Tired lioness by Tambako the Jaguar, on Flickr The Pie Dudes and I just returned from a week long trip.  I think I might have finally caught up on my sleep, but I’m pretty sure I was looking like the lioness above as the beds felt about as comfortable as that log looks.  Our […]

Laughing Star by cindy47452, on Flickr Have you listened to a late night show and throughout the entire show found there was someone out in the audience whose laugh was shrill, or loud, or just annoying?  There’s some woman on Craig Ferguson tonight that just won’t stop with this annoying “weeeeaaaaaahhhhhh woooo” noise.  Makes […]

In listening to this evening’s news, there was a piece about “lawmakers addressing the increasing rise in gas prices.”  My ears perked up and I got sidetracked from writing my scathing letter to the camp we were going to send the Pie Dudes to but after a series of very misfortunate events, pulled out before […]

A continuation of the thoughts posed [here]. Between the ages of 6 mos. and 10 years, our family packed up the station wagon and headed to Silver Lake State Park in Michigan.  But then in my eleventh year of life, our summer vacation plans took an abrupt turn - south.  We packed up our […]

Today consisted of scheduling and filling out forms for summer events and activities.  Why anyone needs my email address on an emergency form is beyond me.  I’m guessing it’s for notifying parents of an injury that didn’t result in emergency medical treatment.  Another portion that was disturbing was the unilateral release of photos, video footage, […]

Many moons ago when my Dad was still alive and many moons before that when I was still a young whippersnapper living at home back in the Midwest, my Dad would play a game with the three of us kids while we were all out in the car waiting for my Mom to get out […]

I’m with the firm belief Walt Disney hated kids. Conspiracy theorists will love me on this. I’ve come to conclude Disney was someone who understood the benefits of copyrights, trademarks and registered symbols. And he had a love affair with money. As for that much, I’m unable to add pictures to […]
