(right now, what I really wish I could say is YOU PEOPLE MAKE ME SICK.  “YOU PEOPLE” being anyone involved in the real estate shithole and also the “people” who may or may not foreclose on our perfect house) Ok…I think I’m back on track with this whole “I’ll finish the draft” thing, now.  Last [...]

When I started blogging, I had no idea what I was doing…no idea how to get “followers” or “friends” or whatever you want to call YOU PEOPLE (Personally, I like to call you my crash. And for that to make sense, you’ll have to read this…the relevance is near the bottom with the rhinoceros). Then [...]

You know when you look at a word for so long it just looks…WRONG? Adult has gotten there for me. To the weirdness. At this point in the looking-at-a-word-too-long delirium, I’ve come to the conclusion that adult is actually supposed to be pronounced “Ahhh-DUUU-LTT.” Yah. I have no idea. I’ve found that the absolute best [...]

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” [...]

I’m trying to be more proactive.  More involved.  More userfriendly. MORE…OUT. Sooo….I tried to be all technology savvy.  I’m not sure if I actually did it without assploding something important.  But I made an attempt, albeit a feeble one.  And that’s really what matters. Or so my shrink tells me. (I don’t even *have* a [...]

I should totally call this week the week of fresh fruits. Just like this surf board says: Except…there’s only one moldy looking lemon? Where’s the rest, as “ADVERSITSED……” The hell? At least I kept up MY end of the bargain. SEVEN DAYS. SEVEN POSTS. ALL fresh and new. Very much unlike those fruits. Should we [...]

(This conversation happened only because we have super strange, obviously inappropriate billboards.  Or, we just take them at face value.  Either way, the result is this) Tim: Ummm…how do you indirectly cremate someone? Me: Huh? Tim: You didn’t see that billboard?  It said, “Direct Cremation! $95!” Me: Wha?…. Tim: So, if they do DIRECT cremation, [...]

Y’all…something crazy happened. I’m thinking it might be from the chlorine from the pool.  Tim and I went swimming this morning…laps…cross training…it’s a new thing for us. I decided to reward your awesomeness…reward you putting up with my lack of responding…reward your loyalty…your readership. Every day this week…I’m posting SOMETHING. For you. What about next [...]

I posted something earlier in the week on Twitter and Facebook.  I have no idea if there is a simultaneous option where one thing will post in two places at the same time?  I’ve yet to really come to peace with either…so obviously, I’ve already confused myself. Then?  I saved this post as a draft [...]

**Maddie Update** First: I want to thank everyone…so, so much for all of your kind words, positive thoughts and prayers for Maddie.  After Monday, we made it through Tuesday and Wednesday without another seizure and so far today the seizure monster hasn’t returned.  And I’m certain the lack of said monster has much to do [...]
