected from the target market, the Generation Y (18-25 years) college student demographic, in order to gauge what this target market truly wants and needs. After analyzing the data, the team designed and implemented a campaign, based on their findings, across ECU's campus.
Nethercutt's role within the agency has been as a member of the PR department.
"I've participated in constructing press releases, contacting media outlets, writing 'thank you' notes and various other promotional tasks for our events," he said.
Towards the end of the semester, the group will collect feedback and conduct post-campaign research to analyze their success on campus. The project will conclude with a formal presentation to the client summarizing the team's efforts and results.
Nethercutt said he was glad to be a part of the marketing campaign.
"Being the only school selected to participate from the state of North Carolina we truly value and appreciate this amazing opportunity," he said. "The experience, thus far, has been both interesting and eye-opening. I've truly come to understand all of the research and work that goes into even the smallest projects within businesses. I believe I'll be able to carry the knowledge I've gained with me into the workplace and become a better employee as a result."
If chosen as a winner by Honda, parts of the agency's campaign will be implemented nationally.
"The Honda Civic Marketing Challenge is an experience like no other," said agency coordinator Brittany Ingram. "We are getting the chance to gain skills and valuable practice in our chosen field. Like the campaign slogan says, 'you can't label this experience.'"

Perfect Portobello and Red Pepper Almost Burgers |
Category: | Entrées |
Source: | From the Wine Enthusiast Pairings Book |
Description: | Even the nonmeat-eaters want a burger now and then. This recipe treats the Portobello, really an overgrown Cremini mushroom, as if it were a real chunk of ground sirloin. If properly prepared, there is a chance that with your eyes closed, you might not be able to tell the difference. |
Number of Servings: | Serves 4 |
Ingredients: | For the red pepper mayonnaise 1 cup prepared roasted red peppers, drained and coarsely chopped ¼ cup mayonnaise 1 garlic clove, chopped 1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce Salt and freshly ground black pepper For the Portobello burgers 4 large Portobello mushrooms, stems removed and wiped clean Sweet onion, such as Vidalia, thickly sliced 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 4 whole-wheat rolls, split in half 1 bunch arugula, trimmed, rinsed, and patted dry |
Directions: | Start a charcoal grill and build a medium-hot fire; preheat a gas grill to medium-high, or preheat a broiler, setting the rack on the second highest level. To make the red pepper mayonnaise: Blend the peppers, mayonnaise, garlic, and Tabasco sauce in a food processor fitted with the steel blade until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste and chill until ready to use. To make the Portobello mushrooms: Brush the mushrooms and onion slices with the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the mushrooms and onions until tender, turning often, about 10 minutes. To serve, arrange 1 grilled Portobello, gill side down, on the bottom half of each split bun. Top with some of the grilled onions, a generous tablespoon of the red pepper mayonnaise, and arugula leaves. Set the remaining bun halves on top, and serve immediately, with the remaining red pepper mayonnaise as an accompaniment. |

Title: | Director of Basketball Operations |
Phone: | 334-3003 |
Email: | email@example.com |
Former Spartan Kevin Oleksiak begins his third season on staff
at his alma mater in 2011-12.
He returned to the university to serve as the
program's Director of Men's Basketball Operations
during the 2009-10 season before moving to a coaching position
prior to the start of the 2010-11 campaign.
Named to the staff August 4, 2009, Oleksiak played part of the
2008-09 season in France before returning to the United States. He
sat in on some of the team's practices and games as a
volunteer in the latter part of the season.
A native of Abington, Pa., Oleksiak scored 1,015 points in his
UNCG career, ranking No. 15 all-time on the Spartan career scoring
list. He is in the top 10 in steals, three-point attempts,
three-pointers made, and free throw percentage. When he graduated,
his 119 games played were tied for the most in school history. He
still holds the single-game school record for three-pointers with
nine and steals with seven.
Oleksiak graduated from UNCG in 2008 with a degree in recreation,
parks and tourism.

