This is why we need to move out of California: Not only is everything uber expensive, but it’s filled with idiots who don’t know how to properly use decimal points. For more Wordless Wednesdays/Wordful Wednesdays, please visit 5 Minutes For Mom and WordlessWednesday.com {HQ}.
The Diva did a fundraiser at school for Easter. It was See’s Candy. She sold a lot. Well Daddy made his co-workers buy a lot. She won a great prize. I had laid all the candy out on my bed so I could mark who’s candy was which and Zoe, the beautiful-but-demon-possessed-cat decided that it [...]
As many of you know, I have an intolerance for The Free Range Stupid and they are attracted to me like flies on shit. No joke. I have joked many times that if I ruled the world, things would run much smoother and my friends agree with my statement. So in an effort to perpetuate [...]
No, this is not an April Fool’s joke. I am going to try to post something everyday for the next month…like I did when I first started this blog. Back when I could write engaging and humorous posts easily. Those of you who have been readers since the beginning will remember those…That’s what NaBloPoMo is all [...]
Look closely at Santa’s eyes…does he not look like he is stoned? Methinks Santa was toking on the ganja with the elves behind the toy shop. Doesn’t The Diva look adorable? I loved that dress because it reminded me of a big Christmas present. And no, the stoned elves did not make the picture look [...]
The week before Thanksgiving I had this adorable little Pilgrim. The night before Thanksgiving, I got a precocious Smurf. And this is also why The Diva will never get her paints again. HEH.

Today I am starting a new meme, Music That reminds Me Of… {insert season/holiday/special occasion here} We are starting off with Autumn, because it is one of my two favorite seasons. Oh, yeah, and today is the official first day of Autumn. So that was rather serendipitous, wasn’t it? Music is oftentimes a very visceral [...]
I am the crazy Cat Lady. We own one indoor cat who is beautiful, but demon possessed. And I feed the strays. It started out last fall with 4 almost adult cats. Then a couple of more got wind that I fed cats every night, so then there were six. Then a couple of months [...]
Oh that Diva of mine….she has her own style to be sure. She loves to dress up in pretty things. Then go climb a tree or make mud pies. She is a girly Tom-Boy. Just like her Mama. Only I was always shoeless. Climbing trees, playing in the dirt…beating up the boys who annoyed me. [...]
Last Wednesday, The DIva started kindergarten. SHe was very excited. Tired, but excited. ANd as any good Mom should, I took pictures. None are teen years blackmail worthy though. Damn it. She wouldn’t look at the camera and smile. But isn’t her outfit adorable? I just love a little girl in plaid. It’s all so [...]
Today, The Diva starts her first day of kindergarten. Yesterday, we went to Back To School Night and met her teacher.

Yes, you read that right. My FIVE year old has grey hair. What the hell is that about? She’s FIVE. At least I was seven when my Big Bro found mine. Heh. I plucked that sucker out, put it in an envelop and marked it “The Diva’s 1st Grey Hair 8/2/10, Age 5 years 5 [...]

The Diva is, shall we say, a bit eccentric. What? But she’s only five, how can she be eccentric?!?! If you lived with her, you’d know what I am talking about. She has always been different.

The Diva graduated from preschool at the end of last month. She starts Kindergarten on August 11th. Summer is only 6 weeks long this year.
