Blogger Tragedy and Signs of Spring
The weather is warming up and we have been spending more and more time playing outside. Yesterday while we were outside I was spying on Rachel while she “gardened” around the corner from me. She had my little garden trowel and was digging holes in the planting beds. She would plant her imaginary...

All Right, I Know I Suck – But I Renewed Anyway
I recognize that my posts have been brief and sporadic lately. And I would like to thank all three of my loyal readers who still show up and check them out, even if they are lacking in quality, substance and well just lacking. I have renewed my subscription, so I will most likely be hanging out for...

The Sleeper Must Awaken
You know that many of our common sayings are based in truth (much like that cartoon stunt I pulled earlier this week). The saying “Never wake a sleeping baby” has several layers of truth. The first being that you never know with a baby when you will get them back to sleep again. The second one...

Why Can't I Kill It?
Despite my best efforts over the weekend I did not kill my computer. I tried overloading it with tasks, ripping cd's, surfing the 'net, writing in my word processor, and playing music. It did get a little slow. But it never died. It did get quite warm, but it never shut down. I guess my husband is...

It’s Alive!
Do you remember that commercial, where the guy accidentally checks his notebook computer as luggage at the airport? When he gets to the end of the flight and retrieves his computer from the luggage carousel he hits the power button and it starts right up, and he shouts out (like the mad Dr....

I Thought It Was Something That Only Happened In Cartoons
You know the cartoon where someone tosses a banana peel on the sidewalk and some hapless villain steps on it and goes skidding down the street? Well let me tell ya, it works! Yup I went scampering to the front door with a box of recycling to put out when I stepped on Emily’s discarded banana and...

Who’s That Strange Man At My Door?
I’ve actually given up hope that my laptop is ever going to be repaired, In fact after sending back to the same repair depot three times in the last 8 days (twice in the last two) I’m pretty certain that it is destined to be a very expensive paperweight. I’m just hoping that the paper it weighs down...

Change Daily
Sometimes I wonder if as a society we are just getting dumber. It is the only thing that I a can come up with since I read “Change Daily” on the tag in my new panties. Do I really need instructions on how to wear my underwear? I suspect that it is partly because North America is such a litigious...

Help! Help! Help Me!
If I am posting this from jail, I hope that you will have some pity for me. Emily, my dear, sweet, youngest daughter, has learned at the delicate age of two that if she screams out “Help Me!” when I am carrying her away from the toy section of the store against her will I will get a lot of...
