I have no idea what sick puppy came up with this, but May 11th is Root Canal appreciation Day. I’ve never had a cavity, let alone a root canal, but from what I have heard they are not generally all that appreciated. But yay for not having to get dentures? May 11th is also my niece’s birthday. My sweet little… Read more »
Now that I’m feeling better I’m going to get back to my new favorite silly thing- Hump Day Holidays! And, I’m so happy that the first one I’m sharing with you is Star Wars Day. May the Fourth be with you all 🙂
Now here is a holiday I can really get behind! The rationale behind No Housework Day to remind everyone to take a day off from the busywork of running a household and to enjoy your family in a less than sparkling home because that’s what’s really important. That is lovely, don’t you think? I will admit, I’m cheating a tiny… Read more »
This week I’m sharpening all of your attention on Pencil Day! I personally prefer colored pencils for use in my coloring books. Markers seep through to other pages and are way harder to deal with when you make a mistake. I have terrible handwriting – always have.

Sorry I’ve been gone for a bit- I managed to get locked out of my own website. That takes true talent- lucky for me I have that in spades. While I was gone several folks voted themselves off the Presidential Wannbe Island, Valentine’s Day happened, and Iowa had 2 blizzards. Virtually everyone in North Iowa saw Hairball at the Surf… Read more »
As I’m sure many of your know, Joey Feek of the country music duo Joey + Rory is gravely ill from cervical cancer and is expected to pass away very soon. While reading about her struggle I inevitably came upon the posts from well-meaning folks who lament that if only Joey had used hemp oil/ frankincense/ thyme supplements/ etc. she… 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 »
