Living out loud in the Carolinas

Month: April 2011

  • I’m on the Comedy Zone’s email list and the other day I saw they were giving away tickets to Craig Ferguson‘s show.  I replied to the email but my hopes weren’t up.  They sent the email out at 10 am and I didn’t see it until 1 pm so I thought my chances were pretty…

  • CSP & I were doing some shopping the other day when I spotted this little guy.  LOVE him!  Slow Boy’s job is to help people slow down in your neighborhood when your kids are out playing but I just want him cause he’s super cute!  Check out his jaunty cap!  He holds his safety flag with…

  • I’m hooked on Cuties!  We picked up a bag at Sam’s the other day (they were a LOT less than they were at Target).  They are tiny little seedless sweet mandarins.  Easy to peel.  SO yummy!

  • I get the occasional email and Facebook message from people wondering how the adoption is going.  Well, up til about a month ago it was going pretty well.  Our social worker came to visit and do our individual interviews last month and it went great.  But we have had some more speed bumps.  We are…

  • Happy Easter!  Happy Spring!  Hope you and your loved ones have a wonderful day!

  • For Earth Day CSP & I changed out all the regular bulbs in our house to CFLs , or swirly bulbs as we call them.  Just the downstairs alone that was 17 bulbs!  They are brighter and whiter than the old school bulbs plus our electric bill will go down I’m sure.  We received 2 packages…

  • So I’m a couponer now.  I haven’t gone whole hog yet with a big system, but I’m doing better each week.  I’m getting better deals all the time and it’s pretty exciting to start with a GIANT subtotal then walk out paying less than $20. Things I’m NOT doing: Going to more than one drug…

  • By now you’ve probably read at least one article that discusses the uproar over the ad pictured here that appears in the new J. Crew catalog.  Basically, the company’s president paints her son’s toenails hot pink.  Conservatives and right wingers have gone nuts.  Erin Brown of the right-wing Media Research Center called the ad “blatant propaganda celebrating…

  • Molly is addicted to warm laundry.  That girl will seek out a pile of warm laundry no matter where it is.  I couldn’t believe when I found her like this!  She climbed up on to the sofa, then the sofa arm then climbed into the laundry basket!  It was like a kitten climbing up a…

  • Ok, so now you’ve read about dinner and pre-club drinks.  Now it’s time for the main event!  We were the first to be let in to Howl at the Moon when they opened for the public.  I ran to grab a good table and snagged one right up front.  If you’ve never been to Howl…
