My 8 year old daughter had to get glasses. While in school she was having a lot of headaches. We thought they might have been caused by her long hair that we had cut about 3 weeks ago, but daddy promised to bring her to the eye doctor when he went to his appointment. Her […]

So I now have this handy little app on my phone for when I see something that I want to post. Today at the grocery store I saw the above magazine. Notice it’s the premier edition. I find it mind-boggling that someone thinks there’s enough of a market out there to support a magazine on […]

I decided to take today off work to get more done on the house. Today I’m working on something I’ve been working on for awhile – refinishing the built in bathroom cupboard. I took out the shelves easy enough, and just sanded and painted them on one side. Then I started stripping the cabinet door. […]

So we looked outside around 11 and saw a floral ahop van in the parking lot. It looked like they were landscaping the front area. I went outside at lunch and they really need to learn how to landscape. There was still grass and weeds growing in the area. They barely touched the plants. They […]

So I may not always like the company I work for, but they do try. We just got an internal email, they’re donating $10,000 to the Red Cross, and bringing  about 30 cases of food to Moore today. The food they’re bringing doesn’t need to be cooked, and I’m sure it’ll go fast. They also […]

I started to get irritated this morning.  I reached my year at my new job, and promptly lost 12 hours of vacation time. I got my new 2 weeks, but they only rolled over 40 of the 52 hours I still had from last year. My boss is seeing what can be done, but I’m […]

I’ve been doing some looking back with my birthday tomorrow. I was thinking last night, how I always put an emphasis on the day. I used it as a deadline for things I wanted – for someone to ask me out, for a job or to hear back from the college of my choice. None […]

So, the last few weeks I’ve been refinishing our kitchen cabinets with a heat gun and a scraper.  It’s not horrid, but it’s not the most fun thing in the world. Hubby’s grandfather was there when I started working on Sunday and asked why I didn’t send the pieces home with him so he could […]

So, tonight I confronted someone at work who has been making my life miserable.  She’s had this attitude, and then turned around and complained that another girl and I were doing what she does— whisper, whisper, whisper. Maybe we are, but it’s complaining about her behavior, that no one will do anything about.  My new […]

I honestly can’t think of a title tonight.  It’s been a rough few months, and I’m just at a loss. It’s great that we have a house and will have it paid off by August.  That was one of my dreams, to own a house free and clear.  A dear friend of mine said it […]
