Oktoberfest as a cultural event
September 21, 2012 - September 30, 2012
Denver's Ballpark Neighborhood welcomes back one of the city's longest running festivals and one of the largest of its kind in the nation! Oktoberfest Denver is set to once again commemorate this world-famous and time-honored tradition of German heritage by combining dynamic performance of music and dance, bier-based activities and entertainment for all ages
Denver's Historic Ballpark Neighborhood
Larimer Street between 20th Street and 22nd Street
Go early with the kids, just as you would to Cinco de Mayo or any other cultural event.
The "bier-based activities" hmmmm? drunk driving? talking smack? wenching? countless races to the porter potty? I will call the organizer and ask for clarification - probably a lazy choice of words.
Have fun!

Encouragement (and update)
Many moms cried when their youngest went on the bus to start school. I did too for two weeks. After two weeks my youngest declared: "I am not going back". Huh? Why not? Isn't it fun to be with all the other kids?
"yeah, but it's getting boring". I was at loss for words and not quite prepared for action.
Also...
When you ask your kids what they did at school or with their friends and they say "NOTHING", they are not stonewalling you. They actually did nothing. So, don't read anything into it. Talk with them and stay involved.
School Supplies. I have talked with quite a few teachers on being creative about keeping supplies coming on an ongoing basis through PTA and parent participation instead of an instant demand. It looks like that might be an answer. Teachers have no problem using stuff you already have at home (from the prev year) Some backpacks have a warranty... work it! Consign it. Swap it.
You are single moms - stand your ground and take calculated risks. Every day is a GIFT.
Hugs!

favorite phrases of liars
"Why would I do that?"
It's a favorite stalling line of liars, so they can buy a little time to work out what to say next. These phrases also fit the bill: "What kind of person do you think I am?", "Are you calling me a liar?", and "I knew this would happen!"
