Let’s Get Shallow: Making Time for Personal Care

I don’t know about you, but sometimes, time just seems to get away from me.  Heck, sometimes LIFE seems to get away from me.  One minute and I’m on track and working my butt off.  All is good.  The next minute I look in the mirror and I’m a mess. How did I let that happen? I [...]

Heading Out to Get the Cars

In case you missed it last week, we had some automotive challenges in our home.  Trust me, Thursday wasn’t a fun day to be me. Luckily, by late afternoon Friday, our cars were ready to be picked up. It only took three buses, a late lunch at the Apple Pan, a couple of blocks [...]

And the Results Are In…

My fabulous doctor called while I was out last night (yes, she truly is fabulous and I can’t recommend her enough and yes, that call was afterhours at 8:30PM!). She had the results from Monday’s CT scan. Get this…no polyps, but I apparently have a sinus infection! Yes, you read that right…as sinus infection. No, I [...]

Caution: Mentalist at Work

It sure was nice to take last week off from blogging (outside of the one Michael Jackson/Forrest Lawn photo post).  Better still to have taken the time off on all three blogs (and the contests).  Granted, it wasn’t something that I actually planned to do, but it still felt good.  I refused to let myself [...]

Let the Holiday Weekend Begin!

Sometimes half the fun of an extended holiday weekend is to have nothing planned. So in that case, I’m ready for this weekend. Mind you, the husband is gone for the day. He headed out not too long ago to spend the night catching up with an old friend. So the boys and I [...]

I’m Not a Numbers Person…

…but I love what you can learn from website analytical and statistical information. You not only get the basics like pageviews, but you get the down and dirty specifics….the keywords, the when, the where, the IP addresses, if they’re logged in from work, how long they were on each page, the how someone found your site, [...]

Every Gal Deserves a Night Alone From Time to Time

Tonight the hubs is heading off to somewhere in the Inland Empire to connect with his youth.  He’s heading out to see the reunion show of the band he used to roadie for back in his long-haired, late 80’s.  As much as I’d love to meet the guys that played such an important part in [...]

Looking for the Perfect Eye Shadow

I’m on a quest.  Much like I was looking for the best drugstore mascara not all too long ago (found it…Maybelline Stiletto).  This time around, I’m looking for the perfect all over eyeshadow.  You know, that one shadow that you can wear daily that doesn’t necessarily look like you’re wearing shadow, but just kind of [...]

Who You Calling a Klutz?

Oh, me. Yeah, I guess that could be true.  I have been known to trip over my own two feet.  It seems I can’t go for a walk in the neighborhood without stumbling or tripping over something – usually uneven sidewalks, unseen curbs (don’t ask) or sprinkler heads. It’s gotten to the point that my husband [...]

Annnd We’re Out

It seems so wrong to even be posting this, but for those of you that know me (especially those lurkers from my past that still follow along for whatever reason) have heard some of my stories about the evil grumpy, angry, old lady that lived next door.  Our first couple years here she made our [...]
