Good Gravy!
December 22, 2009
Comments Off on Good Gravy!
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Club House. All opinions are 100% mine. Have any of you ever heard the phrase “Good gravy!” Kind of like “Good heavens!” or “Good grief!” I never heard it EVER until my brother moved down south, and he says it. And now GAH! I […]
I Need More Twitter Followers
December 22, 2009
Wanna “follow” me on Twitter? I do try to make things fun there. I personally don’t see anything particularly wrong with including mentions about contests or good deals or what-have-you, but I do tire of them ALL the time. Some folks have nothing to say on Twitter except the latest paid advertisement. :ermm: I like […]
Bookswim: The Netflix of Books
December 22, 2009
This is a really cool idea, and I’ve mentioned it before here; it’s called Bookswim. It’s touted as a “Netflix” for book lovers- it’s a rental library lending program. You pay a flat fee once a month, create a queue of books you want to read, and the books are sent directly to your home. […]
You’ve Got a Friend Indeed
December 19, 2009
I just love my kitty to little itty bitty bits! She follows me around the house like a little puppy dog… and when I’m not feeling so hot and to go bed to lay down, she follows me upstairs, to lay on my feet. Every once in a while she gets up, comes to my […]
Smelly Towel: Yes, It Works!
December 18, 2009
Over the summer I reviewed the product called Smelly Washer. It was a good time to try out the stuff- summers are humid here, and my 16-year old washing machine was starting to smell a little…. uh…. shall we say, “funky.” I think Smelly Washer did OK… but you had to let the washing machine […]
Mixed Messages from Fortune Kooky
December 16, 2009
Hmmmm. My son opened up a Chinese fortune cookie (kooky, I call it) and found a mixed message. What do you make of this? :duncehat:
WFW: Swamped!
December 16, 2009
I’m swamped with work this week! It’s been this way since Saturday- from 8am to 12am, there’s so much to squeeze in! I’ve had a lot of work this week. It’s good, I’m glad to be working, especially since last week was slow. So although I am very very busy (and thus too busy for […]

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Competico. All opinions are 100% mine. I participate in the Saturday Photo Hunters blog meme. It is a fantastic way to meet people from all over the world, and to get a spectacular eyeful of the amazing photos that so many of you take. […]


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.