Cannonball Warm up Softball
The CANNONBALL is such a simple way of warming up, strengthening, and toning the arm, that it's unbelievable. You'll find this out the first time you use it! When warming up with the CANNONBALL, you only want to throw it easy about 10 to 15 tosses, and then throw a regular ball easy about 3 to 4 tosses, then gradually pick up the speed another 10 tosses, or until you feel comfortable. Another way of strengthening is to use it on non-game days, by throwing it against a solid wall such as brick or concrete, and the ball will bounce back to you, so you can practice ground ball drills. On non-game days you can throw the ball until your arm gets tired (do not over do it, or throw the ball hard). The Cannonball weighs 1 pound and is composed of solid rubber.

Need help with frimware upgrade!!!!!!!!
Like (0)
Help!!! when I turn it on all it says is " SD-card firmware not found in Root Dir" I went to upgrade my spider jam firmware and followed the instructions by down loading the firmware from the website to a SD card put it in my amp and it rebooted and it did nothing for a long time and the insructions sounded like it would be up to date right away. So I took the SD card out formated it and reinstalled the new firmware again and so now I think I erased everything and might need the frimware and other software from your website to get jamming again. Please help!!! Thanks
Assuming your card is formatted correctly, Create a folder on the card called LINE6 and drop the firmware file into it. The try the update again.

I am undoubtedly affected by rain. When it comes in its figurative sense, I say find some yellow rain boots and go kick your heels in it. Literally, however, it makes me want to take a nap. And I've lost count of how many consecutive afternoons it's rained now. Come 3:00, ominous clouds cluster overhead and shadow our home with complete idleness. In the last few weeks, I've started a couple essays, a home project, a closet overhaul, two to-do lists and a new calendar system for activities, but they all remain unfinished thanks to the weather. Any other time I would feel unsettled, but gray afternoons tend to be so forgiving of procrastination.
In our idleness this weekend, we enjoyed:
Saturday Morning Pancakes. Lainey's kitchen independence has taken a leap. She can measure, stir and pour with no help. I also found out this weekend that she can change Nella's diaper, take off her pajamas, redress her in a completely new outfit and do her hair in pigtails, all by herself. And Nella lets her.
The Return to Crochet. It seems very fitting with the rain. And I like the way my brain thinks--or doesn't--while I'm lost in counting stiches.
Quiet Time. It's like they just know. As if cued by the rain, the girls run off to find quiet things to do. Crafting and coloring, dolls and play kitchen. Or cutting up strips of paper and taping 100 of them to various hidden locations in the house. It happened.
Kitchen Help. My least favorite job happens to be Nella's favorite--emptying the silverware basket in the dish washer. She passes utensils (sans knives, of course) one by one, waiting for us to say "thank you."
Memory. It's not that I let her win. It's that age changes the way you play this game so much, I can't compete anymore. She forgets nothing and doesn't even try to hide her sneaky little "I'm winning" smile as she stacks match after match while I flip over the same cards every time. "You can have one of my matches," she usually finally offers. I remember saying the same thing to my mom when we played this game almost every afternoon while my brother and sister were at school. At least I remember that.
Rainy Crafts. With a coupon, we scored this soft doll for under $5. I sewed on some yarn hair and Lainey painted her a face this afternoon. Her name is Kate. She has some bald spots. And a wonky right eye. But she fits most of our doll clothes, and Lainey loves that she "made her."
Light Search. Weary of gray, I've been chasing good light this week. Opening blinds, pulling back curtains, heading outside anytime the sun sneaks a sliver.
I need light.
Endcap Dance Parties. We can't pass a CD song sampler on an endcap in any store without Lainey stopping to push every. single. button. We have to dance to each song and only Lainey can change the buttons. Ocean Calm, Backyard Barbecue, Zen Spa, Celtic Favorites. I know them all now.
Puppets. Nella's diggin' puppets lately. This one was Lainey's when she was little, and Brett does a mean puppet show with it--funny voices, dancing, believable movements that make it seem totally alive. I can't compete, so I just cover his eyes and say "Boo." And then the kids look at me blankly, like "not funny, try again."
I will finish the essays soon. I will complete my home projects, finish my closet, unravel some deeper thoughts and put them into words soon. But right now, it's raining. And unfinished seems a perfectly good place to be.
Welcome back to a past favorite sponsor, SweetSeat. After searching to find a high-quality, long-lasting, small-footprint booster chair to replace their clunky high chair, the family behind SweetSeat chairs decided to make their own. Each SweetSeat is handcrafted on the family's San Antonio farm with help from their three small sons. It's a perfect space saver once your child is old enough to sit at the table (Nella does just fine), and it's easy to clean. We love that our SweetSeat is portable (we've taken it to friends' houses, restaurants, the beach) and allows the girls a comfortable close spot at the family table.
Check out the selection of gorgeous prints:

