Been a bit down

The only reason I am admitting this is that my poor husband doesn’t read my blog…LOL!  Mom, Kenny, and Michele – if you are reading this, don’t tell Brian I don’t want him to worry needlessly. It’s harder being a single Mom than I thought it would be.  David is having a rough time.  He [...]

Sitting here feeling sorry for myself…again!

I’ve been by myself all day.  David spent the night with Mimi last night and then called first thing this morning to ask if he could stay again tonight.  Normally I probably would have said no, but relented because here at home he misses his Dad. So I’ve spent the day doing stuff around the [...]

Picture of the Day Blog

Last January 1st I had every intention of starting a blog to document kind of a “Day in the Life”…only it would be a “Photo of the Day”.  My plan was to take a picture every day…it didn’t necessarily need to document my life, it was more of an impetus to get me carrying the [...]

Blogging Frustration

Those of you reading this probably already know that I love my baby brother!!  I mean, just outright adore him!  That was not the case when we were young and stupid and lived together under our parent’s roof.  But know that we are separated by over 1000 miles, I can really appreciate his wit and [...]

Are you a child of the 80′s???

God know I am!  I ran across this list and laughed so hard my sides split.  I am, most definitely, a child of the 80′s…and proud of it!!!  All that great 80′s music is programmed onto my iPod and I reminisce frequently. See how many of these you relate to: You wanted to be on [...]

Crossing off an item from Life’s To-Do List

Something I’ve always wanted to learn to do is bake bread.  I had intended to do it last fall/winter, but the time got away from me and I never did get around to it.  I WILL do it this Fall! I finally broke down and bought this book.  It’s a book that has been on [...]

OMG…I’m stuffed!!

Have I mentioned how much I love Korean Food?  WOW!  Korean food is the BEST! My Dad discovered Korean food in Fresno, CA of all places.  He stumbled into a Korean restaurant when there visiting some family.  The restaurant was not terribly busy so he decided to give it a try.  What amazed and impressed [...]

Wesley the Owl by Stacey O’Brien

What a fantastic book!  I read a review of this memoir in People magazine a couple of weeks ago and knew it was the book for me.  I picked it up at the library today and started reading it at 10am.  I finished it at 10pm tonight…couldn’t put it down. Now if you don’t truly [...]

COFFEE….need….more…COFFEE!!!!

I bought one of these Tassimo machines a few years ago when they first came out.  Primarily because it was so easy to use…rather than the traditional espresso machine that I’d had before.  I love the darn thing! You have to purchase coffee “pods” that go in the front top of the machine.  A sensor [...]

I can admit it…I’m a SNOB

There are just some things that I won’t compromise on…tomatoes being one of them. My family get this…so it didn’t surprise them when I brought home my favorite souvenir from my Oregon vacation and it was some huge heirloom tomatoes! LOL! My paternal Grandfather, “Grampa”, lived across the street and 3 doors down from where [...]
