This is my attempt at using my camera’s new found “flower” setting to try to achieve pictures where the subject is focused but the background is blurry. I think I did OK, for just learning I even had the feature. I have to give a big thank you to Marcel, who wrote a post about [...]

This post was inspired by the fabulous KillTruck’s post A Period Piece. She posted Kotex’s lastest commercial which is rife with sarcasm, something I love. DUH! So I sent the link to my friend Victoria who in turn sent me this little nugget from the BBC. I love the BBC. I will avoid cleaning my [...]
So, I have been nominated for the Hot Mom Blogger Calendar for the month of March. Fitting because my birthday is in March. However, a couple of my friends are also nominated along with me. My bloggy idol, The Bloggess, Kadi Prescott formerly of A Womb At The InnSane, now Girly Gazette, Jenna from The [...]
It’s time, once again, for Small talk Six! On Saturdays. Today’s topic is “6 celebrities you had a crush on when you were a tween or teen“. You can answer this with a list of 6 words, 6 phrases, 6 sentences. 6 paragraphs, 6 photos, 6 videos, etc… Ahh, the 80′s. That was my era. [...]
I remember the 2008 Presidential campaign. I remember waiting for Obama to actually enumerate what it was he was planning on changing. His slogan was “Change you can believe in”, yet he never did truly say what changes he was planning on making. All I ever heard was more of the same tired Democratic rhetoric…big [...]
This is what happens when the real estate industry gets greedy and buyers get stupid. But why does it always end up across the street from your house? An agent brought a a perspective buyer to see this poor house over the week~end. She was too afraid to go in and we watched her stand [...]
Well at least that’s something I can agree with, no public funding of abortions and no “socialized” or “centralized” health care system. But there are so many things in this bill that I do not agree with, it’s hard to enumerate them. Before all the left wingers go crazy on me, let me say that [...]

I have been on a mission for a while now to get The Diva a good toy box. The old diaper boxes just aren’t working anymore. The problem is that all the ones I have found are either too small or too expensive and I certainly can’t afford a custom job. I think I will [...]
Just a bit o’ Irish humor for you all today. As always, if you are seeing lots of these… You’ve had too many of these… And need to stop doing this… Or people will start calling you this… You will then want to start some rumbles, when all you’ll really be doing is… Please don’t [...]
I guess it was bound to happen at some point, I just never expected it to occur a mere few days after she turned 5. Seeing this made both proud and sad. Next, she will be into my make-up and dress clothes. My baby is growing up, far too quickly for my taste. I cannot [...]
I have several posts sitting in queue because they are halfway finished, but I can’t seem to finish them. I can’t seem to get my Shan’s Week-End Wordles posts up. I can’t seem to write anything that I find even partially coherent enough to post. I’m lucky if I get a Wordless Wednesday up. What [...]
Last week was Dr. Seuss’ birthday and it was celebrated at The Diva’s school. Ever since then, she has been obsessed with him. And Green Eggs and Ham. Yesterday was The Diva’s 5th birthday and when asked what she would like for her special meal, she said, you guessed it, Green Eggs And Ham. Being [...]
Yeah, I got nothing interesting today, so I am posting a video Trisha showed us. Because I think it’s funny. But if you don’t blog or do any kind of social media, you may not get it. Viva le Dorks!! THE NEW DORK – Entrepreneur State of Mind (Jay-Z ft Alicia Keys Spoof) For more [...]
Oh Miss Ro, today is your 5th birthday. I cannot believe that my baby is so big now! You have almost finished your first year of school and you are doing so well. You can write your whole name, read books, draw beautiful pictures and are so creative. You are so intelligent that I had [...]
It’s time, once again, for Small talk Six! On Saturdays presented by MomDot.com. Today’s topic is “6 items that are on your grocery/shopping list every single week”. You can answer this with a list of 6 words, 6 phrases, 6 sentences. 6 paragraphs, 6 photos, 6 videos, etc… Hmmm, things I buy every week? Well [...]
Tracy and Loma Linda, California are now going to charge residents $300 for every call to 911 with an option to pay $48 for unlimited calls for one year. If you are not a resident of Tracy or Loma Linda, it will cost you $400 per call. Is this a creative way to make up [...]
I thought this picture looked like an angel flying. It was taken after a rain storm we had a couple of weeks ago. And I have a thing for clouds. I have no idea why. I just love them. Except when they’re brown. For more Wordless Wednesdays/Wordful Wednesdays, please visit MomDot.com, The Mud Bug, 5 [...]
Today is my 39th birthday. Which means next week The Diva will turn 5!! Oh my God, when did my baby get so big?? Anyway, I refuse to turn 40, ever, so I will be 39 and holding in perpetuity. I also have to attend the funeral for my Husband’s Grandmother today. And before y’all [...]
