The Confessional – Maggots

Here I am WAS  bidding for a job… a job with some level of visibility for a local financial institution…(when I originally posted this) yet I can’t resist. I should let them think I have it all together… just let them believe I run my home like a well-oiled machine. Why can’t I let feeding [...]

A post in which I make fun of my pantry-keeping skills.

I decided to clean out my pantry recently. It was like a great big junk drawer of canned, boxed and bottled food. Apparently I have been stocking up on the necessities.

“99 loads of laundry on the bed, 99 loads of laundry… fold one up and put it away… 100 loads of laundry on the bed. 100 loads of laundry on the bed, 100 loads of laundry… fold one up and put it away… 101 loads of laundry on the bed. 101 loads of laundry on [...]

So…

In an earlier post, I was a little “ranty” about the painter/circumstances with our new place. For an update – it is all working out (and the red walls are so yummy it makes me want to lick ‘em). The painters are making good on delivery. I’m cool. Can you feel it? Pretty much, there [...]
