Tell Me Thursday
The story behind yesterday’s Wordless Wednesday begins at our local library. They had a “Night of Superheroes” where the library employees and volunteers dressed up as various superheroes. Then the children came in and they had lots of activities set up including creating a cape and mask. That is what Andrew is wearing. By the [...]
Wordless Wednesday
Easter Weekend Special
I recently signed up for a 30-day trial for a product. I have an order confirmation that states the charge will not hit my account until April 11th. Well guess what? It hit last night. I could probably fight it and get it reversed and recharged on the proper date, but that won’t help me [...]
What’s for Dinner? Homemade Pizza
I rarely plan ahead for dinner. I usually wait until 4 o’clock or so and then rummage through the freezer and cupboard. However, today while browsing through the posts in my blog reader, I came across this post. I had some left over sausage in the freezer. Plus I have a bread maker, which has [...]
Aha! It’s the apple juice!
The other night I was tired and wasn’t feeling well. I had to run into town to cash my child support check so it was easy to get talked into McDonald’s for dinner.

Parents could examine the curriculum and take part in an actual lesson presented exactly as it would be given to the students.When I arrived at the school, I was surprised to discover only about a [...]

Wear Sunscreen
I came across a blog post today where somebody in the comments area posted a link to a YouTube video somebody had made to the “Everybody’s Free (To Wear Sunscreen)” speech by Baz Luhrmann. I loved it then, and I love it now. The video really does have some great advice. I hope you enjoy [...]
Desperate for Money
I often find myself in a financial situation where I am desperate for money. I scramble to figure out where it can come from. Is there something I can sell? Somebody I can borrow it from? Maybe an invoice I can collect? While I’m tempted to make a plea on my email groups, communities, or [...]
