		<description><![CDATA[Roisin McGettiga is an Irish runner who specializes in the 3000 metres steeplechase. She graduated from Providence College in 2003 and competed in the her first Olympic Games in 2008 in Beijing. In addition to her ongoing training/professional running career, she also is a business owner and a new mom.

Jaci Arnone recently interviewed Roisin for our Home Work series. We love getting to know parents and learning how they manage to squeeze in work time at home (whether working for someone else or running their own business) along with juggling kids, home life, and childcare (or lack of it).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Feeling the pressure of facing another season with an unproductive garden? Are your less than attentive gardening methods causing your neighbors to scowl? Feeling like you'd rather be beaching it this summer than pulling weeds?

For me, it's all of the above.  So we're trying a no-fail, maintenance free approach this year. We've turned our notoriously unsuccessful backyard plot into a Fairy Garden.  It's easy, cheap, better looking than my poor excuse for a garden last year, and fun for the kids...huge points for me!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Like many other families, this year's April vacation was of the staycation variety. But after keeping it local for a few days, I felt the urge to cast the net into new territory. So we embarked on what my kids call a Mystery Trip. We set out in the morning equipped with a days' necessities (snacks, misc. spare clothing, a reloaded Starbucks card) and only a very loose game plan.

Since my older son recently finished a book report on Henry David Thoreau, I thought Walden Pond was a great place to start. I have to admit that although I grew up in Massachusetts, I've never been to Concord or the surrounding areas.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By Jaci Arnone What better way to get into the Halloween spirit than visiting one of our local historic cemeteries.  It&#8217;s one of our family&#8217;s favorite autumn past times, when the weather is perfect for leaf and grave peeping.  And with over 2,800 historic cemeteries in Rhode Island alone, we have plenty to choose from.
