All three kids are doing their music practice. AT THE SAME TIME. Two of them are working on their scales but are playing them in opposing directions. I have FIVE huge articles due today and I can’t think straight! GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. *** Three days after as I pay off the previous month’s whopping big cell phone […]

Rerun: Secret “Jesus Codes” on U.S. Weapons
May 24, 2012
Note: I’m busy this week, so here’s a blast from the past. Enjoi. 😉 ABC News: do only knuckleheads work there? Or just the ones who make the news stories for the website? Like this news story: U.S. Military Weapons Inscribed With Secret ‘Jesus’ Bible Codes Coded references to New Testament Bible passages about Jesus […]
Healthy As a Horse
May 21, 2012
Even though my husband works at the USPS (part time), he gets NO benefits. None. Zip. You’d think that a government entity — a unionized one at that — would provide something for part-timers, at least. Nope. Full timers, however, make out verrrrry nice. Part of the reason the USPS is having financial problems is […]
26 Years Ago….
April 26, 2012
Do any of you guys remember what happened April 26, 1986? I was a teenager, just becoming aware of the world around me and what a big, scary place it could be. I remember very well what happened that day: The Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster in the Russian satellite country of the Ukraine. While it is […]

Comments Off on Walgreens Eliminates the Pricey Middle Man
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. Have you noticed it yet? Have you been to Walgreens to pick up a prescription only to discover that your Express Script benefits no longer work there? The reason is failed negotiation. Express Scripts basically “wrote […]
Saturday Tidbits
December 17, 2011
Everybody has them on Tuesday but I thought I’d be different and have mine on Saturday. :grinny: *** I don’t like that a lot of my pals are on Facebook all the time and not blogging as much. I don’t like all the “sharing” that goes on there. Nothing against you guys, really, but blog […]
Go 180
November 15, 2011
This movie (below), the 180movie, will make you think. It’s done by Ray Comfort, who runs Way of the Master. We love his TV show. In the beginning, it has some disturbing images of World War II. It’s stuff we’ve seen in high school, but it’s still disturbing. But it certainly makes the point. And […]
Faster Than a Speedy Bullet….
September 11, 2011
Isn’t that a funny video?! :rofl: It took FOREVER to load, though. Thank God people don’t send earthquake news via YouTube, or we’d be still waiting for the buffering…. :hmph: Twitter IS pretty speedy. Quite a number of times, I’ve gotten up-to-date news that was not available anywhere. When we had the bad flooding last […]
Where Were You on 8/23/11?
August 23, 2011
We shall never forget…. *takes off hat, holds hat to heart* I was on my bed, typing at my laptop (I write upstairs in my room, it’s quieter). Suddenly, I feel the bed swaying. Just a little. But it’s constant, so it gets my attention. As if someone is rocking the bed just a little […]
Are These Scientists FOR REAL???
August 22, 2011
Update: A friend informed me of a followup to this story which was featured on several news publications. Apparently, the study in this story was just a “diversionary” project and not officially launched (so to speak) by NASA or any official body. Which is a relief. So please take the following as a work of […]

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.
