Before I start my diatribe and gnashing of teeth a quick update. Things here have been crazy busy. I’ve been booking as many events as I can, including going to things during the week. So if you haven’t seen me out and about or at your place please know you’re not alone. I’ve barely been …(Read More)

Yesterday was the biggest day in the year for foodies- at least in the US. How big is it you ask? Well according to a doctor I saw on TV, the average American consumes 4,500 calories on Thanksgiving day. That is a butt load of calories for sure; however keep in mind that includes all …(Read More)

Contrary to the rumours, I’m alive and well. Well I’m alive anyway; but I guess you know that by now. And for the most part I’m well.   But after working two different events over the last 3 days, my body let me know it wasn’t happy with me. When I woke up Sunday morning …(Read More)

This is a special day in the blogosphere. One of the most special bloggers I know, Elisa of ECWrites is launching her book, Golden Sky tomorrow. It’s based on the journal she kept while she was pregnant with her son Zeke. It chronicled her pregnancy, his birth and his all too young passing at the …(Read More)

Since we’ve got two events going on this weekend I’m about to get busier than the proverbial one-armed paper hanger. We’re participating in a 3 day Christmas buying show in Katy at the Merrel Center; and once again Ecofab will be at Discovery Flea, the once a month market where everything is either vintage or …(Read More)

I hope everyone had a great weekend. For the most part all we did was clean. Due to my recent illness, the surgery that ensued, then the trip to Austin for Handshakes, no deep cleaning in our house had been done for a long time. I love a clean house. But I’m not one of …(Read More)

Yesterday was Amanda’s birthday. Our baby turned 26. I still find that hard to believe, since when my neurons are all talking to each other and not leaving me in a menopausal fog where I can’t remember what I said 2 minutes ago, I still feel 26. About 30 years ago when my mom was …(Read More)

Hello young ones. I hope your weekend was a good one. Last weekend we were in Austin at FFFF- Fun fun Funfest. Was it FFF? Well I saw a lot of people having fun. Ryan Gosling was there partying. Was it fun for us though? Not for us. What is was was WWW-work,work,work. It was …(Read More)

From what I’ve been told the worst is finally behind me- kidney wise- at least for now. That’s a good thing because after last night I don’t know how much more I could take. Yesterday was my post op visit AKA stent removal. Never having to have one removed before I really didn’t know what …(Read More)

It’s been almost 6 weeks since my last entry for the Bizarrometer and I just innately know that everyone has been deeply yearning for another one. I know there aren’t too many other places where you can go for such innately disturbing photos, view them, use some mental Lysol and go back to your normal …(Read More)
