And that’s just what they’ll do… A long, long, long time ago, in Eric Years anyhow, I was diagnosed with Diabetes… this was back in April of 2005. I remember the day. It was “Donut Day” at work and I’d just had about my 20th donut (slight exaggeration for hyperbolic effect) when I started havingContinue reading “These Boots were made for walking”

It’s Official!
Most of my regular readers will actually know this already, due to a flurry of emails I sent out earlier (but not MUCH earlier!) As of today, I am no longer unemployed! At about 3:30 p.m. today local time, I accepted an job offer from a local governmental agency. Once things are really secured, I’llContinue reading “It’s Official!”
Planning a Road Trip
I collect minutiae. I don’t recall it, but I do collect t! Well, at least when I travel. When I was growing up, we took lots of road trips. We drove to the east coast, and to Canada. We drove once to Mexico City. Days were filled with traditions. We always started early. Very early. Continue reading “Planning a Road Trip”
More on Our New Puppy
Okay, as I’ve said before, he’s not a puppy. But it’s hard not to think of him as a puppy. He’s got the most charming personality, and loves to give doggy kisses! As I mentioned before, Gary wasn’t sure he liked the puppy’s name, and was considering changing it. Monday, Gary says “I really don’tContinue reading “More on Our New Puppy”
Ophidiophobia
My last post briefly referred to the “snakicidal tendencies” of my earlier years. I really was quite surprised at the number of people who have commented on that portion of my post, a post primarily about a new dog! Those snakicidal tendencies… probably better referred to as herpetocidal tendencies… stem from the fact that IContinue reading “Ophidiophobia”
Forecast be Danged!
This morning, Scott and I dutifully watched Channel 6 weather so we would know how to plan our day. That dreaded four letter word was used. Snow. But, the good news was we were told we could expected a few flurries, and a light dusting. It’s been snowing steadily, and heavily, for the past 4Continue reading “Forecast be Danged!”
Princess Nikki
Scott and I share our lives with Princess Nikki. Or is it Princess Nicky? Or Princess Nicki? Or… well, we never have, really settled on a spelling for her name – but that’s neither here nor there. For information how this little darlin’ came in to our lives, you can read about it here. PerhapsContinue reading “Princess Nikki”
Out of Touch
Hi all, I’ve been a little out of touch. My laptop has developed some issues with connectivity, and for a while I couldn’t stay connected for more than a few minutes at a time. In the end, I had to completely reformat my hard-drive and reinstall Windows. I’m still in the process of loading software,Continue reading “Out of Touch”
All Rolling Pins are not Created Equal
Scott and I have lived in our home for over 10 years now. We’ve done a lot of remodeling in that time. Floors, kitchen, walls. We never had a house-warming, and we’ve really done very little entertaining. Just once about 5 years ago, we invited a few friends over. In the interim, we’ve hosted dinnerContinue reading “All Rolling Pins are not Created Equal”
Rambling
An Idea, an idea… my kingdom for an idea! That’s what these past two months of silence have been like. I mean, sure I’ve been doing lots of stuff… but none of it has seemed to be something I want to write about. This past week, I’ve opened my “Live Writer” every day. And everyContinue reading “Rambling”
