Houston we have liftoff…
Steam of consciousness, sometimes disjointed alert… I am finally on a plane ready for some much needed PTO (which we all know means pretend time off) because, of course, I have work to do next week. But it will not kill the fun in my visit with my friends and to revel in being back […]
Cookbook Controversy
Don’t know how many of you caught the Today Show this morning where they were talking about the cookbook “100 Recipes Every Woman Should Know”. My friend Machelle says it is “just something different” and she is excited to run out and buy her copy. But as we were going through the titles of the […]
April Fool’s Randomness
I saw this the other night and thought it was cute. Of course, it isn’t true, well, maybe the chocolate part. I also must admit, pie was involved, if that gives you an idea of where the sign was. 😉 Dave went along to keep me company. He is a good sport like that. I mention Dave a lot. I guess because he […]
Secret Love
Yes, I have a secret love. It isn’t really a secret, I just haven’t told a lot of people. The truth is, Dave loves her too. Well maybe love is a bit stong in his case. I first spied her across a Barnes & Nobles I was in to pick up some Judy Moody book […]
Free Pie Wednesday
Although Village Inn calls it Pie Rush Wednesday. From 10 am to 10 pm at any Village Inn across the country they have free pie with any purchase. There is, of course, some yada yada stuff with that, they feature certain “supreme pies” that are free but not all and while the young lady at […]
Sometimes its hard, to be a woman…
Don’t get me wrong I am not saying it is hard in a, woe is me, kind of way. It is just really hard to figure out what to be when you grow up… I used to tell people that as a mom your world is full of guilt, when you are at work you […]
We don’t need no stinkin’ instructions
My dad came to town to pick up some materials for a home construction he is overseeing. With him, came a 26′ goose neck trailer. So I asked if he would be willing to help me bring some furniture up to my house from IKEA. Many, many carton lugging sore muscles later, Dave and I were […]
Concrete and Neighbors
Wow, what a busy few days. Spring break is always that time to shake off winter and start preparing for summer. In Phoenix, spring doesn’t change much in the weather department (we only have two seasons, hot and hell). But up north, in the mountains, there are signs of spring. The tree next to my driveway has […]
Random Friday
Maybe Friday’s seem like a great day to consider Random topics… Like, my heart and prayers go out to those in Japan and to those bracing for impact in Hawaii. So many things we can’t control from some giant Jumanji board (I wonder who is winning) seems like just a lot of losing down here sometimes. On to […]
Hollywood Good Eggs
We all know why it happens, but as we are bombarded with Charlie Sheen nonsense, I couldn’t help notice there just isn’t enough good press for the good eggs in Hollywood. There are TV and movie actors that seem to do a really good job of living a “normal” life. Granted, normal is all relative, but these […]
