It’s Bourbon Ball Time!!!!

  Yes, it's that time again! Time to order your holiday treats!!!! Jayne has been bugging me about the Bourbon Balls for a few months now so even though it has been unseasonably warm in these parts, and I'm not really in the holiday spirit yet, it's going to sneak up on all of us so now is a great time to order these treats.

Death in the Family

And it's all my fault. I killed the hermit crabs. At least I think I did. It's hard to tell since they don't do anything. Hermit crabs aren't like the cat or the dog. If you forget to feed or water then they make noise, they drink out of the toilet, they throw their bowl around until someone notices and feeds them. I

The End of Summer

Image by Mark Sardella via Flickr School starts in exactly one week. I'm so excited I can't even tell you. I can't tell you because now that summer is almost over the kids want to cram every little bit of activity into the remaining days of summer. And at the same time they are bored! My daughter, the one who hates school is looking forward

The Wearing O’ The Green

Happy St. Patrick's Day! My daughter wanted to wear green today. Her wardrobe consists mainly of pink and red but I recently bought her a green shirt and a pair of pants. However, because she spends ever other weekend with her father I wasn't sure the green outfit was here. I dug through her dresser and thankfully located both shirt and pants. I was happily

I Lost a Whole Year!

Yesterday my daughter was talking about her birthday. She is already making a list for what she wants for her birthday this coming February. I don't know if she realizes that she is skipping right over Christmas of if she simply realizes that she won't possibly get everything on her Christmas list. Of course she still believes in Santa so she probably was just mentally

Little of This and a Little of That

I got a bunch of stuff today but not one item is enough to make a full post. I think this might qualify as Random Thoughts Tuesday. I finally have a delivery system for my eBook. I'm using E-Junkie. So far so good. It's cheap and really easy to use. And no one has to wait, while I finish up in the bathroom, to get

Just in Time for Christmas…Holiday Depression

I was blazing through the season.  I put up my lights and started decorating the house for the holidays, I watched animated Christmas specials from the 70's with my six year old, and enjoyed them more than she did. I baked and baked. And then I hit the wall. I don't know what happened except that the reality of the season probably took over. I

Ever Have One of those Days?

This day started out so promising. I woke up early, and refreshed (which never happens), so I grabbed a cup of coffee and decided to jump on the computer before anyone else was awake. I woke at 5am so I had another hour and a half before anyone else was likely to stir. I stopped at a few websites and in my visits I stopped

Halloween is Coming

You wouldn't know it by looking outside, it really looks like Christmas or at least Thanksgiving but Halloween is just around the corner. I'm one of those moms who waits until the last minute, when there are no good costumes left, to buy my kid their costume. This is one of the many reasons I never get nominated for Mother of the Year. This year

Tales of a Freelancing Whore

When I am not blogging or writing I am freelancing. I would much rather write all day but since these blogs of mine do not come close to paying the bills I am forced to actually work sometimes. I am using the term "freelance" broadly here. What I mean by freelance is that I will do any job you want me to within reason. I
