Holy Cow…Christmas Countdown!

by 14 Comments

I was watching a shopping channel on TV this morning and the host mentioned that there are only 21 shopping days left until Christmas! Please do not focus on the fact that it was a shopping channel that provided this valuable information. So, I occasionally partake of a little TV commerce. What’s the problem?Sure, there […]

A sudden realization

by 18 Comments

I think I might be a superhero. Now, before you close this browser down because you’re thinking I’m a totalwackadoo, let me explain and you be the judge. I first noticed my abilities after I had my daughter, Avery. I would bring little toys to the changing table to keep her busyduring diaper changes. Avery […]

Chocolate Brownie Trifle Recipe

by 12 Comments

Dessert. You know, I never used to be a dessert fan. I was the person at the party hovering around the chip bowl, bypassing the dessert table altogether while everyone else oohed and aahed at the vast array of sweets available. They just didn’t matter to me. And you know what? That really worked for […]

It has finally happened.

by 20 Comments

Well,I knew it was bound to happen. Eventually. I’ve been racing against time for years now in a full-on effort to alleviate dealing with this issue. I understand it happens to us all and have tried to reason with myself to that fact. It still stings. It still digs deep. It still pains me. Allow […]

Phew…is anybody else tired?

by 19 Comments

I’m exhausted. Like, seriously pooped. I’m pretty sure my feet are about ready to pop off my ankle bones. They’re propped up and pulsating Fred Flintstone-style from all the running around I’ve done over the past few days. It’s been a very busy weekend (for everyone, I know) but since it’s my blog I get […]

Black Friday

Well, did you survive the holiday? Are you still knee-deep in a tryptophan-induced coma? Are you leaking pumpkin from your pores? Oh…is that just me? How embarassing. We had a wonderful Thanskgiving this year withturkey a’plenty and all the fixin’s. But even more important than that was the fellowship between family and friends. Oh, and […]

Happy Thanksgiving

by 7 Comments

Wow, I can’t believe Thanksgiving day has arrived! Another year to celebrate and acornucopia of reasons to be thankful. I previously posted that although there are certain aspects about growing older that I could do without (hello wrinkles, forgetfulness and sparse eyebrows) there is an over-abundance of advantages granted to me with each new year. […]

I’m Thankful

by 18 Comments

It seems to be the growing trend this week to blog about your “Thankfulness.”Gee…I wonder why? Could it be that we are days away from that time-tested holiday gorge-fest better known as Thanksgiving? Yup. So I have purposed to pinpoint a couple of things I’m especially thankful for on these few days leading up to […]

I love vacations, but…

First of all, let me say a big “Thank You” to all of you for allowing me to whine relentlessly on Friday about being all uninspired. I’m over it. You were there. Thanky. Moving on… We just got back froma wonderful weekend in Washington State visiting family and celebrating a veryearly Christmas before parts ofthe […]

A little uninspired

by 15 Comments

So I am sitting here at my tiny little adorable netbook…completely uninspired. At a total loss for words. I have absolutely no story, no lesson, no humorous anecdote, no glimpse into my crazy life, no frustrations, no sarcasm, and no life-changing realizations. I’m just…eh. That’s not such a bad thing, in most cases. ‘Eh’ has […]
