blogging

  • I’m a daydreamer. My mind is my playground. While others live in reality, dealing with real problems and situations that arise, I stick my head in the sand and daydream.  At work, I fantasize about home. At home, I fantasize about vacation. On vacation, I fantasize about looking great in a bikini. One of my… Read more

  • Friendship

    Because I’ve {almost} told you every sordid detail of my life.  Because I haven’t trained my chicken to beat me in Tic Tac Toe.   Yet. And because I have no great picture of afterbirth to share, I am relying on dailypost.wordpress.com for a blogging idea tonight.  Topic #136  How do you decide who to be friends with?… Read more

  • Mumbo jumbo

    If you could see me as I write this, you would find me sitting in my car in a McDonald’s parking lot (I heard they have free wi-fi), partly killing time before I go to a teachers banquet, and partly trying to blog about nothing. I missed blogging Sunday, Mother’s day, the easiest day of… Read more

  • Angel vs. Life

    The Postaday challenge that I unofficially signed up for on January 1st is kicking my butt right now. I’ve managed to post a blog everyday for 109 days.  Some good, some awful.  I fear I’m boring my readers to tears with chicken antics and doggy drivel. Do I credit writers block?? No, I don’t think… Read more

  • Today was a windy day.  I went to put my hat on and it didn’t fit.  I think my head is swol up over all your compliments on yesterday’s blog. Good grief!  My intention was not for you to leave me comments about me or my blog, but you’re cool like that.   I thank you all for the sweet words.  Really, I… Read more

  • Today I just want to give a shout out and let you know how much you mean to me. Yes, you. You make me want to do this every single day of my life.  Even when I’m tired.  Even when I’m hungry.  Even when my brain is a pile of mush and the thoughts I… Read more

  • Last night I attempted cooking, which in and of itself is a feat.  I can honestly say, of the things I have been complimented, cooking is not one of them.  There are people who are renowned simply for being a good cook.  If their name comes up in conversation, people’s eyes roll back in their heads as they… Read more

  • One of my posts was freshly pressed on Tuesday, and I was happier than a puppy with two tails.   There wasn’t anything that could steal the lollipops and sunshine from my day. I was sliding down rainbows and hugging strangers.  I didn’t really understand what it meant to be freshly pressed, and what I did know was due… Read more

  • Gangsta’ Cowboy

    My husband J-Dub has a side not many people know. To the outside observer he appears  to be a polite, hardworking, rugged,  no-nonsense cowboy. But underneath his dirty, black hat lies a light-hearted wit. I had a good day today and decided to text my darling to share my good news. Here’s my text to him.  And I received a… Read more

  • As part of my daily blog reading, I hopped over and read the Pioneer Woman’s website.   A couple of days back, she wrote a few haikus about the man who makes her hiney tingle.  Immediately, she reminded me of my Uncle Leon.  Not because they both live in Oklahoma, or not because they’re both old hippies, but… Read more
