christmas in h-town . . .

Wednesday, December 24th, 2008

A lovely 75 degrees with 100% humidity . . . that’s right . . . it’s raining.
So I broke my earlier promise and went shopping on Christmas Eve.  Crazy I know, but I went early enough that the stores were just opening.  I left the house at 6:30 AM, just a wee bit too early [...]

holiday plans . . .

Wednesday, December 24th, 2008

Live and learn, I’ll never do that again!  Shop in person, that is.
Last year, I did Christmas on the web.  I think the only things I purchased by actually walking into a store were the stocking stuffers.  But this year, I decided to scale back and I wound up ordering very little online.  Lesson learned [...]

that The Bureau of Communication is a great idea!  Their motto, “Let that which is unsaid be said.”
In other words, a fun way to send a note.

And, uh, if you should happen to received any Unsolicited Feedback in your in box, uh, it may or may not be from me.

the shoe incident . . .

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

I’m not a Bush fan . . . but I was disturbed by the shoe incident.
Mostly, I think, by the fact that someone was actually able to hurl an object so close to the President.  Bush is spry, but what the hell?  A bullet moves much faster than a hurtling shoe.  Where was the Secret [...]

spring cleaning . . .

a few months early.
That always happens to me.  I have the best intentions of starting the new year off with a clean slate.  So I’ve been cleaning the house and trying to figure out what I’m gonna do with all the kids drawings and artwork.
I need to get it sorted by child and then by [...]

to blog!  I’m having a hard time keeping up with my blogroll.  Kudos to all you bloggers!
And to toot my own horn . . . I’m pretty impressed that I’m doing pretty good so far with blogging every day in December . . . and then some.  I think the secret is to blog a [...]

LMAO
I’m not even Mom or Mummy . . . but Lesle.  LOL  Oh my gosh, little girls are too much.
I made popcorn, on the stove as requested, and made a quick run to the convenience store for something to drink.  Well, all hell [...]

I’ve always admired those gorgeous one-photo, loads-of-embellie pages . . . but I’ve never been able to pull them off.  So I decided to try with the photos of the kids and their teachers that I took at their Christmas parties.  I started with Emy’s photo, and let me tell ya, it took FOR. EH. [...]

it just ain’t right . . .

Friday, December 19th, 2008

This morning, pops asked me what the weather was supposed to be like today.  I suppose I should start watching the news, because I didn’t know the correct answer to the question.  But, being that it’s December 19th, I went ahead and pulled my boots on, a cotton slip under my dress, and a sweater.
Perspire [...]
