NEVER fall asleep with Oxygen on your TV. Some people sleep walk, some people sleep eat. I apparently sleep channel-surf. When I fell asleep I was watching NBC and the end of Jimmy Fallon. When I woke up, the Oxygen network was on and I was viewing a rather large […]
Is it a bad omen? Is it a sign that things are not going to go well for me today when, as I am coming back inside after seeing the kids off to school, a crow dive bombs me and nearly poops in my coffee? I don’t know which would […]
Finally!I finally finished all the library books I had out so I can now read A Twisted Ladder by Rhodi Hawk. I went to DLI in 1990 with her, for Polish, so when I ran across her book on Amazon, I was beyond excited to get it! She was an incredibly […]
Holy hell! What a day! Let’s see,… we left for the cleft clinic at 0630, after having drugged the Ty-man with the doctor-recommended Benedryl, an attempt at not having a puke fest the entire way! It was successful, as he was asleep about 20 minutes into the 2-hour drive!! I […]

Supposedly they found out about it after the fact, but didn’t do a damn […]
We spent the weekend imitating garden slugs. In other words, we did as little as humanly possible. My heart just wasn’t into doing a whole lot that required any kind of motivation, after my dad’s news on Friday. So we headed to the Movie Gallery and rented a STACK of […]
I hate mold & mildew! I suppose that really isn’t surprising, seeing as how I am deathly allergic to it! The venhilation system is not even remotely capable of handling the sauna-like humidity that my bathroom is capable of. Or, rather, the humidty that my children are capable of creating […]
A present for me,… I bought a new dress for myself yesterday, which I LOVE. It is a pink and borwn paisley kimono-style dress from Mlle Gabrielle, a designer for, um,… bigger girls above size anorexic 4. You can see it HERE. I am now just hoping that it gets […]
