9/11 – Never Forget

Although we did not personally lose anyone close to us or our family in the 9/11 attacks, I will always remember that day with clarity and horror. Where was I? I was doing what a lot of Americans were doing, eating breakfast, playing with my almost 1 year old daughter after seeing my son off […]

My toes died and went to Heaven

I’ve just had a life changing experience, seriously! My friend asked me (very) last minute (thanks! Had to super shave my legs after dropping Pie at school!) to go along with her to get pedicures. Hmm, this is not something I’ve ever had done, or even thought about doing. But she really, really wanted to […]

A Thousand Word Thursday

I finally cooked, sieved and froze these tomatoes that had been lounging around on first my counter then the table for days. (The pile was much bigger byt the time I got to them, lol) Pie found this tomato amusing :) I also finally got around to shredding up all the zucchini that was strewn […]

Medium – My favorite tv show

I just spent my morning catching up on the Medium episodes that I DVR’d last spring. I cannot decide weather having DVR is a curse or a blessing. I always end up taping my favorite shows’ entire season because no one else cares to watch it and I cannot watch some of my shows when […]

Backhoe in my driveway

Guess what? The township guys decided to come today to dig up the driveway pipe. They chose today of all days to accomplish this. Never mind that today our new-to-us TV (How excited am I!!!!) is being delivered. I am seriously hoping that they will be finished by 2:00 because that’s when the delivery man […]

Random Ramblings from a Mad Woman

My poor blog has been neglected lately! I haven’t been able to find the time I need to sit down and get anything done! We’ve been so busy I feel like a chicken running around without a head! hahah! Chicken, get it?? no?? oh well, I’m tired and make no sense! Any who, we’ve gone […]

Super Genuis strikes again – or how the kids cool off

I would like to state here and now, just for the record, that my husband is a bad influence. Totally bad. Look what the kids are doing this very minute! I think the over 90 degree temps today may have went to his head. This, my friends, is what I see out of my back […]

Blueberry Picking, beaches and flea markets

This week has been full and fun! Tuesday we ventured to THE best place to pick blueberries! We happened to drive by it once last year while taking the scenic route, so glad we did! They are only $1.50 per quart, there are a few different varieties and tons of them! Mom, Pie, Mr.T. and I […]

Comment Confusion

I absolutely love comments! they make me happy, make me feel like someone is really visiting my blog and caring about something I have to say! What I don’t love is trying to figure out how to actually reply to a comment! I mean how do you do this effectively? I would like to reply […]
