Carl Wants To Catch My Raccoons!!!

OK, I think I am going to change the title of this blog because I just realized somebody else has the same title and given they had it before me, I figure it should be ME who changes their title. Anyway, my most recent conversation with my very mean husband. "There are six freaking raccoons out... Sign in to see full entry.

I HATE Wal-Mart!!!

I hate the lack of service, I hate the insane lines on a freaking monday afternoon because they don't have enough help. I hate the way when someone needs assistance we are treated like we just interupted their soaps! I hate, hate, hate bad service and it's just not worth the few cents of savings I...

I Speak Like A Writer??

Recently someone told me that I speak like a writer. I was slightly confused by what that meant and she explained. It seems I can never simply say the sky is blue, instead of decribe the ribbons of pink and amber that entwines itself through the lakes of blue. I thought about this statement and...

One Of Our Own Is Headed For The Next Oprah Book Club

OK, so I am probably getting ahead of myself and him! Our own Wiley.Coyote is having his book published. I can say with all sincerity that it could not happen to a nicer guy! Nobody is more deserving of all the good this world has to offer than our own resident sweetheart. I am so happy for him and... Sign in to see full entry.

Draw Your Own Conclusions--My Story

I am bound to hate myself for writing this later, but I feel the need to get it out there and let others know what child molestation is really about. I was 12 when it started. My mother had moved her still married,drunken, guitar playing boyfriend in and between the two of them I could have started... Sign in to see full entry.

Andrea Yates Retrial Starts Today

This is the mother that drown her children in her bathtub and claims post partum depression. I have suffered from depression and I have never been inclined to hurt anyone but myself, so I really have a hard time feeling any compassion for this woman. I have never suufered from PPD so I certainly... Sign in to see full entry.

The Guys In The Red Jerseys Won

Yep as Carl was falling asleep, I got out of bed and turned on the TV. Calling from the bedroom he asked "Who won?" It appears the Stanley Cup was on tonight and that appears to be a fairly big deal. "Well it looks like the ones in the red jerseys" I responded as a chuckle found it's way from the... Sign in to see full entry.

I Am So Proud Of My Daughter

About a month or so ago we were doing some volunteer work with the VFW for a Friday Fish Fry. The evenings always end with the crowd standing and singing "God Bless America". Given the VFW stands for Veteran's Of Foreign War, this is something that we do not take lightly. There were two women... Sign in to see full entry.

Mothers Are Not Always From Heaven

Please understand I am not trying to be nasty here, but explain a bit of a situation. 8-ball posted about being locked out of her home last night and her mother-in-law said something horrible to her child in the process. We got onto the mother-in-law subject and some honestly do not realize that... Sign in to see full entry.
