Wii Wii Wii all the way home

Sunday, November 30, 2008

Oh yeah.  There’s nothing like a baby on a time change to put a little extra spring in your step.  Or a little extra baggage under your eyes.  No, really–I enjoy waking up at 4:45 in the morning.  Almost as much as I enjoy cutting hound dog toenails.  It just hacks me off a teensy weensy bit that she goes back [...]

Back to the blog with a little Thanksgiving gag

Saturday, November 29, 2008

Um, yeah.  It really has been that long since I’ve blogged.  I guess that makes me either the laziest person on the entire planet, or somebody who seriously needs to think about off-loading a few of her dogs.  Or kids.  Possibly both.  In fact, would you be interested in borrowing some?  Just for a short time–say, six [...]

I finally did my meme

Sunday, November 2, 2008

Wow, talk about procrastination.  I was tagged by Mary at Mimi All Me to do a meme back on the 8th of October, where apparently I share 6 things about myself that nobody knows.

Fergie’s new tanning bed

Sunday, November 2, 2008

I’m sipping a glass of water (yes, exciting beverages abound when you’re trying to de-caffeinate yourself), and just happen to glance out the window.  And there she is, in all her patio table hogging glory.
