Thursday Thirteen – Randomness

March 3, 2010

Each week I try to come up with something creative and intriguing for Thursday Thirteen and each week I wonder if I’m hitting the mark. While I have a whole list of Thursday Thirteen ideas to choose from, the fact is, I’m not in the mood for any of them. It’s been a difficult day [...]

Seriously, From Inmates To Playdates

January 8, 2010

Ten years ago, I walked the halls of South Central Regional Jail counseling inmates about their behavior and incarceration. Today, I walk down our hallway here at the McResidence counseling two little boys about their behavior and punishment. — Ten years ago, the only cell I inspected was a twelve by twelve concrete cell. Today, [...]

Thursday Thirteen – Ornaments

December 24, 2009

It is almost midnight. We had an impromptu Christmas get-together after church. And by impromptu, I mean we had about twelve minutes between the time we walked through the door until our first set of friends showed up. Which meant that objects were thrown willy nilly into our bedroom, baskets of laundry were shoved in [...]

Thursday Thirteen – Thirteen Things [and folks] I’m Thankful For!

November 26, 2009

What better day to tell you thirteen things I’m thankful for than today on this Thanksgiving holiday. I love Thanksgiving. I have fond memories of waking up very early on Thanksgiving morning to the smell of turkey and pumpkin pie baking in the oven. And, no Thanksgiving is complete without the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.  So, [...]

Thursday Thirteen – With A Little Help From Google

November 19, 2009

So, it’s time for another thirteen of something. McDaddy is home this evening and we’re watching Grey’s Anatomy. Did I mention that Grey’s Anatomy is a great show? Because it is. It really is. Today, I thought we’d consult Google for some help with today’s Thursday Thirteen. So, in the words of Simon Cowell, off [...]

Thursday Thirteen – Totally Random Pictures

I thought I’d shake things up a bit. For this week’s Thursday Thirteen, I’m going to find 13 entertaining pictures in my photobucket files and share them with you.

A Season Of Change

September 10, 2009

With the exception of this sinus headache I have going on, I absolutely love everything about fall. I love the cool, crisp mornings and the cool evening wind. I love the changing colors of the leaves. (Did I mention orange was my favorite color?) And, I love, love, love pumpkins, scarecrows and hay. I really [...]

It’s Thursday and that means another clever edition of Thursday Thirteen. It’s time for the Letter O. Let’s get this thing going. 1. OLIVE GARDEN – One of my favorite restaurants.

Thursday Thirteen – “H”arder Than It Looks

April 2, 2009

Before I get started on this week’s Thursday Thirteen, can I just say that I am so happy that Megan got voted off of American Idol. It was her time to go. Two weeks ago. But, whatever. Tattoo girl is gone now and my boys Danny and Kris are still hanging on. Adam is hot [...]
