Boy, I am just now beginning to see that this blog can be therapeutic as well as entertaining. These past few days have been really tough but I am finding that with the support of some of the “bestest” friends I have ever had, grieving and remembering one of the best people I have ever […]

As in up out of the sump pump pit when the sump pump fails… You may have heard of, or even experienced the weather happening around here while Ike was pounding the Gulf coast. Rain. Lots of it. It wasn’t as bad as the storm system that hovered over us for days last year [EDIT:

Since I can’s seem to sleep (to be fair I did sleep away most of the day, and now I am bothered by my raw throat again) I thought I would blog a bit. Continuing in my countdown of the original 8 crayon colors I had in my first box of school crayons.

Got another ‘getting to know you’ quiz via email the other day. Since I still fill these out for some reason (don’t really know why I do this – haven’t my friends already learned all these things about me?), I figured I might as well post it on the blog. And this one prompted me

I’ll admit I got these super-cute animal pictures from an email foward… they are just too cute… The skeptic in me says, are they real? I looked on snopes.com and didn’t see anything, but in this age of photoshop, you never know. If they are photoshopped, the creator did an excellent job… Let’s pretend they’re

This is pretty cool. Watch the video and figure out which way the lady is spinning. According to the video, if you see the lady spinning to the right, your right brain dominates and your thinking is black and white and fact-based. If you see her spinning to the left, you are more creative and

For the month of August, I thought I was going to get away with an easy allergy season. Usually my allergies start around mid-August. Right on time, I had the itchy eyes, but no other signs of my fall allergies. Yeah!! All was good until the 10th of Sept. I woke up with the runny
