Living out loud in the Carolinas

  • American Idol is coming on tonight.  Just like every other week I will record the episode on the dvr so I can skip commercials and rewind if necessary.  And then I will sit there and judge these people.  I know, I know, thou shalt not judge and glass houses and all.  But I can’t help…

  • Black Notice, Patricia Cornwell True Believer, Nicholas Sparks A Walk to Remember, Nicholas Sparks All About Him, Denise Jackson The Lucky One, Nicholas Sparks Remember Me?, Sophie Kinsella Change of Heart, Jodi Picoult Last Precinct, Patricia Cornwell Vanishing Acts, Jodi Picoult Memory Keeper’s Daughter, Kim Edwards My Sister’s Keeper, Jodi Picoult I’m trying to read…

  • Tonight I finally finished addressing and writing in all 94 (!!!) Christmas cards. This was no small feat. It meant spending a good deal of time with my little tv tray in the living room while mindless tv droned on in the background. While filling out my cards I caught an episode of The Bad…

  • I’ve got my first Winter cold so I think I’m going to take the lazy way out on this post and use some bullets. Love the new WordPress Dashboard design! The preview to Nothing Like the Holidays bugs me because one of the characters says “They’re conversating.”  Conversate is not a word!  Neither is conversating!…

  • Thank you for all of your supportive comments and emails.  I heart y’all.  It is hard not to get into a funk when my father comes around.  I try to rise above the funk, but it doesn’t always work.  So, to try and keep positive I shall share with you a few things I’m loving…

  • Have I mentioned that I’m famous?  Well, not directly.  Although I was in a Salarita’s commercial once.  That’s the best tasting taco road show I’ve ever had! Morgan’s uncle is a cinematographer.  And he’s made it to the big time people.  He’s the director of photography on The Hills on Mtv and he just wrapped…

  • Or does American Idol’s Jason Castro look an awful lot like House’s Dr. Cuddy- Lisa Edelstein? Nose, eyes, lips!

  • *I’ve been really enjoying Sara Bareilles lately. Love her voice and her lyrics. *I’ve got a to do list a mile long as I prepare to take a road trip up to Baltimore to visit Lisa next week! I’m really excited to see her, Laura, Petah, the whole gang. *I’m doing a lot of jewelry…

  • I made the mistake of listening to a country music station while driving yesterday.  This resulted in full on sobbing while operating a motor vehicle.  But I was inspired by the Country Music Awards last week.  I only saw a few minutes of it, but those were a nice few minutes filled with Josh Turner…

  • Have I mentioned my new favorite tv show this season?  The delightful Pushing Daisies.  At first the narrator got on my nerves, but the writing is smart and I adore the cast.  Plus a good bit of it takes place in a pie shop called the Pie Hole, and me being a pie lover, well,…
