Next Time, Daddy Can Take The Drama Queen!
This past Tuesday, I took The Diva down for her first ever school physical. Even though she had her yearly physical in March, the school district needed some “extras” including a urine dip, TB test, complete blood panel, blood lead test and an iron level. I even got her to pee in the cup. Want […]

Sensitive Child Or Hall Monitor?
My daughter , I think, is destined to become a hall monitor. She regularly opens the living room window and yells at the neighbor kids to get out of the street. She yells at people to stop honking their horns, a regular occurrence in our neck of the woods. For some reason, no one can […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday…
This is the family of Woodpeckers we saw when we went to Oak Glen two weeks ago. The pictures don’t really do them justice. The red was so vibrant. I love seeing nature in action. Mama woodpecker was on a branch right above our heads. Then she flew over to see her family. Waiting for […]
For My Daughter…

Just Another Wordless Wednesday…
This is the beautiful peacock or kee-cock, as The Diva calls them, that we saw as we were feeding the baby deer {Bambi} outside the “Mountain Safari” museum at Oak Tree Village in Oak Glen, CA {Next to the Petting Zoo} last week. My Aunt and Uncle took us there to celebrate The Diva’s birthday, […]

Who’s Acid Tripped, Mushroom Fueled Idea Was This?
Have any of you seen this children’s show, Oobi? Do any of you get it? My daughter is being entertained by hand puppets. Nekkid hand puppets. That sort of talk. And sing. It’s like Teletubbies for 4 year olds. Except…not. This show just freaks me out. They wear little plastic googly eyeball rings as a […]
I Need 300 People…
OK, it’s getting down to the wire here. I am reposting about the fundraiser for my Big Bro. I know times are, well, pretty sucky right now. I get that, but if I can get 300 people to donate $2-5 each, I can make my goal. I just want to help my Big Bro NOT […]
Surreal-ity, An Earthquake And A Little Horny Dog
As some of you may know, my Mother~in~law died this past Friday morning. It was expected and unexpected at the same time. In the last couple of years, her diabetes started to take its toll on her and shut down her kidneys. She has been on dialysis, in one form or another, for the last […]
Blogging For A Cause: Asking For Some Of That Bloggy Love For My Big Bro
This has been extended for 3 more weeks My Big Bro, whom I love dearly, has had a rough time of it lately. He had a good job as the Network Administrator for his local school district and worked in the rental office of his apartment complex to supplement his income. He lost both jobs […]
Things The Diva Said…{Or Did}
I was on the phone with my best friend Carol a couple of weeks ago, walking through the kitchen, when The Diva came up to me and said “Mommy? What is compensation?” Ummm, huh? I heard Carol Ann fall out of her chair, because she was laughing so hard, as I tried to explain compensation…to […]
