Long Weekend

Depending when you read this you may not know that Gustav has amped up overnight to a Cat Three hurricane. Yikes he’s really turning up the heat. I’ll most likely have the weather channel on all weekend to keep tabs on this baby. Evacuations are well underway now for New Orleans and the surrounding gulf [...]

It’s Friday Yeah!

At work yesterday we were all busy getting ready for Gustav and Hanna. I suppose today will be more of the same. Those little wind bags, they can really mess with an operation. Let’s all hope they don’t cause anymore damage and just go away. But I’m sure Debbie wouldn’t mind a little water in [...]

Hot Hunk Thursday Is Back

Hey HHT has made its back and might I say been absent for too long. I’ve missed those buff boys too and Thursday’s blog lineup has returned to normal. Everyone sigh–sigh. Okay enough of that. I’m so happy to have my new blog home. Looks just like the old…well almost. I’m getting there as I [...]

Wed Announcements

p Looks like we have another storm to watch this week. Hurricane Gustave is swirling around the Caribbean again and he looks serious. They say he may develop into a Cat 3 once he get’s into the gulf. Let’s cross our fingers that’s not true.
I had a fun time last night with the neighbors. We [...]

TV Rant

You’d think by now I would have forgiven CBS for cancelling Moonlight. Well I haven’t. I perused the fall lineup and just about hurled cookies at the screen when I saw that 13 of their 28 shows are crime/detective. Yes I counted them. Maybe CBS should rename themselves to CBSI? Out of all they offer [...]

A Thought On Books

Books, books, books. I don’t know if it’s me, the stories, or a combination of both, but I’ve started reading several books and get as far as page 40 or 50 only to lose interest and toss it aside. Some of my problem is my attention span– which may I say has been sorely lacking [...]

Bye-Bye Olympics

By now the Olympic Games are over in China. Tonight I’ll be watching the closing ceremonies at a friend’s house and munching on picnic food. The Olympic never disappoint. The drama in women’s gymnastics with questionable ages of the Chinese competitors, Michael Phelps being the most decorated Olympic athlete in history — of course winning [...]

Amen to the Container Store

A couple of weeks ago I went to the Container Store with a friend who’d moved to the state recently. She was setting up her new home and of course a Container Store visit was high priority.
 I was shopping with her for about the first 30 seconds after walking in then went my own way. [...]

I’m back but without a banner

Okay so what have I been up to???? Watching the Olympics for one thing. I love the games, the stories of the athletes, and of course when we win. There’s something uplifting with the Olympics and how the athletes train hard and overcome obstacles to participate. And what would it all be without all the [...]

Coming Soon!

Hey there! As you can see I have my own domain name and I’m in the process of moving in. Not everything is unpacked yet, hence missing header but I’m getting there. Thanks to good friend Michelle for helping me move. Don’t know what I’d do with out her. I’d still be scratching my head [...]