We're having the opposite issue - aside from one afternoon dancing in the rain, 100 degrees and humid and gross are making ME procrastinate. But Ellie is at a hilarious/fun/willful/maddening stage, which is keeping me on my toes.
Love the 100 strips of paper. Love. - July 16, 2012 at 6:31 PM

My husband and I just vacationed in Naples for the past week from Seattle, Washington!! WE LOVED IT so much there and can't wait to go back!! The afternoon storms were a little annoying but some were fun to watch!

Send some rain up to us too! We can no longer walk barefoot on the grass! The brown, crunchy stuff is too prickly on the feet!
Enjoy your down time! :) - July 16, 2012 at 6:36 PM

Ahhhhh...rainy procrastination! Love it. We're enjoying...well...pretty much everything. Life is just on one of those wonderful, fleeting, high rides right now. But I will say...half-melted ice cream covering my babies chubilicious thighs...that might be my favorite thing today.

We just finished up enjoying our weekend at my parents' house...even at 31 still nothin' like going home. My 19 month old Henry got to spend the days chasing around his Gammy and Grandpa; I love watching him experience my "old home" through his little eyes.

We are enjoying extra cuddles from our kids as they all get to experience chicken pox! Love the pictures of Lainey making pancakes. There must be a universal stage that little girls go through where they instinctively know: its time to make pancakes!

I'm soaking up the last few weeks of summer with my two. My 4 year old will be in all day school very soon. Hot, hot days are spent indoors drawing outlines of their bodies on easel paper and some days we go to the splash pads. Rain would be nice!! As always, love all the pics! Karen

Raining days are meant for doing nothing. Nothing except blog reading and maybe a little blog writing. I enjoy your pictures of the girls so much.

I feel the same way about rainy days. Lots goes unfinished around here in the Pacific Northwest during the winter.
Last Saturday we had a birthday party for my five year old. And soon, will be going on a road trip to Idaho for a family wedding, will have a visit from my in-laws, will celebrate my husbands 40th birthday, and my baby girl's 3rd birthday.
However, after the excitement of the superhero birthday party, I will be fine leaving a few things unfinished for a couple of weeks and just soak in the sun...or rain...whatever the Pacific Northwest summer has to trow at us! - July 16, 2012 at 6:46 PM

I love Lainey's doll. Something she'll treasure for the rest of her life, I'm sure of it. The heat here in Texas is also forcing me to be creative in keeping my little one busy. I have to admit, I'm starting to really love summer as a Mom.

Hi... it's me... it's been a long time although I think of you often. Seems things are well... our summer has no rain, hot, humid days which require air conditioning or major sufferage... and summer is now looking toward another school year! Nice to see that pile of yarn! XO

I needed a Kelle pick me up today, so I am enjoying this post!
To be honest, I'm struggling to find enjoyable moments this last week. Work is crazy busy, random household and car things are broken and one of my family is sick, seriously so.
Hopefully this week gets better. - July 16, 2012 at 7:05 PM

I am enjoying warm, sunny days in Seattle...a treat for us. :) We get outside every chance we get, and we are loving it. I swear my girls save secret parts of their personalities just for being outside. My goal for the upcoming fall/winter/spring (let's be honest, it's Seattle) is to get outside more even if we have to bundle up and wear out the umbrellas.
It's funny, though, because as much as I crave the sun and warmth here, I somehow miss the cooped-up rainy day feeling if we have enough in a row. Ha! :) - July 16, 2012 at 7:36 PM

Wonderful post Kelle.
Your beauties are so magically independent.
Love em!
Love the SweatSeat idea!
Sadly I went to order and have shipped to Canada and the shipping was half the cost of the seat. EEK.
They are a wonderful idea, I'll have to think on it but thanks for sharing another great idea! - July 16, 2012 at 7:45 PM

I wish we had rainy afternoons we've had little rain this summer that everything is so dry and brown. I've been enjoying the fact that my girls have been getting along fabulously. We've spent nearly every afternoon up at the neighbourhood pool. Most days there are school friends hanging about. It's Been a pretty decent summer so far!

