Sweet Sounds and a Smile
I am the mother of the loudest child on the planet. I am sure of it. Kidzilla makes sound of some sort constantly. Seriously. She begins speaking the second she wakes up and continues to speak, sing, laugh, shout, giggle, talk, hoot, holler, chortle, twitter, scream, whisper (which is actually a very loud breathy sound…
Household Uses for Rotten Cats
Reason number forty-seven why My Sister hates the Rotten Cats: The Rotten Cats have Super Laser Beam Eye Powers. I only wish that all three of them had been present with their Super Laser Beam Eye Powers when I grabbed this photo because the only thing that would torment My Sister more than this would…
Turning the Page
Time passed. Phase completed. Mission accomplished. My breath of fresh air last night gave me just the inspiration I needed to push through to these “ends.” Now I can turn the page, smooth the book open, and begin the next chapter.
A Breath of Fresh Air
Somehow, today got away from me…hence the post at just after the clock turns toward tomorrow. Too many deadlines, too much stress for too many reasons…all adds up to that overwhelming feeling of suffocation. Again. I think I am not quite back on track with my promise to refocus and concentrate on taking care of my Self…
Five Friday Favorites
Who knew it would be so hard to get back into the rhythm of our lives after last week’s Superstorm Sandy? And we weren’t hit nearly as hard as some. Maybe it’s just me. I’m pretty tired. Pretty worn out in a whole lot of ways. I did manage to collect a few favorite items…
What Really Counts
I waited in line for over an hour to vote this afternoon. In all the years I have been casting my vote, I don’t think I have ever waited that long. I expected to hear quite a bit of grousing (yes, I use the word grousing) from the long line of voters who were waiting…
The Aftermath
Hello again, Friends. We spent a few days without power and then a couple more without cable, phone, or Internet access. All has been up and running again since the Saturday After Sandy, but I have been caught up in some sorting…
Waiting for Sandy
Well, here we are. Our hatches are battened. Our emergency kit is filled. Our pantry is stocked. We are Boy-Scout-style prepared. We are ready. Sandy, bring it on! So far, we still have power and are just sort of going about our business like any other bad-weather day. As long as the power is on, the laundry is…
How the Rotten Cats Celebrate Autumn
The Rotten Cats love autumn, it seems. All three have been busy driving me crazy enjoying the fall decorations around our home, visiting with an old friend, and honing their haunting skills…
What’s Going On Today?
I’m going to be a bit MIA Tuesday night through Wednesday. Here’s what I’ll be doing… 1. Trying to stay as current as possible with the OnlineBlogCon 2012 posts. I came upon this online blog conference quite by accident, but I’m glad I did! It’s perfect for the life I’m living right now. 2. Sending hot…
