Confession, I am a Hoarder

November 11, 2012

I spent all day yesterday on a ladder and with a bucket cleaning our front porch. Not until I was done did I feel genuinely bad my neighbors had to look at our mildewed white porch all fall. I do this a couple of times a year but it has been a really rainy year [...]

Even The Universe Finds Us Ridiculous

November 9, 2012

My husband and I have been together since we were kids in rural Michigan.  Our families still share vegetables, (mostly because they want to rub it in each others faces who’s came in first and who has the biggest) and my husband never had a washer and dryer growing up.  Sundays were laundromat days with [...]

We Could all Use a Laugh Today

November 7, 2012

I rolled the dice yesterday knowing I live in a community of overachievers. I figured if I waited until the last minute to vote, all my responsible neighbors would be done already. I parked and walked right in.  Not one person ahead of me at 5:08. I outsmarted the smarties! I voted while talking to [...]

Halloween Costume Voting is the the Best Kind of Voting

October 31, 2012

You know I have to pull some favorite pictures to share.  Please look at the last picture if you have ever thought me a liar. Honestly, the kids faces in these pics crack me up!  What a fun time to pretend. I think we should family theme dress tonight and I can be “Lady at [...]

It’s Just That Kind of Town on Halloween and Every Day

October 26, 2012

“Please Use Honor System.  Put in Yellow Mailbox.” That’s right, honor system.  Just leave what you owe. It’s that kind of town. We live in a little town where when you stop by a pumpkin patch you see lovely pumpkins and gourds.  It’s nice to see people having faith in humanity. Suckers!!!  Good Lord I [...]

These three pictures tell a story. I will let you tell it. What do you think was going on? Still tweaking my blog. Please leave a comment or suggestion on things that need improvement or you wish I was doing or perhaps I should stop doing. I know my topics are a little all over. [...]

Redneck Riviera and Honey Boo Boo

October 14, 2012

You know those airfare deals when you can fly away for $9 and to get home its $20?  They charge you taxes and fees, and for luggage, and even extra for water, and they make you de-ice the plane in Detroit and you can’t fly Wednesday through Tuesday night? Ok, they don’t make you do [...]

Silly Saturday

October 13, 2012

I’m ordering Thai and locking my bedroom door tonight. Think they are trying to bring the rest of the body back that WAS attached to the hand. Dear boys, please don’t turn on the stove. Dear Insurance Agent, The fire would be self contained anyway as we followed all code requirements when having cabinets built [...]

Manslaughter, My Blog, and Poor Earlie

September 13, 2012

Honestly, I should have expected this. I can’t expect to get pictures accidentally sexted to me every week of PTO mom’s breasts to write about. I can’t expect to have rotten eggs spontaneous combust all over me and have to have dead baby chickens hosed off whilst stripped naked in the front yard, every week. [...]

Birth of a Blog

September 2, 2012

By talking to myself I am ensuring my external hard drive keeps the memories that my mind sometimes cannot remember. When I looked back at my photographs I knew I needed to tell the story. My blog was born.
