Saving Pennies

For the past several weeks I’ve been carpooling to work. Because of this, I leave the house alot earlier so my blogging has suffered.  But the good news is I only have to fill up my gas tank every other week. I’ve been keeping track of my savings and I’m happy to say it looks [...]

Catching Up

So I haven’t been updating my blog. My bad. But I’ve had nothing to say. I know it’s strange but the medication I was taking made me blank. I’m mean really blah blank. I couldn’t think at work. I couldn’t concentrate watching TV and I certainly couldn’t put two sentences together to post on the [...]

Hot Hot Hot

Eeh…nothing. Not even a blog thought in my head.  Mentally I’ve flat-lined. Yup
It’s rare I have nothing to say. Maybe it’s the heat. In fact I know it’s the heat. This time of year the oven stays on 24/7 and it zaps the energy out of me. So much so that I think I turn [...]

Soapbox Monday

I’m still recovering from my not so brief tango with Salmonella. Each day I’m feeling better. I’m eating light-mostly fruits and plain carbs like toast. I’m drinking as much water as I can and taking my medicine.  By the end of the week I should be back to normal. Alrighty then. I don’t think I [...]

Catching Up

I’ve been off radar and in and out of consciousness all week. Why? Because I became a Salmonella statistic! Oh boy. I’ve had Montezuma’s revenge, kidney stones, I’m sure diphtheria (from a cruise I took) but this thing knocked me off my feet and down on to the bed. And there I’ve stayed for most [...]

Monday this n’ that

I had a wonderful 4th with six people gathered around the kitchen table that was meant to comfortably hold four. Hamburgers, hot dogs, potato salad, baked beans…yum. The best part besides the great conversation was there were no leftovers. I had only planned for 4 but when I found out neighbor friend decided not to [...]

Happy 4th

Several of us went to dinner last night and we were kidding around discussing the next food item to be recalled. I’m planning to have hamburgers for the 4th of July. I get home and turn on the news and the headliner is recalled hamburger meat. I just giggled. WTF -I’m gonna have it anyway. [...]

Oh Hum

I woke up later than usual this morning so I’m thinking I must have needed the rest. <g> I’m just about recovered from the weekend thank goodness. You know times are getting down right tough when Starbucks announces they are closing 600 coffee shops. Yikes. And I don’t know of many people that are traveling [...]
