Well, our birthday is tomorrow, but since I don’t post on the weekend, we’ll just have to celebrate a day early!  Happy early Birthday to my duplicate Jennifer! 43 years ago tomorrow these little aliens entered the world! And before you knew it  . . . we were in school! And then the 80’s came along!   I am sure we thought we were both totally...

Let’s start out this Monday to find out who won the $50 CSN giveaway from Friday.  And the winner is. . . True Random Number Generator Min: 1 Max: 91 Result: 52 Carol says: March 11, 2011 at 10:34 pm (Edit) I have been in my house 24 years and I too have an ugly light fixture. I would love to change but have never...

I wasn’t sure what my work day was going to be like, so I knew I had to at least get a walk in before work.  I have this ugly bright yellow jacket I like to wear when I walk or bike outside – I want the cars to see me, but when the sun starts to set, the silver part is actually reflective. I...

He did this to me. . . I turned my back to the stove for a minute, I thought he was getting water at the sink, then next thing I do is turn around and see this . . .  and jump! You would think I would just throw the damn thing out, but I seriously forget about it! Now breakfast yesterday may seem weird,...

I had totally forgotten that I had tried to make baked paczki (“poonch-kee”) two years ago, until I saw that post got 100 hits yesterday!  They were just okay, but I may have to try them again next year. 😀 Since I didn’t do anything traditional for fat Tuesday, I had to drool over my friend Jacky’s shrimp etouffee – holy cow does it look...

Wow, I can’t believe its been 19 years already!  It doesn’t seem that long ago that a nurse put her in my arms and then stuck me in a wheel chair to escort me out of the hospital.  Wait, you want me to actually leave here by myself and take care of her?  While I was scared shitless, it helped that I was young and...

I was beginning to think it was just me yesterday, because my post wouldn’t publish, I had a hard time going on an WordPress blog, and when I tried to comment, it wouldn’t recognize my Open I.D.  Luckily Veronica e-mailed me and was having the same trouble – hopefully today will go a bit smoother! Two pictures I wanted to post yesterday and couldn’t –...

I’ve been thinking about this recently, especially since Tony has been through so much this past month, from being diagnosed with cancer, numerous tests, surgery and subsequent 9 day hospital stay. How could he have managed all of this if he lived alone?  How would he pay bills, take care of the dog, etc.?  His parents live in Florida, his son lives in Texas and...

When I went to the hospital yesterday morning to see Tony, none of his doctors had been by yet.  So I headed to work, but not without spending $1.65 at the cafeteria for 2 scrambled eggs, 2 turkey sausage patties and an english muffin.  When I got to work I toasted the english muffin, then with 1/2 ounce of cheese I had in the work...

1500 I can’t believe that today’s post marks my 1,500 post! I’ve said it before, but when I started this blog almost 2 1/2 years ago, I had no idea that I would form so many wonderful relationships from this blog.  That is especially appreciated during these last few weeks while Tony has been sick.  While sitting last week during his long surgery, every time...
