Yep, I got me a shiner. Only, on the chin.
Today, I got in a fight with a bungee cord and lost. (This is probably proof that I should pay more attention-slow down-quit trying to do 10 things at once, or, that I am just very, very clumsy.) Because I am very classy and haul a [...]
Halloween ended with my kids coming into possession of more candy than they can ever possibly eat and me not blowing chunks. Yeah!
Ozzie, the Indian brave. Excuse me, Native American brave. Er, indigenous peoples brave?
Ivy, showing off some Pikachu tail.
Hope you had a good one!
I woke up at 2:30 am feelin funny. Not good funny, hot and cold funny, scratchy throat and rumbly stomach funny. And then I threw up. So, yay, I’ve got the flu. No fairie costume for me. No trick or treat. And I have a midterm Tuesday, so if I’m laying around I really feel [...]
Ivy has amassed quite a collection of makeup supplies lately. A couple of the homes we’ve cleaned out had all kinds of Mary Kay and Avon makeup samples in them, clean and sealed, so I let her have some of them. She has a special box, full of her jewelry and makeup.

Saturday morning I was puttering around in the garden when I heard a terrible hissing noise and found one of my cats engaged in mortal combat with, of all things, a hamster. A hamster who had obviously seen better days, as one eye was swollen shut and half of an ear was torn off. I [...]
In attempt to ignore how uncomfortable I was this weekend (you’re not sick of hearing about that yet right? ) I made myself a skirt out of this unbelievably cool “Mehndi Safari” fabric. I added pockets in the front, a zipper and a contrasting blue waistband, just for fun. Its very twirly and fun! [...]
Saturday night was the big 30 year anniversary party for my parents. I just have to say that it was a rousing success. Excellent food, a huge crowd, tons of drinking and dancing and laughing and more drinking.
Why do I have a picture of the cake instead of my mom and dad? Because I actually [...]
Jason turns 34 today! He bought himself a set of drums on Sunday so he got his present early, but it was too good a deal to pass up. Here is the birthday boy, rocking out:
My Easter Egg Bantams arrived yesterday! They are super cute and really, really freaking loud. Hence, they are living in a rubbermaid bin in the sunshine during the day and in the warm garage at night. Here are the new ladies:
This is Twinkle… can you guess who chose that name?
This is Serama the [...]
