BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! I don’t know if I have had too much coffee today, or just not enough, but I went to this t-shirt store and totally cracked up! My kids, who always come running in the room when they hear my laughter shaking the roof rafters, ran over and said, “What’s so funny?!” THESE!!! BWAHAHAHAHA! I […]

And You Thought YOU Were Good at Ping Pong
December 30, 2008
I have no idea where I found this video…. lol. BUT I LOVE IT! It’s Bruce Lee playing Ping Pong. HIS way of playing Ping Pong. Lee, with his usual panache, makes Ping Pong a stylish, artful choreography. Go, Lee, Go! Stunning! For you newbies to this blog, I am a Bruce Lee/Chuck Norris fan. […]
Got ‘pinions?

Comments Off on Got ‘pinions?
I have lots of ‘pinions, as I say. (opinions). I used to be worried about having sooo many opinions, but not any more, lol. Plus, people sometimes pay me for my opinions now. 😀 I like to review stuff. I love reading reviews myself, actually. I usually never buy anything until I’ve researched it and […]
I Hate Firefox NoScript
December 29, 2008
The past few weeks, I’ve noticed that my visitor count has been drastically low on my blogs. I don’t think it was due to the holidays- this began sometime around the first of the month. Also, it seems that I haven’t been receiving any traffic from Google searches, except for image searches. I use StatCounter […]
Holiday Gift Shopping Time!

Comments Off on Holiday Gift Shopping Time!
OH NO, you probably groaned! But YES! This is the time when I hit the stores, scarfing up sales left and right, hoarding up for next year’s gift-giving/birthday gift season. I scour the ads, the online stores, and local stores for discounts and sales. And some people haven’t even had their Christmas- the Orthodox religion […]

Ow ow ow ow. I am amazed the driver survived this crash. WOW. This is just amazing. It’s a short video. Watch how this Porsche 911 GT1 flips up and over. This was during the Petit Le Mans race. Can you see how the Porsche was too close to the car in front of it? […]
Finding Cheap Jigsaw Puzzles
December 27, 2008
Does anyone know where I might find inexpensive jigsaw puzzles? The kids are really “into” jigsaw puzzles lately. We spent two nice, quiet days working on a complicated 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle, and it was so much fun! I’ve checked Amazon, Walmart, Target, etc. Most puzzles seem to be priced in the $20 range, too […]
Where’s That Holiday “Team Player” Spirit??
December 25, 2008
HILARIOUS! A guy from Anchorage, Alaska, Bill Powers, built a HUGE snowman in his front yard, and named it Snowzilla. News story here. He built it for his seven kids in his yard, but Snowzilla quickly became a part-tourist attraction/part-freak show. Looks like word got around, and people are driving over to Bill Powers’ neighborhood […]

Comments Off on Prep for SAT And More
Well, I have two kids priming to take their SATs in the near future (whewwwww it’s been a long 12 years, lol). It’s really, really gratifying to see one’s kids finish school after years of homeschooling. Wow. And I SURVIVED!!!!!!!!!!!! OK, I guess the kids deserve some credit, too. LOL. Seriously, they have worked very, […]
Merry Christmas!
December 24, 2008
I wish you all a Blessed Christmas and happy holiday season. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy […]


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.
