What I see:
A turquoise necklace, two bottles of pink nail polish(each a different shade and manufacturer), a bottle of Bufferin aspirin, a green calculator, a cylindrical, meshed-metal pen holder holding no less than fifteen “special“ pens/pencils, three rulers, a pair of wire cutters, a metal ball with chimes inside, Pablo Neruda’s “The Captain Verses”, Hampton [...]

Oh, it has been far too long…
I just walked into the boys’ bathroom and caught all three of them, Larry, Mo, and Curly, slapping each other in the face. It was literally a Three Stooges Moment. I scared the hell out of them just by walking across the threshold; the teeny, tiny room went deadly [...]

And it feels like Tidbit Tuesday… It’s been a long week.
Have you ever gone back and read through your blog or stuff you’ve written and it seems totally foreign to you? I’ve been reading through my blog (and forgot my own password, for God’s sake!) and laughing, smiling, tearing-up, and grimacing. The grimacing is more [...]

Oh… The Drama! Kitty-Saga blew into a full-on nosy-neighbor-clash. It turns out that this lil’ kitty was SUPPOSEDLY being taken care of by the crazy-lady’s neighbor and he wanted the cat given back. This guy is a real *winner* of a dude, no job, always scammin’, and when he talks to you (when the “you” [...]

I am such a sucker.
Last night, we were watching TV, hanging out, when we heard some kind of ruckus going on next door. Our neighbor had company and they’d been drinkin’, a wee bit, and there was some kind of commotion going on in the foyer. Evidently, there was a kitty sitting outside their door [...]

I switched over the swamp coolers today. That’s plural because I did my mom’s and then did ours. Hers was a cinch but ours is proving a bit more problematic. First of all, I fell off the damned ladder. Not exactly fall-fall, more like slipped, slid, fell, scrambled, scraped, lunged, jumped… scraping myself along the [...]

I woke up and immediately asked for coffee. Then I was told that I was a blanket-hog all night. Yes, there is a chill in the air… it was only 53 degrees when I woke up this morning. This caused the boys to sleep longer than usual. Each of them was wrapped tight in their [...]

I’ve often wondered what would happen if the skin peeled on my tattoo. Would the peel be black? I now have the answer: no, it doesn’t peel black unless it’s a microscopic black and I can’t see it without the help of a microscope. I’m so tempted to get out the microscope and look but [...]

The swamp coolers are up and running. How cool is that? Quite, actually. Yes, I said coolersssssss ’cause I set-up my mom’s cooler, too. I have just one thing to say about that: “Handymen can take the things apart and put them back together (sorta; they were both missing quite a few screws) but they [...]

I love animals of all kinds. If I could, I’d have cats, dogs, horses, pigs (Yes, even pigs because I find them to be clean and highly intelligent.), and birds. (I would not have chickens however; they are dirty and dumb and probably the only animal I could kill with my own hands. Not really, [...]
