Freaky Frugalite

How was your Christmas holiday? I made a nice dinner and we all voted to watch “Ben Hur” together… but it wasn’t on our movie bookshelf! A thorough scouring of the home and boxes and closets produced no “Ben Hur”! I have no idea what I did with that movie!! I was pretty disappointed. I [...]

I have a GOOD excuse this time!! Really! We were traveling. Before I start the Meet Me on Monday, check out these photos! I am so excited, I can’t wait to blog about our trips on my travel blog, New York Traveler.net! We visited Howe Caverns in Cobleskill, NY. It was fabulous. Photo taking was [...]

Woohoo, I got my Internet again, baby, and it’s BURN BABY BURN. Fastfastfast, oh yeah! Right now, it’s just me on the network. I know as soon as all the kids and their computers connect, my lightning bolts will start to stutter into weenie speed…. but cable is definitely faster than DSL. And this time, [...]

Facebook is a fountain of…. well, faces, I guess. And funny and witty photos! This past week, it seemed that everyone was posting funny cartoons and images! I nabbed several and thought I’d share. Because sharing makes you feel good inside, right? Believe it or not, I have even MORE to show ya! I’ll have [...]

I don’t often tinker with my photos, besides cropping and sharpening the image. But we took so many stunning images of the Adirondack Mountains when we traveled there two weeks ago… I was inspired! I use Paint Shop Pro X2, a very nice program. It comes with a “time machine” effect. This effect is perhaps [...]

Since Friday is supposedly a more casual work day (not for me, though!), I figured it was a good day to post some of the funny photos I have taken or found on the Internet, so you can waste lots of job-production time, get piled on with more work, get in trouble with the boss, [...]

See? This is what the LORD says to me: “I will remain quiet and will look on from my dwelling place, like shimmering heat in the sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.” Isaiah 18:4 Red cabbage from my garden. I am DEFINITELY quiet and looking from my dwelling place. I [...]

It’s very difficult to believe that some of these photos are not “photoshopped” (altered or edited with the Adobe Photoshop program). Some of them are spectacular!

I’m not starting a new meme! The title of the post is a take-off on my Find the Kitty Friday meme at my New York Renovator blog. I found this photo of my son hilariously funny. Can you see him? Yes, that’s the weird humor of my kids! I asked my daughter if she would [...]

Isn’t it beautiful? My son found him today. He was unmoving, but alive. Click the next photo and “All Sizes” for a larger, spectacular view of the dragonfly. They are so lovely, so wonderfully made! I’ve never seen a red one before. I tried warming the critter by holding my warm mug of tea close [...]
