JD, may I use that phrase? I know you own the whole, “I *insert action here* so you don’t have to” concept. And it’s true! She does it ALL so we don’t have to. She’s a giver like that. She even ate sardines! I would NEVER do that for you… but mostly because my tummy [...]

In Which I Pimp Out My Bidness – My Pot Sale
Did that grab your attention? I hope so. I recently took on a little side job (the economy and all)… One could say I am a “warehouse liquidator”, or a “garden goddess”, but my personal favorite is “local pot dealer”. Where am I going with this? Here: Basically, I have keys to a warehouse of [...]

The Outtakes of a Video on Friendship
My friend Lisa of The Blozulfog and I made a little video about managing online and offline relationships. Stop laughing. I sent off a 44 second edited version (cut from 8.5 minutes of footage!) to BlogHer. It was supposed to be 30 seconds. I just can’t seem to be not-long-winded! In word or video-clip. I [...]

In Which I Share a Few Thoughts on Running and Music
Did you see my recent post… about how I recently baked a cake for the sole purpose of eating it by the row(s)? My post today is about 180 degrees in the opposite direction. It’s about running. Eeek – exercise! I have had a few friends recently ask me about what music I listen to [...]

Letting Go: Musings of a Mother
Before becoming a mom I never thought: I’d allow MY children to wear a saggy diaper. I’d yell at the sweet and innocent fruit of my loin. I’d wear socks with flip flops, but only in emergencies… I’d wonder if I had birthed the spawn of the devil. ***The “threes” are the worst. Watch. Your. [...]

A family adventure: the corn maze
My kids crack me up. My kids also make me cry. I am in a constant state of overwhelm when it comes to my offspring… the greatest of joys and the deepest of frustrations. Our outing to a local corn maze on Saturday was an extended time of joy for me as a mom. I [...]

A little project…
I enjoy photography… do you enjoy photography? I like playing with perspective-n-such. However, I do not consider myself a “photographer”… I would probably place myself into the category of “Woman who enjoys taking pictures and does a pretty good job considering she still doesn’t grasp that whole ‘aperture‘ thing”. That’s a long descriptive, isn’t it? I’ll [...]

This is my 920th post and also, the economy.
It’s taken me 4.5 years, but I am creeping curiously close to Post #1000! Whoa Nelly! 285 of which (plus a few) have all been created in 2008… I have Blog 365 to thank for that, as well as the rather unhealthy “bent” in my personality, that professionals refer to as… “Obsessive Compulsive Disorder”. Is [...]
