This is It

Gentleman Broncos

I had reservations about going to see this, but when the opportunity arose, I figured what the heck. As it is from the same people as Napoleon Dynomite and I really enjoyed that, I thought, Meh it can’t be too bad.  I was wrong.  But I also think I was the only person in the [...]

Holiday Cards

October 28, 2009

I have never been a Holiday Card sender, not for Christmas or New Year’s and actually, I am hard pressed to buy birthday cards for people.  When I give a card, much effort goes in to picking it out and making it personal, I am not a fan of the rote sappy poems and such. [...]

I am a Mom.  I am a Blogger.  I am not a Mommy Blogger.  I have said it before and I will continue to say it over and over.  I have nothing against Mommy Bloggers, some of my best friends are Mommy Bloggers (ba dum bum).  So needless to say I was a bit excited [...]
