Happy Hallowe’en!!!

Munchkin is back from his trick or treating. This is the first year I haven’t gone with him. He’s growing up (11 years old!!) and he went with his friend in another neighborhood. He went as Dan from Bakugan. No you can’t buy this costume anywhere. I got to build it myself. Yay! So I’m [...]

Guilty Feelings

I’ve taken a vacation day for the first time in over a year. I stayed home with my sick Munchkin (just a head cold, thank the gods). I lazed around the house, made sure Munchkin did his studying and makeup work, caught up on my TiVo shows and futzed around here on the internet. And [...]

Hallowe’en is Almost Here

Hallowe’en is right around the corner. I am taking my first vacation in over a year for the next three days and the first day will be taken up with building the Munchkins costume. Two years in a row he has chosen a costume you can’t readily find at a store. Last year it was [...]

I’m trying to be strong, especially for the Munchkin. But I have to confess… I’m heartbroken. Seeing the Munchkin so sad. Watching the dogs mope around, looking for their master. It all may end up being too much for me. I’ve broken down twice, just for a moment or two. Then I notice the Munchkin [...]

My New Design

Here is the new design. Chosen by you, my readers. I had grand ideas of implementing this past weekend, but I got lazy and decided to catch up on my shows harvested by TiVo. Now you’ll just have to wait a couple of more weeks. I’m trying to spend as much time with Hubby before [...]

My Husband is Leaving Me

Well, physically anyway. He’s not divorcing me, we’re not trial separating, but he is going away. My hubby is becoming a sailor. He’s going to boot camp for 9 weeks, then school for 6 weeks. Leaving me here with the Munchkin, 2 crazy dogs, a rabid rabbit and a Japanese fighter fish. Not to mention [...]

Interesting TV Trend

I’m not entirely sure when it started. I think it’s fairly cool, makes television a little more real. TV shows are starting to show people smoking again.They had stopped a number of years ago. And it was such a big deal about seeing someone smoke on TV. It’s been a pretty big deal about people [...]

Soundtrack 4

Well, this hasn’t gone quite as well as I’d hoped for frequency of songs invading my thought-space. But here is the most recent list of songs. Baba O’Riley (Teenage Wasteland) – The Who Land of Canaan – Indigo Girls Breaking the Girl – Red Hot Chili Peppers Devil Town – Tony Lucca Hey There Delilah [...]