I am enjoying taking care of a sweet baby for a friend of mine. She needed a mommy break and I needed a baby fix...match made in my heaven. I snapped photos and had a blast. Can I upload a pic in the comment section!?

I really, really wish we could get some of that rain! We've had only a sample of the wet stuff in the last few months, and our ground is cracked, dry, and crying for real relief! My kids and I keep staring at our rain boots waiting for the opportunity to go splash in the puddle. However, with the unrelenting 100+ degree heat and only blue skies in the forecast as far as the eye can see, it wont be happening soon. So enjoy it! :)

We've enjoyed some nice rain, here today, gone tomorrow already. Enjoying bike rides with the kids, swimming, and delicious food served up by my hunny! Loved 'bald spots and wonky eye' & a perfect doll 'because she made her'...LOVE IT!
Gotta go clean the dishes now.

As a FL native, the return of 3pm storms are a welcomed sight. As a kid, we could practically set our watches by them. In more recent years they were fewer and far between, which led to droughts and water restrictions. We always did our outdoor play early in the morning and spent the afternoons catching a cartoon, building indoor forts or playing cards. With a move to Newport, RI in just a few days, I will miss the afternoon storms....but definitely NOT the heat. Stay cool and dry.
- July 16, 2012 at 8:52 PM
- Peeper said...
I loved the predictable summer afternoon rains - my favorite thing about living in FL and perhaps the only thing that redeemed the oppressive summer heat and humidity for me.
Look at the bright side - at least you can get things started and the rain doesn't directly trigger episodes of narcolepsy! I'm 39 weeks pregnant now and the San Francisco fog so typical of our summers makes me long for all-day naps. I'm tired, crabby and literally can't keep up with my three year old but I still have to pack boxes for a cross-country move in a couple of weeks. I can't seem to get my butt in gear when it comes to pretty much anything else so, please, start enough stuff for the both of us! - July 16, 2012 at 8:58 PM

Everywhere Babies!! I LOVE that book. I have been known to hide books that are asked for over and over, but this one never gets old. Now I have to go look for it. And, I'm impressed by Lainey's kitchen skills (or your willingness to let her have at it). I'm pretty sure she's got my 6 1/2 year old totally beat.

What am I enjoying? Today was the "toughest girl I know" my mama's last breast cancer surgery. For the first time in a long long time I feel peace & joy! And couldn't be prouder! She did it! She kicked cancers "A"!!

Wonderful post!! Rainy days are my favorites... I usually go to the library or the zoo. Try taking them to a green house when it rains-- talk about some peace and tranquility!
Great post! - July 16, 2012 at 9:40 PM
- medina family said...
Rain has the opposite effect in our house...boys usually start jumping off of furniture, racing through the house at full speed. My girl, not to be left out, joins in, too. As long as no one's crying, it's a perfect time for me to start a project. I'd prefer them to head outside in the rain instead of ransacking the house, but we've had some huge, boomin' thunder lately that has us peering out the window to see if a tree will come tumbling down.
But I'm enjoying preparing for our upcoming trip to a wintery place. We're pulling out jeans and sweaters that have been stored away and are seeing how quickly kids really do grow out of clothes. And pinterest is great for airplane games and busy bags for long trips! - July 16, 2012 at 9:44 PM

I sympathise whole-heartedly. We are having the worst summer i can remember, over here in England. I think there's been perhaps 7 days since the end of April when it hasn't rained. Luckily my 1 year old son thinks staying inside and playing with dry pasta is the highlight of his little life so far!

