Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad!

Thanks for stopping by again! Why not stay connected by subscribing to my RSS feed.I’m taking a slight detour on this site to wish my parents a very happy anniversary!  Step back in time with me to their wedding day, 51 years ago!  Here’s a photo from the big day. Isn’t it sweet? I think Dad [...]

Green Bean Casserole

Just a quick update on yesterday’s post, and also a vote for Green Bean Casserole.  Yes, I like this stuff and I will be making it tomorrow.  And I’m not ashamed to admit it!  Also, my friend assures me that a 13 lb. turkey will be okay and not to worry.  False alarm, I guess.

Expanding Waists, Fun Boots & The Bird

 

In case you’re wondering why I’m blogging instead of freaking out in the kitchen preparing for the big dinner, it’s because we’re having Thanksgiving on Saturday.  No cooking or prep work until Friday.  We’re celebrating with our BFFs, after Hubby gets back from China.

So I hit Winco at 8:00 last night; it wasn’t too [...]

Is it a Clog or a Blog?

Okay, so I’m sitting at the dining table with Kiki (my 15 year old) while she reads over my blog.  I decide to text Hubby over in China (because it’s cheaper than a call) and I write:
“Have you checked out my blog lately.  I’m having so much fun!”
Only, because of T9 being on, it comes out like [...]

Contest Time

Haasiegirl over at MomDots Blog is having a contest for a Nokia E71 Phone ($500 value).  Why not join the fun?
Happy Friday!

My Life via Mail, Text & Voice Mail

I think one can learn a lot about a person by browsing through their current mail or listening to their voice mail, text messages, etc.  (Not that I would ever do that…I’m just suggesting).  Using this method, here’s a snapshot of my life this past week:
Mail
About 1 dozen post cards from various colleges
A fancy looking letter [...]

The 10th Commandment (of blogging)

“Thou shall not covet thy neighbor’s blog, it’s clever design, it’s reader count nor it’s popularity.”
Okay, so I’ve been doing some more blog research, to see what’s out there and to start (hopefully) making some connections.  But in doing that, I came away with some fresh green-eyed envy.  These blogs were graphic eye candy, perfectly balanced [...]

Getting Things Done….Sort of

Well, I’ve been away for a while getting things done.  Here’s a list of what I’ve accomplished lately:
-  Find used car for Mom (moi), so I don’t have to share a car with my daughter.  Done last Wed.  Yeah!
-  Have surgery on my back.  Done on Friday.  Home on Saturday. 
-  Say goodbye to Hubby as he [...]
