Ok so I still can’t talk about the big deal, mainly because if it goes sour then I’ll have to be all sad telling everyone about how it went sour. So humour me and let me kept it vague for now.In the meantime I have some things to show you. I’m sure you know by…

There is something crazy going on here that I’ll tell y’all about in a few days once I get more info. It is totally freaking my freak though and has to do with me and Jon being parents. Til then I’ll leave you with:-LOST is coming on tonight and I’ve never been so excited to…

Ok, so I usually don’t get all political or soap boxy but I just gotta say something. Since when did Thanksgiving turn into Christmas Shopping Eve? I’m so sick of seeing Christmas stuff before Halloween and Thanksgiving skipped right over and treated as the big meal just before hitting the mall. One of our local…

I love having house guests. Lisa and Pete are coming in just a couple of weeks for a long weekend and I’m already in full list making prepare mode! I love making plans for the activities of each day, preparing the room, etc. I’d like to think I provide my guests with a nice place…

We’re about to leave to go to visit with my dad at my sister’s for his last day in town. So I leave you with a post from Feb. 2004. Lisa has mentioned this story in a couple of comments lately so I thought I’d rerun it so I could humiliate myself for the enjoyment…

My dad is coming in to town tonight for a few days. He’s staying with us tonight. We haven’t been under the same roof overnight in over 17 years. Yep, Florida’s version of Disco Stew with his head divots, neck furters, googly eyes, head twitches and all will be here in less than 2 hours.…
