NO SH**!!!

I haven’t been here much lately and I hope you didn’t miss me. Wait. Yeah, I hope you did. I missed you.
Anyway, I’ve been busy evacuating. And I don’t mean getting the hell outta Dodge. And you must congratulate me because due to all this, it’s official- No one can [...]

John Mayer: Say (music video from The Bucket List)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Last Friday night PD and I invited friends in for pizza, beer and The Bucket List. We enjoyed all three immensely. I’d been looking forward to watching the movie for quite awhile and it’s been all rented out at the video store. I have [...]

Taking full advantage of a beautiful morning, waking up on the back porch with coffee and web-surfing capabilities. I’ve visited with 3 people online, two neighbors and one husband so far and didn’t have to even stand up. Called and scheduled two medical appointments and am going to call me mum here in [...]

Sometimes life has a way of gettin’ ahead of you and the best you can do is just hold on tight and go with it. Things happen that you have no control over. Other things pop up that you’re just not emotionally equipped to deal with, no matter how hard you try.
I’m, at [...]

Well, isn’t this just a fine How-dee-doo. I guess you are going to have to exercise your index fingers and go here to watch the video for my favorite song of the week. It seems You Tube is now part of the conspiracy to drive me nutz. Let me know how you [...]

SUNDAY WRAP

I woke up in the middle of last night with a full-blown touch body-slam of the flu. All this time I’ve been trying to gain weight? Ha ha. Gone. That’s all I have to say about that.
I laid around all day with my new best friend, the down comforter. We bonded. [...]

STILL FULL.

How was your Thanksgiving? Mine was great, thanks for asking. A piece of our family had a small gathering at Hazel’s and I must say, she is an excellent cheffette and a charming hostess. And she makes a mean cornbread casserole that’s to die for. It was a nice, relaxing day [...]

I wasn’t sure if I would get time to post this or not tonight but I figured tomorrow’s kind of like a Friday at work, so I can be up later than usual…
My mom had surgery this morning and is doing fine. I had told some of you ahead of time and want to [...]

Hey y’all. I missed you! Amazing how a few days away can get a woman feelin’ all behind. It might take me awhile to get caught up, your patience is appreciated. I read all the comments left while I was gone, I will get to them at some point I hope. [...]

PD and I went to the flea market at the park today instead of tomorrow. I thought it might be nice to just have an at-home day before going back to work.
I did pretty good as far as not buying too much stuff I don’t need. I think I took about $70 with me [...]

I’m going to blame my state of mind of late on the medication I’m taking. There is no other explanation for my behavior recently. Or rather, I should say, the way I’ve been feeling. I can’t say the least little thing sets me off, it takes a wee bit more than that, [...]

RECIPE FOR A GREAT TIME

Saturday afternoon Kate and I spent at the fair, eating food which was incredibly bad for us but tasted incredibly good. Couldn’t persuade her to ride any Midway rides, but hey, she’s 50, what do you want? When we were growing up we probably rode enough rides to last us a [...]

I really hate that I don’t know enough about computers.  And I hate asking people questions about them.  Once in awhile I run into someone who is kind and patient and seems willing to share their knowledge.  But more often than not, I’m made to feel bothersome and rarely get a straight answer.  It’s like [...]

What a week this has been. I can’t say I’m not happy for the weekend.  After everything else, we had a bitch of a storm on Thursday afternoon.  PD was visiting his parents when the storm came up and I was at work so there was no one here to close windows.  Consequently, when I [...]

IN MY HEAD

Sometimes when life gets hectic or unmanageable or unsatisfying, I retreat to that place in my head where the world is as I would like it to be. An avoidance technique, if you will.  Many would chastise me for the ridiculous amount of time I spend inside my head/haven, but I care not.  I’m a [...]

So after a terrific Easter dinner at me mum’s house, I find myself here with a giant cup of coffee laced heavily with French Vanilla creamer and a plate of yummy homemade peanut butter fudge and Turtle Temptations which are chocolate/caramel/pecan bars oozing with yumminess.  Forget that I feasted earlier on ham, mashed potatoes, gravy, [...]

I’ve been sent the above “Easter greeting” in emails for aboot the past three years and it still makes me laugh every time…
Spent the day shawpin’ today with PD and me mum.  Blustery as a day on Pooh Corner and twice as cold, but a fun day.  I made my rounds to my music stores [...]

GO FLY A KITE

I hear that April is, among other things, National Fly a Kite Month.  If the wind we had here today is any indication of what we’re in for the remainder of the month, the prognosis for kite flying looks quite promising.  Hmmm.  Prognosis?  That’s probly not the word I was looking for.  Probability?  Propensity?  Gah!  [...]

QUICK WEEKEND UPDATE

I’m all happy with the sunny days we’ve been having.  Of course there is rain in the forecast for later today when I need to be looking all pulled together without frizzy hair…
I’m elated to find that a favorite band of mine, The Kings of Leon, are featured in the April issue of Esquire, one [...]
