things no one cares about but me

  • Noughts and Crosses

    Yesterday I popped off about teaching my chicken to beat me at tic tac toe. Maybe you didn’t pay attention to that comment or maybe you snickered or maybe you thought I was making stuff up. When J-Dub mentioned playing tic tac toe against a chicken one time at a fair, I figured he was full of… Read more

  • Crazy Chicken Lady

    While others are being entertained by Monday night TV programming, I am entertained by a chicken. My husband has nicknamed me The Crazy Chicken Lady. I don’t care.  Sticks and stones and all that jazz. Although videography is not my forte, and I am using my phone, and there is a red light in the… Read more

  • Signs of Morning

    Morning Time is quickly becoming my favorite time of day. I can easily say this today, on a Sunday. More specifically the Sunday after I’ve had 8 days off of work. Maybe tomorrow morning I won’t feel the same.  Tomorrow.  The dreaded Monday.  More specifically, the first day back to work.  The first day back to work after Spring… Read more

  • The Moon

    “I see the moon,  And the moon sees me. God bless the moon, And God bless me.” I went to feed my dogs last night and I caught a glimpse of it.  Of course my camera and photography skills can not do it justice. I was looking through the oak trees and it was shrouded in clouds… Read more

  • Goulash, Grandparents, and Regret

    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

  • The Memory of a Sound

    I recently purchased this magazine. I say recently, but it was way back in 2010. I have no idea why I would purchase a magazine called Do it yourself, since I don’t do anything myself.  There must have been something that caught my eye on the cover, but now…..who knows? This is one of those… Read more

  • Five Reasons Not to Have a Blogging Buddy

    Five days ago  an idea for bloggers to pair up with a blogging buddy went out over the world wide web via wordpress, the site that hosts this blog.  This is an effort to motivate, uplift, and encourage bloggers to keep up with the commitment they have made to blog in 2011.  Much like an exercise… Read more

  • The Seinfeld Post—a post about nothing

    I’ve accepted a challenge by WordPress, the site where I blog.  They are challenging bloggers to either post once a week or once a day in the year 2011. I am going for the once a day posting challenge.  It’s a biggie.  Especially considering how long it takes me to write one of these boogers.    I missed the very… Read more

  • Thoughts on a Sunday

    November 21 Today brought me the challenge of finding a sitting, reading, writing place outside where it was sunny and calm.  But if the spot had sunshine, it also had wind, and if the spot was wind-blocked, it was also sun-blocked.  I settled for sun combined with wind and I made due.  But as I struggled holding down my pages… Read more

  • My Pond

    One summer my niece and I went on a pond tour hosted by the local lawn and garden club.  The Pond Tour consists of people who are gifted in all things aquatic and horticultural (Warning:  Big Word Day) to open their back yards, front yards, rock gardens, and water gardens up to the public to tour.  Hence the name:  Pond Tour. … Read more
