MY RECENT POSTS

Today we're gonna take it down a few notches to a more serious note.

Stop laughing.... I can do serious!

Yesterday, after a semi-heated debate on the topic that we are all talking about this week: Haiti, Pat Robertson, and Rush Limbaugh; I was left in gut wrenching sobs for aRead full post »

Well I finally got all the Christmas decorations packed up and put away. No, I am NOT one of those who think it is acceptable to leave the decorations until, like, Valentines Day. You know the people that I'm talking about though; the ones whose house you drive by at JulyRead full post »

I recently got back from that much needed holiday trip to visit my parents and my brother - you know, encouraging that biological connection. The bro just bought a new house, redid the floors, is redoing the kitchen to the tune of some $15-20,000 and also moved my parents in with

It seems to be the theme to write about the weather right now. It's cold, it's snowing, who cares. It's not like it's never happened before. The only difference is that God forgot to turn the A/C off in Florida and we are in a bit of aRead full post »

Christmas has come and gone once again; and once again, I am so over it. All that anticipation for one stinking hour of flying wrapping paper, cats successfully tearing all the ornaments and garland off the tree, and kids squabbling over who got the best item out of Santa's stinkingRead full post »




So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun

And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas
For weak… Read full post »

I was gonna write about the holiday season, but since this bronchitis from hell cold has taken over my life for the past week, I'm gonna write about last Christmas; food to be specific.


I'm sure most of you are busy slaving away like pigs in heat baking and cooking in your kitch

So I'm writing to you today as I'm nursing/over medicating a cold, so if I sound a little nasal, or delirious, it's because I'm on a Robitussin, Benadryl, NyQuil, Lexapro trip right now - bear with me - and let us all thank GOD all the kids are in school.Read full post »

I came home today completely prepared to knock off the rest of the holiday decorations, minus the tree cause the rest of the kids can't seem to get themselves in their tree-decorating mode. I walked into the house, and I don't know, but I think I was having some sortRead full post »

My Christmas Kitties from Hell!

It's that time of year again where we folks painstakingly drag our holiday decorations from their cobwebbed infested corners because we haven't paid much attention to them since last year. I have to wonder why we do this when it causes more arguments, cussing, and back injuries just so weRead full post »

My 4 year old got her own Facebook account last night. Now before all you moms start calling me a "bad" parent and reporting me to the Facebook cops and whoever, just hear me out on this one.


I've been on Facebook quite a bit these past few monthsRead full post »

A Prima-donna Morning

Today should have been a Monday as hectic as it was. Started out smooth until it came time to get the midget ready for Pre-K. See, I had an appointment at the middle school to help out the twins during a cooking class and being late was not inRead full post »

R.I.P. My Sweet iPhone




Some of you already know that my iPhone went by the way of the wind yesterday. I've been depressed every since. As I let my iPhone connection die, I cried and I curled into a little ball on the floor of my computer room while sucking my thumb
