The Price is Right
November 22, 2008
Wow, why can’t I be so lucky?? This kid is unbelievable. He’s 19 years old, gets on The Price is Right, and has an absolutely amazing day. Even Drew Carey starts to jump up and down with anticipation! This is a day he’ll be telling his grandkids about! Unbelievable. Watching the video, we were pretty […]
I… Got… Rhy..THUM!
November 21, 2008
We have a cockatiel who we’ve taught to cluck “Superchicken” and dance across his perch. (I’ll just have to get a video of it sometime now that I replaced my Canon Powershot with a “real” camcorder!). But I saw this cockatoo video and was wowed. This bird can really shake that booty! The caption written […]
Guuuuuulp! I Almost Lost Me!
November 21, 2008
Oh gosh. I am getting tooooo old for this, way too old. I just happened to click on my blog here before shutting down for the night and I saw the dreaded “Bandwidth Exceeded: This account has been suspended” page. Oh my poor little heart sank right down into my fuzzy pink slippers. Any drowsiness […]
The Black Hole
November 20, 2008
The Black Hole is what the kids and I call the public schools. They eat up everything- taxes, resources, property values, taxes, resources, taxes, taxes, and more! But, um, I’m not talking about that Black Hole. No, I’m talking about this one. Oopsie! Yah, everything is a good idea at 3am, isn’t it….
Good Sales at Kmart

Comments Off on Good Sales at Kmart
Kmart is really making a comeback. When I was a kid in the 70s, going to Kmart was a big thing. They had everything and the prices were really good. Then in the 90s, they seemed to go in a slump. I suppose competition from other stores (who were selling cheapo Chinese junk for mere […]

Make Yours an Inviting Home!

Comments Off on Make Yours an Inviting Home!
The holidays are coming! And winter is here now (well, we’ve got snow now and therefore our outdoor living is over until March). My thoughts are turning toward making my home a little nicer to be in. If you know me, you know that home lighting is a BIG thing with me. When I wired […]
I’m So Tire-d
November 18, 2008
What does a lady do when she has nothing to blog about, when her creative juices are running dry? Why, discuss car repair, of course! (I’d blog about best fat burners or diet pills, but I’m afraid that would drive some of you off, heh heh). Well, I actually heard something useful on NPR (NPR […]
My Elastin Just Isn’t Lastin’

Comments Off on My Elastin Just Isn’t Lastin’
*sigh* I’m (unintelligible) years old now, and in the past, I’ve always banked on feeling and looking young with little or no effort. Gals, that is SUCH a pipe dream, isn’t it? What’s happening to me?! My hair is thinner, my skin is thinner… my natural elastin just isn’t lastin’ anymore! I’ve been on a […]


Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I'm a freelance writer for national media outlets like USAToday.com, Salon.com, and others. I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.
