Too cool for school

August 10, 2010

Most of the kids are back in school around these parts. I can’t imagine how they must be feeling. If I think the summer went by fast, they must be wondering if they even had a summer at all. I remember all too well the dread of going back the first day. It seemed as [...]

Friday Funnies

July 30, 2010

Talk about a video going viral.  I’ve been seeing this everywhere on the web.  But just in case you haven’t seen it yet, far be it from me to keep you in the dark.  I literally cannot stop  laughing.

Say Something

July 21, 2010

I consider myself to be a pretty good writer.  I like to think I have a certain knack for expressing myself via the written word.  Back in the day, I was an avid letter writer.  To my chagrin, however, the art of letter writing is all but extinct these days.  There was a time when, [...]

Creative Clutter

July 15, 2010

I just finished organizing my desk in our home office.  I have a REAL PROBLEM with keeping my desk clean. It was like this when I worked outside the house too, though I did manage to clean that one up at the end of each day. I just don’t know why I can’t keep the [...]

Focus, focus, focus

July 13, 2010

A couple of years ago, I diagnosed myself with A.D.D.  It’s the only reason I could think of to explain why I often lose interest in a conversation after about 30 seconds.  If I’m not the one doing the talking, you can safely bet I’ll be thinking about sitting on a beach somewhere sipping a [...]

Childhood Take Two

July 11, 2010

I’ve largely been deprived of seeing many of my childhood photos for most of my life. I had only ever saw one of me as a baby. Just one. I often wondered how the youngest of twelve kids could have only one baby picture out there. Could it be that they all had been lying [...]

Insanely Jealous

June 10, 2010

Everyone who wants an iPad even though you have no idea why you need one or better yet, why you even want one, please raise your hand. Now that I’ve put both my hands down, I’ll continue with this post. I’m a geek at heart. There, I said it. I love shiny, new, techie things. [...]

What you talkin’ bout Willis?

May 9, 2010

I’m not much of a sports fan. The only time I get truly excited about anything to do with sports is during football season. Really, what woman doesn’t like watching a bunch of chiseled male bodies (for the most part) in super tight pants running, grunting, tackling, flipping and throwing things around? It’s all just [...]

The Good Sister

March 31, 2010

When it comes to my family, I often find myself in many different roles besides wife, daughter and sister. Sometimes I’m tech support, other times I’m tutor, quite often I’m therapist. With certain family members, I find myself in the role of secretary. This happens way more often than I can count. Recently I had [...]

Must see TV, Part 2

March 29, 2010

It’s funny how writing things down often put them in perspective. As I went back and read over the last post, I realized I had only written about reality shows. Maybe this says something about the state of television programming these days. It’s no secret that many of the major networks have gotten away from [...]