I am enjoying the Michigan heat and humidity. I know that sounds absurd, but we're in the middle of a heat wave, blanketing the entire state in ninety degree weather and oppressive humidity so heavy, you can literally lift it. Many of us, myself included, want to complain, but the reminder that we waited for nine months for this, and that the cold will all too soon return, keeps us appreciating and enjoying the quick-lived heat.
I'm also enjoying cold root beer out of glass bottles. The neighbors give me a funny look when they find me perched on my front porch at 8am with a dark brown glass bottle in my hands, but that's part of the enjoyment too! - July 17, 2012 at 3:37 AM

We're enjoying a sweet newborn granddaughter, Ava, and her two-year-old sister, Nora. So happy my daughter and son-in-law live close. It's been a fabulous summer with a thunderstorm almost every evening lately. That's typical SC weather.

We have been enjoying anything sand and water...my 19 month old triplets are loud & clear that inside is NOT where they want to be...and the sand box and anything sprinkling, splattering or pouring water brings on the best day of their lives.
I'm also enjoying treating myself to new wardrobe pieces for my 1st blogging conference this August...It feels so refreshing to go buy myself a few things because "I have to..." It's like back to school clothes for mommy. Going for coffee with a new white t-shirt makes me have a new spring in my step. (Sad, I know.)
As always, I leave your blog with a feeling of inspiration. As always, thank you. - July 17, 2012 at 5:23 AM

I remember late afternoon rains when I was a girl growing up in Colorado. Inevitably every afternoon a thunderstorm would come rolling in over the mountains. I loved it!
But, I am addicted to the light. I don't function as well when it's dark. I must have some solar panels on me somewhere. It doesn't mean I don't still enjoy an afternoon rain every once in a while, though. - July 17, 2012 at 5:59 AM

I am FREAKING OUT right about now, because I wanted a sweet seat in the Chocolate with Aqua Mini Dot pattern last year and dropped many hints to get one for Christmas. Then, right after I dropped my hints, they stopped making them in that pattern. i prayed for a Christmas miracle, which didn't happen. And just now?? My Christmas miracle happened!! They have them back in stock for a limited time, and I scored one! For 10% off!!! THANK YOU!!!
Oh, I also thought that it could be very useful for you to make a tab of all your past blog sponsors. I love the companies that you feature, and when they disappear off the sidebar, they seem to be gone forever. Even if you just had a tab with links to the places, that would be fab!! - July 17, 2012 at 6:33 AM

Dear Kelle,
Thanks for signing and returning the two books so quickly! THANK YOU!
great post! send some of that rain to Michigan here in the U.P. would you please?!
great pictures as always, love the one where Nella's hair is all messy!
that's so awesome you have the patience to let them do the things you do, like measure and pour and empty the dishwasher!
you are the BEST mommy!

Thanks so much for being real. Having a perfectionist side to me, there is always such a feeling that "I should be doing something"..... Your post gave me a calming down feeling.
I'm enjoying helping my oldest daughter plan her baby shower. It's been a year of h-e-double-l for our family, and this shower is a peaceful, happy diversion.
Love, love, love your photos! And, you give me hope that we can not only keep our little ones looking beautiful, but can do the same for ourselves! Translated, that means you always look gorgeous! What an inspiration! - July 17, 2012 at 6:49 AM

I'm not sure that this falls under "what I am enjoying lately," but the other day I was doing dishes thinking of my nephew who was born with Down syndrome in February and I suddenly felt like it's not a big deal. I've had many moments of growth over the last several months, but this was different. I guess it was because it didn't require any convincing from myself. I just felt it. It felt like I've known about our blessing (Cavan is his name) my whole life.

