Freaky Frugalite

I got my kitty a little “Kitty Cube” yesterday. I’m hoping she decides to make the Kitty Cube her favorite place to nap, because right now her favorite place is my desk chair. :-p If I leave the desk to go fold some laundry or answer the phone, she’s ready and waiting to hop up […]

I really enjoy seeing the funny photos that my fellow bloggers sometimes post. But where on earth do you guys GET them?! I do a search and… OH MY WORD! They are BAD. No thanks! So I searched for “clean funny pictures” and I got a few. But they were just a few. What’s sad […]

If you’ve been following this blog and my other blog, New York Renovator.com, you’ve seen me moan and groan about my plight with defunct vacuum cleaners. And I am starting to get mighty suspicious if this defunctness (is that a word?!) is a curse of vacuum cleaners. THEY NEVER WORK FOR ME!!! Argh!! I research […]

I’ve been looking for work, perhaps doing proof-reading, editing, writing, or working as a medical transcriptionist. Most jobs are asking for Bachelor’s degrees, of which I haven’t! It’s a crying shame, because my English grammar is quite perfunctory (I’m a bloggin’ Mary Poppins, I tell ya), and my spelling skills are superb. But because I […]

The kids and I have been reading through Hebrews, one of my favorite letters of the Bible. It is just so rich. I’m going to quote a portion of it here and let the Spirit speak for Himself. This is just so wonderful, such good news! But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice […]

I’ve been thinking a lot about that old proverb, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” I wish I had applied to myself as a young person- I wouldn’t have to be using so many “pounds” as I grow older, haha! Why does it take so long to mature?? I wish I’d […]

I blog so much about my cats that I think I should, lest I be accused of partiality, mention something nice about dogs. Um. They’re OK. I have a dog, a cute little beagle. She’s a little pesky because she’s *all* beagle. Which means she couldn’t care less about snugglies and lovins. She wants to […]

I got it! The new camera. My old one was was giving me problems (lens wouldn’t focus, shutter button wouldn’t work sometimes). I need a reliable camera for my travel blogging, and I chose the Kodak EasyShare z1012. It is so NEAT! I got it at Buy.com, from a third-party seller there (Buy.com sells brand-new […]

…or around here, it’s better said, “The snow is always whiter…” We got a snowstorm over the weekend with about 7 inches of fresh snow. :-p ANYWAY, have no fear- this is not another “snow” post! It’s…. a….. nother… CAT post! HAHAHA! Seriously, what is with creatures, humans and animals alike? I call it the […]

What IS it with boys and computer games?! I never thought my sons would be computer game fans, but they are! I’ve had to closely schedule their time spent on games, because if they couldm they’d probably spend all day goofing off! Also, some of the game sites are not so great- definitely not for […]
