Dressing Up Our Pups – Howl-O-Ween FUN
Good Tuesday Morno! Let's start your day off with a Buzzzzzzzzz and I hope a smile! Daisy could have been a daisy, but wouldn’t that have been rather obvious? Instead, she chose to be a bee in a field of daisies. Lovely choice, don’t you agree? Trivia: How many legs does a bee have? ( I thought … Continue reading Dressing Up Our Pups – Howl-O-Ween FUN

Mercedes I Want My Metris!
Tootling along in our loaner Metris van, my twenty-year-old (Cole) suddenly noticed the check engine light blink. The blinking code indicated that the loaner would soon need a routine service check. Cole and I started to laugh hysterically. And then the check tire pressure light came on, and we laughed even harder than hysterically. Your … Continue reading Mercedes I Want My Metris!
The Olympics Are Odd
The Olympics have the unique power to make people care about things they would never think about at any other time. If someone walked up to you and said, “I can do three backflips on a beam three inches wide,” you might respond with, “That’s great, Susie. Can I have an order of fries with … Continue reading The Olympics Are Odd
Happiness Ceiling – Too Much Happy
Too much happy. Some days are logistical calendar nightmares. Recently, Cole (my son and business partner) and I faced off against such a day picking up and dropping off our campers. But we knew that if we made a plan, worked our plan, and kept our sense of humor, we could make a mockery of … Continue reading Happiness Ceiling – Too Much Happy
Facebook Trial by Comments
My friends on Facebook fall into several categories: family, close friends, friends of friends, and virtual friends. Virtual friends are like pen pals; we may never meet each other in real life, but we enjoy each other’s Facebook posts and company. One of my virtual Facebook friends disappeared around the first of the year. I … Continue reading Facebook Trial by Comments
