Did you HEAR about THIS?!

I couldn’t believe it when I heard this a couple weeks ago and yet there are still people who don’t know.  I guess I can see why.   And every time I see or hear the original information, it’s like opening the wound anew.  I still don’t understand WHY they had to postpone the release date of the [...]

Things My Grandma Tried to Teach Me

My Grandma was a woman who liked to do things. She was a strong woman who loved her family deeply. She lived most of my life in Southwest Virginia. When we would visit there where just some things you learned by being there.

Work isn’t a four letter word and it’s the most fun when you can [...]

Chocolate Chip Cookie Crisps??

This has me absolutely baffled.  I’m not the greatest cook in the world but honestly, I can follow a recipe.   All the ingredients are in there (though Kevin is sure I have to have missed something).  It is humid and warm today, but still?  Enough to have cookies turn out as thin as crackers?
I just don’t [...]

I’m Doomed!

Kevin and I have a theory.  It’s one that began after we’d been married 15 years or so and now that we’ve hit 20 years it’s just kind of a running joke between the two of us.  We’re doomed. 
You see, if, as we do believe, we are married for eternity and there’s nothing we’re going to [...]

I’m nuts not nut’s…

So, truth be told, I tend to be a bit crazy about my grammar.  When I was in school it was my best subject.  I knew the rules, even the ones I had trouble with.  See, that’s a dangling participle.  It should read, “even the ones with which I had trouble.” ?  Or something like that, [...]

Speaking of K.

We went to the local botanical gardens this week (another one of my favorite places to take photos) and she let me take a couple pictures.

Some things shouldn’t be encouraged

I usually don’t forward emails.  I don’t try to encourage others to side with my view of politics or any number of issues.  Even though I’m pretty opinionated, but things can get pretty sticky when you do venture into those types of topics.
I even hesitate to bring up the subject of this post.  I do [...]

“I’m gonna need more rope!”

After waiting for years and years our patience finally paid off and someone finally realized that Freakazoid needed to be shared once again with the masses. Our family absolutely loves Freakazoid. His alter ego is a computer geek. Freakazoid is blue. He can’t fly, even though he’s a super hero. He runs around town with [...]

Here’s to Amazing Women

Relief Society is the women’s organization in the LDS church. There is a post on Segullah about Putting the relief in Relief Society that just helps illustrate why I love being a member of this organization.  The women are simply amazing.

Scratching my head…

G. was lamenting the fact that he won’t be working a future Journey/Heart concert.  Apparently there are some of their songs that he and his friends just LUUuuv. 
HUH?!
