 Hi, welcome to MasonMetu, from Me to You. I love living in Mason, Ohio /Deerfield Township, Warren County and the Greater Cincinnati area since it has so much to offer for families. I hope MasonMetu will be a a one-stop, easy to use resource to find family-friendly activities and adventures you can embark upon.

Note: If you pull up a recent blog post, you'll need to scroll down to the bottom of this page to read it - it is a snafu in the programming that this untrained web Mom can't quite figure out....yet.

MasonMetu™ Blog
Here you’ll find my blog where I write about some of my own experiences as a Mom as well as post some awesome giveaways. I’ll highlight certain features of MasonMetu that you might like to check out.
Thank you for reading my blog posts. I hope you can laugh along with me, preferably not at me. :) I've had fun writing the posts and I've found it is a great way to journal moments in our lives. One day when my girls are older, I'll be able to share these posts with them.
On some browsers (Internet Explorer), you may need to click on the current blog post in order to see the ghosts of blogs past - then it opens back up into the main blog page and you have to scroll down again for all the posts. I know it's a bit confusing but I'm not quite sure how to work that bug out of the system yet.

I've been happily married to Chris since 1995 and I'm currently a stay at home Mom to two girls, K & S and we have a chocolate lab, Bailey. I have a M.A. in Hearing & Speech Sciences from Ohio University (1994), a B.S. from O.U (1992), & I graduated from Middletown High School (1988). I have one older brother, and two younger brothers. We grew up in Jamestown and Olean, NY then moved to Middletown in 1986. I'm close to my parents,a.k.a Cici & Pee-Paw, and do lots of FOD's with them (see tab for more details). I enjoy reading, blogging, watching all my shows and spending time with friends and family.

Woe Is Me!
Memory lane is calling my name ……way back when I was an OU student (Go Bobcats), my childhood BFF was my roommate (love you Sue). We were polar opposites with anything dealing with time. My BFF was a bit slower getting ready and we nicknamed her “turtle” while, I , on the other hand, was a bit a lot more fast paced and was ready to go in no time flat. If we were planning to go out, I used to tell Sue we were going out 30 minutes earlier than we actually were but I think she eventua... Continue reading ...

Thank you!
Snap…crackle….pop…..no, I wasn’t eating Rice Krispies, I was turning on my hall light the other morning and those were the sound effects I heard. I looked up and saw a small amount of smoke billowing out of my upstairs hall ceiling light. Uh-oh! I quickly turned off the light but then I got worried that maybe there was something burning behind the scenes so, of course, I end up calling Triple M (Mike the Maintenance the Man, a.k.a. my Dad) to see if he thinks I should call the fire...

For anyone who knows me, they know that I am not a BIG sports fan or even a little sports fan. In fact, I don’t even think you can call me a “fan”. Unfortunately for me, my husband is. He is a huge sports fan and now that football season is starting up he’s loving life. Me, I just think about all those Sundays & Mondays where we have to revolve what we do around some game that he just can’t miss. The poor guy should’ve known that he had a sports-impaired-wife-to-be when we we... Continue reading ...

Woe Is Me!
I took Pysch 101 way back when and I vaguely remember the professor trying to emphasize that for every negative reaction someone gives us, it takes a lot more positive responses to make up for it. I don’t recall the exact stats but as parents, I’m sure you’ll agree. Even as an adult, I can attest to that. Just today, I got a curt email from a parent who wasn’t too thrilled that I sent them an email about MasonMetu. Oh no……have I become a “spammer”? I sure hope not. Mason... Continue reading ...
