WARNING: MAJOR RANT AHEAD. So once again I am inundated with emails and rumors (thanks Dad. *NOT BFD, my actual one) that (shock, gasp) Barnes and Noble is an EVIL, SCARY BAD company that allowed a GAY PORN book to be left on a table repeatedly and (gasp, horror) be seen by a child! Okay, sarcasm aside, I would be irritated and be inclined NOT to frequent a store with that particular issue, but as a patron of B&N for many years....I'm suspicious already. Beware, here comes...

I love pictures of my kids.  I love having pictures displayed on my walls, on my computer and in my wallet.  I love to see the ones I love and remember moments I loved as I look at pictures.  I wanted "good" pictures and didn't feel like my meesly efforts were worth hanging up.  So I dutifully went to a studio and handed over money.....But I hate paying the overcharged prices for subpar pictures at overcrowded studios where after my kids have waited so long they are overti...

Yawn. I am so so tired, but I have so much to do. I really just want to crash and take a nap. But I have so much to do! ***************** above was written this morning. Since then I have.... * registered a car for HW...it's a yellow Ford Aspire with nifty flame jobs on the sides.

I love Christmas...everything about it. I love the music and the lights, giving gifts, spending time with friends and family, decorating, mint m&ms (only at christmas!), the food, everything. I love the spiritual meaning behind the celebration, but I love the magic of the season for the kids. I love how my son really believes in Santa and thinks that Santa was hired by James Madison. (long story....but J.M. is his favorite president) I confess, I even love how stores start decorating in ...

Forward: I tried to post this at about 5 am but Joeueser was not cooperating, so imagine yourself with your morning coffee or whatever, bleary-eyed and just starting your day.... Sometime before 4:30 this morning, (I don't know when because I refused to open my eyes), I was awakened by the sounds of my daughter Maddy and her friend Sophia laughing. I pretended I couldn't hear the 2 year olds and tried to sleep for a few more minutes. But eventually, the laughter turned to tears and I ha...

So I woke up and realized that with HWs recent departure that I forgot that payday was on Friday...I was supposed to pay bills! EEEKKK! I logged on, hoping that I could get everything paid before there was a late charge. Sometimes my bank can take a buisness day or two to get an online payment completed...or maybe it's the creditors? Anyway, I logged on to my bank account and ..... Panicked! There was nowhere near enough money in the account to cover our bills. What happened? How co...

Larger Pic so you can see detail Link HyperboreanWanderer and Boy were playing with The Car. The Car (yes, it needs capital letters) just got new "shoes" and they were putting on the finishing touches (center caps). And here is HW himself, to tell you the fancy car numbers and stuff.... American Racing Wheels Torqthrust II mags, 15x8 in front, 15x10 deep-dish inset in back, with BF Goodrich 235/60s up front and 275/60s in back. They're the same size as I had before, but ...

So yeah, I'm barely halfway through the day and this is my life. I'm queen of short term memory, Princess of forgetfulness and mother of all that is insanity. I'm already frustrated this morning. I had a dr. apt and he completely ignored what I had to say, prescribing me sleeping pills even though I TOLD him that I didn't want them. He said, "You are just overly concerned about your husband's deployment and that can effect your health..." GRRRR. I left the exam room and immediately sp...
