LOST Countdown

Thursday, January 31st, 2008

Yes, I just put an animated graphic on my blog. This is how insane I am about tonight.Did you watch the “pop-up” Lost last night? I missed it but will be watching it courtesy of my beloved TIVO tonight.
And guess what? I’m going to be doing some Lost reviews for The Disney Blog! Don’t worry, [...]

Why band aids are of the devil

Thursday, January 31st, 2008

My daughter is the great sleeping baby. She was sleeping 8 hours at about six weeks. At two years old she sleeps at least 12 hours every night.
Until last night.
She got a paper cut on her hand yesterday. After a kiss, a prayer, some cream and a band-aid, she felt better. She was very proud [...]

WWWWD?

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

My Mom, Grandmother, Grandfather, Maternal Grandparents & Great Uncle. 1958.
I love this picture. Isn’t it cozy? I think it’s interesting because if we were having lunch outside, what would we do? We certainly wouldn’t drag out a real table with a real tablecloth, real chairs and a high chair!

The After Post

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

I’m sticking my head out of the greed-fest (aka Bloggy Giveaways) I’ve been in the past 2 days to post. Seriously, there are like 600 contests right now. 600 things I apparently need more than sleep, tv or a clean house. Ahem. I was going to link to a few of my faves, but I’ve [...]

Who’s The Cutest of Them All?

Monday, January 28th, 2008

I have SO been looking forward to this Bloggy Giveaway. Usually when I do giveaways, I give away stuff that I love. You know, something I’ve owned for 400 years and couldn’t live without. Well, not today. Today I’m giving away something I COVET!
I first found Sarah Jane Studios on Design Mom (oh yummy!). Sarah [...]

Moo & Snow

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

Today has been a day. *whew* We woke up to a house with NO heat. That is the worst feeling I can imagine. Unless of course, I had been put to bed soaking wet. Anyway, it was too cold to stay at home, so we took Lydia and our niece to a special event at [...]

The Stuff Random Dreams Are Made Of

Friday, January 25th, 2008

I took a blogging break yesterday. I just couldn’t think of anything to post. And I was just tired. I didn’t even visit any blogs (well, maybe one or two). I just didn’t feel like blogging. *gasp*
Anyway, I’ve been tagged about 475 times in the last week and because I’m still in a blogfog, I [...]

Superficial Wordless Wednesday

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

Hazel, George, Agda & Mips. 1923.
Hazel, my great-grandmother.
George, unknown.
Agda, my great-grandmother’s sister.
Mips, my great-grandmothers life-long friend.
I told you about Agda (Ugh-duh) last week, remember? And was I right? I mean, I know my great-grandmother wasn’t a looker, either. But Ugduh Agda kinda reminds me of Moaning Mrytle! Poor girl.
Here’s one more, just for making fun.

This [...]

Right To Life

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

Today is the 35th anniversary of the legalization of abortion.
I took Lydia downtown today to join Georgia Right To Life’s Memorial for the Unborn.
From the time I woke up, I was thinking about how I’d blog this. I don’t want to start an abortion debate. I’m not a good debater. I believe what I believe. [...]

M-m-m-m-monday

Monday, January 21st, 2008

It’s Monday. You know how I feel about Mondays. I just can’t summon an ounce of blogspiration. I know some of my big bloggy heroes write lots of posts during the week so they don’t get stuck like this. But I’m just not that good.
So, today, I’m going to do a little follow-up post. [...]
