Welcome From here, you can peek through the dusty window that shines a little bit of sundown onto my untidy mind... illuminating the masses of undisturbed cobwebs.

 Now that I have a few minutes, I’m finally gonna post the images from the Ohio Winter storm that just blew through here a couple days ago. I.HATE.SNOW. Let me just set the record straight. But, no matter how much I dislike it, I can’t help but stand in awe of it’s beauty when it’s left undisturbed in the natural landscape here near the Hocking Hills. I’m just gonna post the images, maybe throw in … Continue Reading

 Well, it’s over with… all but the clean up. Ohio winters might be pretty to visit, but you don’t wanna live here. If you live in it, it means that you have to drive in it when the roads are horrible and suffer through multiple heart failures (usually because of the other drivers who drive like idiots). My BILL (Brother-in-law) is one of those idiots. No matter how bad the weather is, he always has … Continue Reading

 My husband fell in love with a white-bellied Caique at the pet store a couple weeks ago. We went back to visit him once, and went home and did some serious research about Caiques. Turns out they are some of the most affectionate and playful members of the parrot family. The love to learn tricks and to play… more like a dog than a bird.
Charlie is his name, and he’s adorable. He is very comical, … Continue Reading

Ok, I know you all must think I have an obsession. And I may just, but it’s definitely justified that I prefer to have CLEAN dishes. So, without any further waiting, I’ve loaded the dishwasher with dishes, some of which are kinda awkward, but they all came out … Continue Reading

While I try to get situated here. I moved my site from one webhosting company to another, and everything was fine and intact for about 48 hours, but when I got up this morning… it was back to the original generic blog that you get when you first start using Wordpress. Nice, huh? Yeah, I’m absolutely thrilled. So, please bear (or bare if you prefer, lol) with me while I try to get things back … Continue Reading

Okay, I am by no means a house cleaning genius or dishwasher expert, but… with that being said, there is a minimal amount of common sense that should be used when loading the dishwasher. Long story short, I usually load it, and for the reason you’ll see below. I try to beat everyone to it and thought that, after a while of seeing how it SHOULD be loaded, maybe it would catch on. Let me … Continue Reading

Okay, it’s officially started. I’ve got to tell the world about the world’s worst my brother-in-law.
Snapshot:
30 y/o male. Has lived at home with mom since birth. Bald, but always wears a baseball cap. Showers (very) infrequently. Locks himself in his room with the … Continue Reading

I think I may return to blogging.
Everything is okay here, I just didn’t think I had much to say about anything….
So, I’ve officially turn the big four-zero. Never thought I’d see that day come, quite honestly. Thanksgiving has come and gone, my youngest daughter turns 18 in a mere 19 days, Christmas is bearing down on me like a Mack Truck.
I’m here. Not sure what I’m gonna say yet, but I’ll think of something… … Continue Reading

The Spammers Made Me Do It!!
First, let me apologize to those who are viewing this who are NOT spammers & scammers. To those of you who are fairly regular loyal readers and commenters you’ll notice that I’ve had to install CAPTCHA boxes on my comments. I’m sorry. I hate doing CAPTCHA, but I hate having to weed through a bunch of flippin’ garbage in my email and in my comments logs even more than typing a few … Continue Reading
