If you are a blogger, this will probably sound very familiar to you. It drives me up the wall and it grates on my nerves like nails on a chalkboard. So you know those people - friends or mere acquaintances who somehow hear about all of the "free" things that just happen to show up at your house? I have written up what they will need to do, … [Read more...]
The Method to My Mug Madness Everyone who knows me knows that I love coffee. And not just any old coffee. I like good coffee. I drink it day and night. I take great delight in shopping for coffee like some people shop for fine wine. I usually prefer a dark roast, although, I can get with a great medium roast coffee.

I've been meaning to write this post for a long, long time, as many of you have asked about the car I won a couple of years ago. Now you finally get to hear the story!

I remember falling quite often as a child. I would get the occasional scraped up knees and bruises, but then I moved on - it was no big deal. In the past few years, I have fallen several times, and let me tell you IT HURTS! I was reminded on our trip to Santa Cruz, how much more it hurts as an adult, when I fall. Yes, I took a tumble … [Read more...]
I don't normally write posts about things like this, but I was so completely annoyed and quite shocked actually, that I just had to write about it. Yesterday morning my husband went into work for a bit, and called on his way home to see if I wanted anything from Burger King. I was starving and asked for a Whopper Jr. with cheese. He arrived … [Read more...]
