Its just Tuesday
(Preview)
I can't believe its only Tuesday. This week is just dragging. Good news is next Monday we have some odd holiday that is allowing me to stay home...YAH...
I just found out that one of the guys that works here was diagnosed with some kind of brain tumor over the holidays and recently died. I didn't know hi...

A mindless game...
(Preview)
Here's a little game that you should bookmark for those days when you're especially bored. (I'm thinking of Shelly from a couple of weeks ago.)
It's addictive, not overly challenging, and rather pretty.
See how brain dead I am?
Enjoy...

An Alarming Night...
(Preview)
...so to speak.
A little after 2:30 a.m., our burglar alarm went off. When the noise finally penetrated our sleep, Jim and I went to the top of our stairs, turned the alarm off so we wouldn't wake the neighbors, and peered down the stairs.
The front door was wide open.
Obviously, we weren't going d...

had to share...twins at 20 weeks
(Preview)
I just found this completely fascinating. That and I had no idea that they were already a pound each. I figured they would be a pound together
At 20 weeks, each of your babies will weigh approximately one pound! By 24 weeks, they will have gained another half pound and will be approximat...

A Sunny Sunday

Gearing up for the Inauguration!!
(Preview)
The traffic here is already NUTS, and it's going to remain that way until after the Inauguration is over. To make matters even worse, "they" (although I doubt it's Obama's team) have decided to CLOSE most of the BRIDGES from Virginia into Washington, DC that day. ????????????????? Hello...

Thursday
(Preview)
Well, finally, my hurt over the mess with my parents has turned into anger, a good thing! Yesterday I caught my father listening in to a phone conversation I had with my mother (who actually phoned ME, a first in many months, and she was surprisingly lucid) and the weight of it all lifted in an instant. Ph...

Rug
(Preview)
KaeEll, I took a couple of pictures of my rug that looks so much like yours. I did this a couple of weeks ago, and it was when I had some lamps on, so there are weird shadows, but I think you can tell in the lighter part of the border that it's peach.
Anyway, here are a couple of close-ups...

A little bathroom humor...
(Preview)
Dave Barry is always good for a laugh, and I thought that we could all use one! Some of you may have read this before, but I hadn't, and almost choked from laughing! (This was forwarded to me by my former boss, by the way: Crazy Mario in Arizona.) Even if you've never had a colonoscopy, you may have experien...

Icy Wednesday
(Preview)
So I woke up this morning with ice literally all around my car. I have never had to attempt to scrape ice off my windows before. Anyone have advice on how to do it easier?
I tried to load my pictures last night but for some reason couldn't get it to come up. Grr....I am sleepy. It seems like I alternate slee...

Recipe help
(Preview)
Okay, I am doing meatloaf at church tomorrow night and plan on putting the meat into cupcake tins instead of doing the large loaf. I kind of figured that it would save me time and would make serving that many people easier. Would also make clean up easier. But am having a hard time coming up with a recipe. I...

Well today is my first day back to work in like 3 weeks and wow was I missed. Lots of work to catch up on. Probably about 3-4 inches thick of work orders that need filing. Thankfully one of the guys here closed them for me. Phew. As it is I probably have about 100 that need closed anyways. Good thing to keep me b...

First Friday of 2009
(Preview)
It looks like today will be a new start in many ways for us. I had a nasty row with my father on NYE as he and my mother arrived 3 hours late for a dinner invitation, and no phone call. And they had taken their phone off the hook. This morning as I called there to make sure mom was up and getting ready for her stand...

Kids and the Golden Rule
(Preview)
Over the past weekend I had lots of contact with the little ones over here and was pretty concerned that little V was becoming a tad too bratty, notwithstanding that she was overtired and cranky. There were a few incidents that irked me to no end and this morning I spoke to my son about it being high time fo...

Christmas Eve day

Hi all! We were up at the crack and I got the stuffing started, house smells of sage and apple, yum. The orange things are simmering away getting ready for peeling and slicing, Mike is up, Ted's ensconced in his office downstairs, so all is right with the world so far today.
We're heading over to Tony's...

My time had come and I asked our lord to show me the truth of all things
He took me to a place where angels and heavenly spirits awaited the souls of men
There were two paths that led towards entrance into our lord's heaven
One was bright and shone of heavenly glory and an amazing light, one without equa...