I'm enjoying Bloom. I ordered it last week and it was delivered yesterday while my sweet 18 month old boy power napped after getting tubes in his ears. I. Could. Not. Put. It. Down. I had to abandon it when he got up, but as soon as he was in bed for the night, I curled up in my living room and finished it. I think the parts that spoke the loudest to me were Carin's speech to you after Nella was born, your story about Jeremy at the conference and the party with your 28 girlfriends following Nella's 1st birthday party.
You have such a gift for writing and our world is a better place for it. Thank you for sharing your stories and reminding us that there is so much power and love in female friendships and celebrations of life. - July 17, 2012 at 10:05 AM

I recently read your book and found it to be so lovely and inspiring. Each day as I take my daughter to preschool I see two guys who have Down Syndrome cleaning at the Beef and Bun (a local burger place) before it opens and think of you and your sweet daughter. They always have smiles on their faces and look happy to be doing their job. I never look at them without thinking of your story. Thank you!

Lennon's new thing is snuggling in our bed watching "TB". He just snuggles deep into my chest and sucks on his little thumb. I bury my nose deep in his soft, brown hair and take in the baby smell. I love how he looks up every now and then and smiles around his thumb. It goes so fast I just try and be still and drink it all in.

Sweetseats!! Is that what they're calling them now? I bought one recently at an antique store for $5! It has colored drawings of little kids, the kind of drawings you'd see on 1960's greeting cards or books. I just had to have it for my granddaughter because this is what we had for my kids when they were small!

Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirl!!!!!!!!!!!! I picked up your book a few days ago and NEVER wanted it to end. I wanted to devour it in one sitting but I just wanted to make it last like cook cake.
I loved the photos. Just LOVED the amount of photos. Your family is just gorgeous and those glasses Nella had on in that pink hat shot!? So freaking cute! Jeeze Lousie. I mean, my uterus tingled. I just got married, so kids are a few years away, but nothing makes those ovaries itch than freaking cute baby shots. Both your girls! I just wanted to scoop them up and bake them cookies.
But enough about cute kids. I loved your honesty. I don't know anyone personally with DS, just a regular customer (whom I absolutely adore for his kindness and humor). I have a neurological disorder called Neurofibromatosis, but that's another story for another day.
Anyway, I don't want to keep you, but I just really needed to say how awesome you are, how much I loved your honesty, your journey and you. You have such a spirit and it's people like you that make me believe in humanity. I know a lot of people with much more severe cases of NF than myself and I love them for their advocacy and fight for awareness and for their kids. Rock on and stay awesome! - July 20, 2012 at 2:15 PM

It sometimes amazes me just how important a clean financial history is for a person these days. Whether I want to apply for a credit card or purchase a home, car or get a personal loan, I need to prove that my financial slate is clean. Even insurance companies only provide services once they are sure that a person can pay the installments on time. So if I have anything close to a speck on my financial statement I can't insure my house, health or even my life!
The past one year has been hard on most people when it comes to money. People lost jobs and family incomes were drastically reduced. Even after taking several precautionary measures such as curbing expenses, I know so many people who struggled to make their payments on time. Not to mention that most financial institutions that provide loans have become all the more cautious when accepting applications, scrutinizing financial statements to bits before giving a loan. I know of people who have had their loan applications rejected because they had missed paying their credit card bill by a few days!
I know just how stressful it is to be in this kind of a financial crunch. When you are under the strain of huge debts, I think it is a good idea to go for a debt consolidation service that helps you to manage your funds, negotiates with your creditors and helps you with timely repayments to get the burden of debts off your shoulders. Also, even if you have been controlling your spending for a while, do it a little while longer! It's human tendency to start easing off on the cost cuts once repayments start working out. You wouldn't want to spend your way into a financial mess, so I think patience is also a huge factor in maintaining a clean financial track record.

School district planning cuts
Updated: March 12, 2013
Leaders are being forced to make tough decisions. Teachers' hours and programs are all on the chopping block.
The district has a proposal involving more than $500,00 in cuts, but nothing's set in stone. The cuts include combining kindergarten and first grade classes. Secretaries would lose hours and a new superintendent and nurse would be hired at cheaper salaries.
The proposal also eliminates junior and high school cheerleading, scholastic bowl and music programs. Everyone is welcome to attend Tuesday night's school board meeting. The superintendent says he really wants to hear everyone's opinion and encourages parents to attend.
Another heated topic involves the school board trying to combine sports teams with Heritage High School. People have been so against it, the board is letting them vote online. You have until March 15 to voice your opinion.
