If I Were a Virginia Voter I’d Be Ashamed

I’d be totally ashamed of myself if I lived in Virginia and had voted this asshat into public  office. Bob Marshall of Manassas opposed state funding for Planned Parenthood because, “The number of children who are born subsequent to a first abortion with handicaps has increased dramatically. Why? Because when you abort the first born [...]

Please Just Answer the Question

I blogged about the recent loss of my SUV. We’ve since been looking for a second vehicle. I was on the Kelley Blue Book site looking up what they say is blue book value, invoice, MSRP, etc. on the vehicles we’re considering (BTW, I found some of the dealers in the Harrisburg area are really [...]

Day Before Thanksgving

-It’s the day before Thanksgiving. I have some errands to run this morning – Zach’s allergy shots, get the fillets and fresh bread from the commissary, and a few other things I’ve wanted to do. It’s raining so I’m not looking forward to any of it.
-We went looking at cars and trucks last night to [...]

The End of a Chapter

Today John Allen Muhammad will be put to death as the mastermind behind the DC Sniper case. I still remember those three weeks in the fall of 2002. I had just started a new job a month prior. Even though we lived about an hour and a half outside DC, everyone was on the lookout [...]

Let’s Try Parenting

Am I overly crazy because I expect other people’s kids to adhere to some form of decorum? You know, I thought living on an Army post that the kids would have some basic manners and self control. I was sorely mistaken. Some of the same kids who my husband just reprimanded a few weeks ago [...]

Perception

I just want to take a moment to say that situations are all about perception. Refreshing one’s blog over and over and over and over again all day long switching from one IP to another may not be considered stalking by traditional definition. However, when you have a person who has had unwanted physical contact [...]

To My Readers……….

I just want to let you all know that if you have commented on my Eden Fantasys review and have gotten an e-mail as a result from Drew at Eden Fantasys, I’m sorry. I had no idea he was doing this until today when one of my friends and loyal blog readers brought it to [...]

What’s Wrong with this Picture?

OK, so I forgot to take a picture, but there are signs at ALL our local grocery stores saying Eggo is out of some of its brands nationally. How does Eggo run out of waffles? Can anyone tell me this? Better yet, explain this to my 2yo son who wants the “yelllllooooowwww waaaafffffflllleeesss!” And this [...]

Friday Random

Today I’m going to let y’all in on my exciting life as of late, and feel free to tell me how you’ve been in the comments. I want to hear about you and yours too.
- We’re still fighting the good fight against allergies and asthma here.
- We’re barely into football season, and I’m still burnt [...]

Small Talk Six – Don’t Say as I Say

I have to admit I busted a gut when I saw what this week’s topic is. I don’t have the cleanest mouth East of the Mississippi. “6 things you say, but wouldn’t want your children to repeat.” I’m adding a disclaimer right here and now. I have never claimed to be politically correct.
1. “You can’t [...]
