First, I could have sworn I posted recently. Wrong! Anyway, can you believe I had a four day weekend last week and still couldn’t get my act together here on my site? Yes! Really! It was a very nice staycation (was supposed to be a way better real vacation to Florida but that was cancelled…
Month: April 2009
Big weekend…
So, we went to a chili cookoff but didn’t eat chili and spent 3 hours Saturday waiting for the cops (which is why we didn’t get to eat chili). (And how was YOUR weekend?) Anyway. So, we dropped the dogs off and headed out of town to go to a chili cookoff in a small…
Spoiled rotten…
So, Gene did many sweet things yesterday! 1) He cleaned the guest bathroom! (Since we let the cleaning lady go, the guest bathroom is categorized as His Problem. Perhaps you think that the rest of the house being Largely My Problem makes it out of balance, but I think that this means there is one…
My Easter Egg Hunt
(or, Why did someone get here by searching for “Cooler than the Easter Bunny”?) Anyway…the year that we lived with Gene’s mom, we had custody of The Boy on Easter Sunday. And at that time, The Boy was young enough to believe in the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, Tooth Fairy, etc. And at that time,…
Big Plans!
So, I have two BIG fun weekends coming up. Next weekend, Gene and I are visiting a small town about 2 hours east of here for a chili cookoff. No, I don’t know why, but we have Marriott points to burn and our trip to FL was cancelled (stupid unraise) so we also have wanderlust…
Tried something new…
So, I have a pseudo-Bucket List. Instead of it being a list of cool things to do before I die, it’s a list of things that everyone else on planet Earth has done, that I haven’t yet. Currently on the list: drive a riding lawn mower, get in a bar fight (or maybe just a…
Deductible, be gone!
Hmm. So it is the end of the first week of April and I’m not finished with my $500 annual insurance deductible. Last year I polished it off by Valentine’s Day. Should I be glad that I haven’t had to visit doctors as often this year or annoyed that Blue Cross has gotten off scot…
Dear Facebook…
The next time you choose to upgrade your site, please include a “STFU” button. I like hearing about what is going on in my friends lives, but I do not like hearing about the 10,000 quizzes they took (“What Soda Flavor Are You?”, “Which Punctuation Mark Are You?”) while watching Law & Order one night. …
April Fool’s…
So… tomorrow is April Fools Day. And a certain husband of mine sure loooooves to “get” me on April Fools. I wonder what he has planned? The good news is that I think he forgot about it until this evening. I told the girls at work that if his idea for April Fools is to…
