Saturday morning: I discover that someone’s cat has either a) climbed onto the hood of my car and went pee pee in the vent area between the hood and the wiper blades; or, b) gone under the vehicle and done that gross cat spray thing. The net result? When I turn on the air or […]
A litterbug comes in many forms.
Hey people, the election is over. Yesterday’s political signs are today’s trash. Take down your signs and put them in the garbage please. And on that point… once your yard sale is over, your sign is no longer an advertisement, but is garbage nailed to a tree. Am I the only person bugged by this?
Fierce? Um, not so much.
You have been on the campaign trail with your husband for almost two years. You know that you are photographed everywhere you go. You know your every move is scrutinized and talked about. You know weeks in advance that, based on the numbers, your husband is probably going to be elected the 44th president of […]
I think Beetlejuice was based on a Schoolhouse Rock segment.
We got a new camera. I haven’t read the manual. I haven’t figured out how to upload my Halloween photos yet. Therefore, no Halloween pix to post…. which may be a good thing since I still had a wine buzz at 6:00 the next morning. (Thanks for a fun night, Auntie E!) I have a […]
Happy Halloween!
There should be a courtesy test too.
Devin is beginning the process of getting his learner’s permit for his driver’s license. He has to learn the rules of the road online in order to prepare to take the written test. When I was in high school, Driver’s Ed was a course that all sophomores had to take. My teacher, Mr. Price, was […]
The Three Stooges. woo woo woo
I heard the distant sound of boys fighting. Then I heard a sharp cry of pain, more yelling and fighting. Mom: What’s going on out here!!?? Conner: Devin kicked me! Grant: Yeah! He kicked him inda balls! Mom: (trying not to laugh) Grant! We don’t say things like that! Why did you do that, Dev!? […]
Romance 101
I am a fairly romantic person. It’s the little things that mean the most. Write something sweet on a post-it-note and leave it in a surprising place for me and it will mean more to me than flowers and cards and jewelry. Seriously. Rich and I are pretty good at that. He’ll leave me notes […]
“If I only had a brain” ~ the Scarecrow, Wizard of Oz
This morning around 6:15 I walked out to the kitchen and found Devin rinsing some dishes in the dark. I suggested he turn on the light over the sink. “No, that’s OK because I’m only here temporarily.” He had to be up that early because he needed to walk to school today. This is the […]
I actually do like Necco Wafers…
This guy’s take on the most unpopular Halloween goodies is hysterical. Unfortunately, I have been previously guilty of giving Tootsie Rolls out to Trick-Or-Treaters. My rationale had been this: if I buy candy I don’t like, I won’t be tempted to eat any of it. Unfortunately, I discovered that I like way more candy than […]
