This week’s food storage item

Hey it’s Tuesday and I’m just getting around to this.  High praises for all of the people who bought their stuff last week: Mindi Tiburon (extra credit for really stocking up!) Jenn Tiffany (?) Did I forget someone? This week, let’s take a break, OK?  I’m going to be busy… Read More

Yes, I saw it

I went to see Twilight on opening night.  Yes, I liked the books. They were very addictive.  Kind of the literary equivalent of a candy circus peanuts.  Yummy, but not filling. Good every once in a while, but not too often. The movie was pretty much like the book. The… Read More

Redemption

I gave a talk in church today. I wrote it and stuck to the script.  There was no humor to be found. Boring? Most definitely.  But I think I redeemed myself after my testimony fiasco. How did everyone do buying stew and chili this week?  You have one more day… Read More

20 Q

Do you have the little handheld game called 20Q?  It’s based on the game called 20 questions and is eerily, freakily correct most of the time.  We have one of these floating around our house (actually I think we have two) and every once in a while I have the… Read More

A Day in the Life

 My life on November 20, 2008 (or thereabout) Where all the magic begins: Although it’s hard to believe I have any sort of self-discipline, I usually get up at 5 a.m. I like to walk/run while I blog and watch old episodes of The West Wing (I have all the seasons… Read More

It’s the day before Friday.

Hey all you “day-in-the-lifers”, make sure to finish up your picture-taking today, so you’ll be ready to post it all tomorrow.   We want good stuff too.  Not you perfectly-coiffed wearing high heels while you vacuum.  Let’s see some nitty gritty!

They have me pegged

I don’t know if you ever read the blog “Stuff White People Like”. It’s hilarious.  Today they have perfectly captured me and my musical tastes. Click here to read it.  Don’t worry, it’s short. (But then you’ll get completely distracted and read lots of other posts.) By Hildie | Filed… Read More

Unflappable

This is Adelaide Amelia.  She has a very strong personality.  Not strong as in pushy and bratty.  Just extremely confident. Last night was the perfect example.  At bedtime she insisted that she did not have to go to the bathroom.  And I, ever the idiot, believed her.  So at 1:30… Read More

You know you want to

So bloggy friends, I was thinking of a fun “sharing time” activity, but I’m only going to do it if there are a bunch of people who are interested.  Ok, I’ll probably do it anyway, but it will be funner if more people play.  It’s A Day in Your Life.… Read More

Gold star girls

All right, we’re pushing the food storage item back by a day.  Arianne seems to think it will make a difference somehow.  So you need to check in on Monday mornings to report and find out your new item. How did everyone do with the beans? (I know, Tiburon!  You… Read More

Where’s my walker?

Holy mother-of-pearl! I found two, two, two grey hairs on my head yesterday. I realize that I am 37 and that this was bound to happen.  (My little sister has been going grey for years. Sorry Ari, I had to tell.)  I have been suffering from this crazy, insane notion… Read More
