Telephobia

Growing up, I do not remember having any irrational fear of heights. Roller coasters and planes were fun! Of course, whenever I stand on a ledge, I sometimes imagine falling and become afraid, but that's not very interesting. However, as a child I do remember having a horrendous fear of... (Google images) THE TELEPHONE... The sun was setting and the house was dark. The parents were out of the house and Brent was out with his friends. Only Mark...

Back to School

As I was rummaging through some of my incomplete diaries, I came across my old book of poems. These poems were probably written when I was around 8 years old. I will be sharing my artistic insights randomly. Since school is starting for some, I thought I would share my school poem with incorrect spellings and all :) School School dosen't suck Wish you could get bucks You get to play Teachers say you may Time goes buy fast hours past then...

Reddit Gold: Negative?

My sister wants me to write about the negative aspects of our recent Reddit experience.  I cannot reread the comments section of our video post because I really don't want to revisit all that hostility.  So instead of quoting like the previous post, I'm just going to speak on the gist of what happened that made our bear cry. When Alison posted our video (labeled "My brother spent months making this video to try and promote his...

Reddit Gold: Positive.

So if you didn't already know, our post went CRAZY yesterday! Not one, but TWO of our posts made it on the front page of Reddit! The first was the picture from our earlier blog. The other was our promotional video. I couldn't stop refreshing my page. I think I spent six straight hours staring at my computer and refreshing. It was unreal. I jumped and screamed out of my seat a couple of times. Though there was a lot of negative comments,...

My Awkward Life pt.1

(Fake names used throughout) My early experiences with girls were quite tumultuous.  My very first friends were girls.   It was day one of kindergarten.  I remember when I walked into the classroom a swarm of eyes turned to stare at me in synchronized motion.  At first I was apprehensive, but in retrospect, making friends at that age was easier than taking a poop. By the time I knew it, I was playing Barbie and...

Mr. Bear #1

My first attempt at making our bear. It didn't turn out like our logo... However,  I think he fits our theme. If you don't know already, our bear symbolizes everyone's inner child. So since the one I created is a bit more tattered, he is probably the inner child of an older soul. He has gone through many years of being ignored, made fun of, and told that his dreams are unrealistic. Don't let your inner child be this abused! Let him out to...

Success?...not so much...

In the previous blog, I talked about how I was successfully incorporated into the "About" section on our website. I was really excited about being included! However, did you see what they wrote?! I was like... Well, they did let me take control of this blog so I guess... I may not complain about the lack of information in the "about" section...                                                                ...

So begins our journey...

Welcome to Domestic Sanity's first ever blog! Introducing me, Alison, the sister. You may be wondering if Domestic Sanity is trying to pull a fast one on you. You might assume that these two brothers are scheming a fake sister to add a "woman's touch" to their business. Though my arrival to this family was a surprise, I ensure you that I am real (see photos!).  Luckily, I have been put in charge of this public blog. My existence is now made...
