I Live in Fear…

Friday, April 25th, 2008

… that one of these days Stacy and Clinton will show up and tear me a new one.
It’s not an irrational fear. My mother, father and husband have all expressed an interest in getting me a makeover. Or at least some new clothes. (Its not as bad as it sounds… I love that show and [...]

Forget Deceptive, I’ve Gotten Downright Sneaky

Friday, April 25th, 2008

I’ve given up.
I’m so tired of making nutritious meals that invariably end up being thrown away. Of course I make them eat at least a little bit, but chances are, those bites are the only thing that gets eaten. And the culprit is mainly veggies.
I’ve done everything the “right” way and still, my kids hate [...]

Lookee!

I finished revamping Jason’s site today… what do you think?
Serious Home Concepts
We are still working on getting decent photos from all of their previous jobs, but I think it looks pretty sweet!

Call of the Wild

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

This week is National Turn Off Your TV Week and last night at Ozzie’s school they had the organization Wild Things come and give a show in the cafeteria. We had a great time learning all about Opie the opossum, a Quindoo (which is like the Rainforest’s version of a porcupine), 3 baby alligators, a [...]

You Really Haven’t Lived Until You’ve Fingered a Chicken

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

Serama, the aforementioned biz-natch of my flock, has a prolapsed vent. It’s really, really not a good look for her. She seems fine, eating and pooping and laying eggs like normal, but with her butt inside out.
I isolated her in her very own coop, gave her a cozy blankie, soaked her butt in warm water [...]

Breakfast

Saturday, April 19th, 2008

So, my  big  chickens have turned out to be a couple of big bullies. My husband says “Chicks are like that” and then he laughs. Right now I have the chickens on a firm schedule. One day I let the banties out, the next day the big girls get to roam. So far, they are [...]

Hallo Guvnor!

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

I’ve been a very busy bee lately. And look! I’ve been working on a redesign for Ebb N Flow! I think it looks puuuurty.
In other news, I’ve been working on what I like to call “the quilt of no hope” although, really, it will be lovely when its done. Its just going to [...]

I LOVE PINK!

Friday, April 11th, 2008

If you have a minute, go take a look at the super cool contest over at Better in Pink! Even better, enter to win (I’m giving away 300 words of proofreading and 200 words of content writing!) I’m planning on something with feathers.

Serial Killers Need Love Too

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008

I have a new obbsession favorite TV show and I’ve been telling anyone who will listen that they should definitely watch it. But rent the first season on DVD, that way you don’t miss any of the disturbing, gory goodness. As someone who has always had a fairly healthy interest in the darker aspects [...]
