When I heard that Buddy Guy and George Thorogood were playing at our local Auditorium, my first thought was to get the tickets, get the kids and go! My kids have been listening to Thorogood’s Greatest Hits album during carpool for almost 3 years. They can sing and shout along with most of the songs, [...]
My youngest announced that she might be interested in the position of President of the United States someday. ( Personally, I have always believed she has the Right Stuff ). She wondered what the job entailed. I gave her the basic rundown: keeping the peace at home, balancing the budget, maintaining successful relationships with world [...]
At some point, my rambunctious little boy transformed into a 5 foot 5 tall, 110 pound rambunctious puppy. He bops around and rolls and bounces into things, and now he can be heard coming down the hall with the footfalls of the Jolly Green Giant. It’s like Clifford the big red dog has arrived and I’m [...]
I really don’t get automatically flushing toilets. What exactly is their purpose in life? Do the potty powers that be not trust the general public to flush after themselves? I’m not disagreeing, just trying to figure this out. Is it meant to be more efficient at saving water or reducing waste somehow?
My personal experience is [...]
Summer vacation…week five already! Here’s how it’s going so far…
Week one:
Stayed home with the kids for the first couple of days coming down from the end of the year activities. Way too much T.V. but lots of bonding time with the new kitten. Spent a lot of time trying to determine it’s sex and come [...]
It’s day 5 at the beach house, and we haven’t seen Thelma and her sidekick, Louise, for days. As soon as we arrived, Mermaid K3 and Blondeshell K2, BFFs, disappeared into their self titled “dorm.”
The mini mighty amazon girls settled in Kid Animal-House-Style: clothing everywhere, snacks hidden under the bed, a big jug of spring water [...]
The husbands melded back into the work world and left the moms and kids to fend for themselves at the beach rental house.
Wonder Women that we are, we fixed the dryer, did laundry, made and tidied breakfast, fixed the collapsed shower curtain tension rod, made and tidied up lunch, fixed the bamboo Ikea blinds and [...]
O-k, so can somebody tell me why I have a peacock faux diamond hair comb and a heart-shaped diamond ring the size of a kiwi? I looked at my vanity this morning and had to remember what exactly was going through my mind when I flipped out the magic plastic for those items last night. [...]
Oh absolutely keep the bag. Summer is coming and we all need a little white something - even if it’s got a little black something on it. That just means it’s yours! You can spot it in a crowd. If someone tries to take it, you can say, “It’s mine. I know because it’s got [...]
As said, the Church of Saturday Night Tequila knows no shame until Sunday morning. Tequila is a great party friend, but it will kick the crap out of you when you’re down the next morning.
Some even experience it leaving the body, making it impossible to forget the deal you forged with the devil. The deal [...]
