Over the years I’ve started so many exercise regimens that I’ve lost count. Some lasted weeks, sometimes I would stay with it for a few months, but nothing stuck. Alas, I am living proof that doing something for 90 days is NOT long enough to make it a permanent change in your life. I’ve joined gyms thinking that if I… Read more »
Top 10 lists are just too long for me. Top 3 lists are more my speed- ha. Top 3 Ignorant Things to say about Obama #3 He’s Muslim. Michele’s official portrait features her in a sleeveless dress. That pretty well puts it to bed right there, but if you need more- He was sworn in on a Bible twice and… Read more »
Thank you for not laughing too hard at the pity party I was having for myself last week. I am feeling much better now. To continue that theme I am counting a few of the perhaps more obscure of my many blessings. I usually do this in November, but there is always, always something to be thankful for.

I am well aware that it’s been over a month since I last posted. It’s not for lake of trying. I’ve just been annoyed with social media in general.

I bought myself a coloring book last week. It’s full of beautiful drawings of cats in intricate surroundings. My husband thought it was a gift for my niece who turns four today, but nope, it’s for me. And I am loving it. It’s just one example of me not taking myself too seriously. It’s a skill that took time,… Read more »

Either they have the most inept polling and PR agencies in the history of the universe, or they have polling and PR agencies that are actively out to destroy them. These are the only explanations that make sense to me. As I’ve stated many… Read more »
One of the only good things I’ve found so far about getting older is that the number of things that really piss me off has gone down exponentially. It takes a lot more to get me fired up now that it did 20 or even 5 years ago. Along with the proper medication I like to think I’m mellowing with… Read more »
“Are you going home for (insert name of holiday here)?” It’s a pretty common question asked of those of us who don’t currently live within a stone’s throw of the house they grew up in.
