Hey, Look What I Learned!

June 28, 2010

Guess What? I’ve learned some stuff this week. Granted, its probably uninteresting, unimportant stuff, but it is stuff none the less. Let’s just forget the small talk and get right to it, shall we? 1. If you have leather seats in your vehicle and it is 412 degrees outside, it is a good idea to have [...]

Three Things!

June 28, 2010

My buddy over at One Red Daisy tagged me to do The Rule of Three. And there is no way I am posting a meme on Not Me! Monday, but if I did, it is probably because I didn’t do anything at all embarrassing this week which means I would have no substance for an [...]

Me and My Tiara

June 26, 2010

A few days ago, I posted about a bloggy swap I was participating in. The red, white and blue swap, hosted by Our Dandelion Wishes is taking place this week and packages are arriving on doorsteps all over the United States. Because of a glitch in scheduling (on my part!) my partner and I sent [...]

I Spent Five Years In Jail

June 24, 2010

Eight years ago I walked out of jail for the last time. I had an infant at home and I looked forward to the challenges and the excitement that lay ahead. Because I was prematurely put on bedrest before having Stevie, I made the decision to go back to work long enough to work out a two week notice. Mostly [...]

You Capture – Get Down Low

June 23, 2010

Well, I had my doubts about this week’s challenge. Short of hunkering (is that a word?) down to snap this week’s series of photographs, I wasn’t sure what to do. I had to dig way down deep in the creativity bag. In the words of Simon Cowell, off we go… This is the image you [...]

Thursday Thirteen – Things I Love About Staying In A Hotel

June 23, 2010

McDaddy’s civilian job requires him to travel. A lot. Before Stevie started school, we travelled with him quite a bit. At the drop of a hat he’d find out his expertise was needed in another state and we’d pack our bags and head out with him not knowing what day we’d return. We travelled to [...]

Happy Birthday Cake

June 22, 2010

For my mom’s birthday, a friend of hers made a really cool birthday cake out of candy bars and various little pieces of candy. That evening she brought it to dinner because she knew my boys would love it. Every waiter and waitress that passed our table stopped to admire it and asked if we [...]

The Sky’s The Limit

June 22, 2010

Well alrightythen. Looks like I got in on Mamarazzi’s Red, White and Blue Swap. Wonder what my swap partner will send? Wouldn’t it be great if somehow I finally received a sweet little Saturn Sky? After all, there are lots of choices. Chili pepper red? Polar white? Or perhaps midnight blue? I’d be thrilled with either of [...]

What I Learned This Week [Camping Edition]

June 21, 2010

 We had a wonderfully relaxing weekend camping with some families from our church. As always, I learned all kinds of stuff that I thought might help one or two or ten of you, so let’s get right to this eclectic list of stuff. 1. When you are shopping for a folding drying rack, a metal [...]
