This is what happens when you win a caption contest. An entire day.  An ENTIRE POST. Dedicated to you. (Somebody really should check my medication) So, today, kids, we’re going to learn all about Hamlet’s Mistress. She and her blog are an eclectic, certainly never what you would expect kind of activity. BLAM! Somebody just [...]

Before the torture, we have to annouce the winner of the caption contest – as judged by Tim (aka The Husband). By the way, great captions, everyone!  Thank you for indulging me! So, the winner…….who will have their very own day of AWESOME next week…..is….. (there really is no way to build suspense for this kind of thing on [...]

I love writing captions for pictures that captured such a perfect moment.  It’s one of my all time favorite things to do. So please, indulge me and play along.  I don’t really have anything I can give away…unless it is time.  And I have loads of that.  Wait!  I know!  How about the winner gets featured on my blog [...]

***UPDATE*** Dear Everyone visiting from the amazing Studio Bold : it’s only a short, temporary break (I feel like I’m in an episode of Friends. “We were on a break!”)! So, please, enjoy all of my misadventures below, subscribe if you love it and stay tuned!! I missed my booshy-versary again (missed it last year, [...]

I love to shovel snow! And we got blasted yesterday and last night…so…. YAY!     (I know.  I look like the Barney version of the Stay-Puff Marshmallow dude) PS: Maddie hates…no…loathes…her jacket. LOATHES. I’m all, “Maddie! Lexi! Look at me!” Lexi: Fine. Sure. Girls!  At me!  Look at me!  Maddie! Lexi: Yawn.  Seriously.  It’s [...]

I swear I’m not *trying* to procrastinate more than I already have with all of those draft-posts-to-turn-into-published-posts (though I’m sure you’ve all long forgotten that at this point, anyway.  Which is kind of what happened to me and the reason I have so many drafts in the first place…).  It’s just… Well…. The thing is….. [...]

Ok.  So, technically, I’m talking Farmville – not Farmtown – since I, at least, had a brief stint with that Face place app thing…I sucked at keeping the plants and crops alive – smart move, Face place, on the animals being self sufficient or else they’d be kicking the bucket, too.  Anyway, I liked Farmville for all the [...]

I’ve been waiting for….at this point, FOREVER, to spill the hugely (is that a word? probably not) massive, ginormous secret that I couldn’t even give hints about to anyone. Actually, it really hasn’t been *that* long…but you know me and patience…. And FYI, “anyone” included immediate family, the friendly neighborhood squirrels, or my imaginary friend, [...]

(I must preface this with: no matter how bad life becomes, you always have cartoons) Did you ever watch David the Gnome? On Nickelodeon? The one who was like, Protector of All Things Forest? During every single episode, David would somehow become privy to information on the current forest emergencies – probably from a hummingbird [...]

Tim and I are cut from the same cloth that says, “WE WILL WIN, DAMMIT.” And the part where we say “WE WILL” means at all costs to life, limb and personal possession.  In the end, we may not *exactly* win, but we fought like hell trying.  That’s what counts. Yesterday was the 20th “running” [...]
