Updates!

My dd had a blast at outdoor school…got stuck in a bog for a few minutes but that’s the worst that happened. My mom had a great time, too. The refinished room is done!! I’ll put up pics tomorrow or Tuesday am.  Dd loves it. My parents will be coming back early next year…we’ll be attacking the living room, floor to ceiling. (can’t wait!)...

Bad Drug Reaction!

Entrecard friends, sorry I was MIA yesterday…we had a crazy afternoon and something scary happen last night that kept me off the computer and nearly put me in the hospital. My luck lately has not been good! I had a very bad migraine yesterday evening and took some Exc. Migr. like normal. My sinuses were also killing me (part of the reason my head...

More Work…

My dad decided that while we were redoing my dd’s floor, it would look good repainted, too. And while we were at it, might as well paint the trim! More work! It’s going to be a totally different room. So today is the second coat and the floor has to be stained. Wow…That’s what happens when you buy a 1920’s farmhouse! Dd’s coming home...

Check This Out!

Look what popped up by surprise! This was given to me by The Un-Mom today! How cool is that?! I found her awhile back and am a stalker now 😀 So following blogosphere etiquette, I’d like to pass this on to a few of my faves, Mummy Diaries, It Is Nap Time, and Blue Monkey Butt!

A Tornado Hit My House.

Ok, not really. Catchy title, though, right? My house just LOOKS like it’s been hit by a tornado. And at this point, it would be easier to deal with. My parents are here visiting for a week and a few days. So all their stuff is around. Which is fine…I’m used to that part. *back story= When we first got our dog, he went...

Like Lemonade in the Summer!

Last Friday night was another Girl’s Night. I love those. I come home so renewed, feeling so good. This time it was at a friend’s house (we rotate). We brought white elephant gifts to exchange; I ended up with a kitchen angel another friend makes. One of the women brought a bunch of baking stuff she didn’t want anymore, so I got muffin/cake molds...

Down with PETA!!!

Ok, another “Are you kidding me???” moment! This one is serious though. I was totally shocked and appalled at the hypocracy of PETA, a supposed animal-saving organization. Read this. I’m not much of a soapbox person, but really, this is one of those moments. News of this needs to be spread. Something’s got to be done. This needs to be brought out in the...

Sad Stuff Yesterday.

This week I got news of a man in church that had passed away. He was only 62 but developed severe Alzheimer’s. He was a very generous, kind, happy-go-lucky man and at the end was nothing like his former self. I bawled at the funeral, not because I knew him well, but because it’s sad to see someone like that go. But I guess...

Oh, Waaa! (sarcasm)

This is definitely one of those “Are you kidding me?!?” moments.  Seriously, some people need a hobby…or a job…or a life…or need to go stick their head up an elephant’s butt before they complain. “BRIDGEPORT, Conn. —  A judge has brushed off a Connecticut woman’s claim that L’Oreal Inc. ruined her social life when she accidentally dyed her hair brunette with one of its products....

Trouble w/Entrecard.

For whatever reason, I just can’t get into entrecard.  I’ll keep trying so I can read & drop like normal, but if you don’t see me today, that’s why. Thanks for stopping by and thanks again for the sympathy & well-wishes regarding my burn. The 1st degree ones are already healed, but the 2nd degree ones (w/scabs & blisters) are a little more stubborn.
