A Moment in Time: Writings About life |
The Parent Retreat is a special place just for parents. Parenting can be an overwhelming task in today's violent and ever changing society. The Parent Retreat is our way of providing parents with the most up-to-date and accurate information. ¤ Our goal is not just to inform, but to entertain and lighten the burden that today's parents feel. We will find the latest books on subjects that touch every household who has children. We will gather every bit of information that may help solve the typical problems facing families today. We'll need your help with this too! Let us know when you hear about a new book that you have found worth mentioning. Parenting Books |

We will be calling it Crafts & Hobby Corner where you can find everything from stickers and stencils to travel games, doodle art kits, and coloring books. Great for home schooling or even for teachers who want to provide fun projects for their students. These are great items for grandparents to have on hand when the grandkids arrive for that special visit. There will be plenty for parents to do also! Great Items for Home Schooling Programs! |

¤ We will provide a list books for Grandparents. These books will range from wonderful stories, that you can read to your Grandchildren, to books that deal with Grandparent rights, and the growing problem of grandparents having to raise their own grandchildren. |
Laugh Lines, our general humor department, is for everyone! This will include humorous stories shared by our readers as well as personal stories I hope you will enjoy. We hope that you will share your wonderful stories with us in Laugh Lines, a unique part of our site. This is where you can really make a difference! Without you, sharing your funny family stories and anecdotes. and without your participation, this site will suffer. Send your funny family stories to: editor@cactusventures.com Laugh Lines features the humor of Jen, who started writing under the pen name, Shaniqua Dramboui. She is a rare talent who has a unique way of expressing herself. We hope you enjoy her brand of humor. You can e-mail Jen at: jen@cactusventures.com ¤ Humor is forged from the fire of personal pain. How true this is for most families. Many comedians credit the chaos and confusion of their own dysfunctional families for their funniest material. One of my two favorite comedians is Louie Anderson, and Sherman Alexie. They bare their souls and their dysfunctional family life in a way that brings both laughter and tears to your eyes. We are compiling a list of humorous books and other media that you may find entertaining. |

The Cellar Share your poetry with us. I remember, (when I was in my 20's), going to a local coffee house called "The Cellar". It was dark, musty and filled with "Beatniks". They had poetry readings and other kinds of self expression. I thought it would be interesting to provide you with the same opportunity that The Cellar provided back in the 70's. So, welcome to The Cellar! We are anxious to receive your poetry expressions! Just e-mail us with your finished works. Send it to: editor@cactusventures.com |
