Let’s talk shoe stores. If you are a woman, you love them – when you are ALONE. If you are a woman taking kids or a man shopping…it is equivalent to HELL! I have decided that shoe shopping with children is the single most miserable thing in the world! They should hand out freaking valium …
Our newest pal is the guy who is working on our house, Jim Richards of “Tile by Jim.” I would love him to be my “Eldin” (remember Murphy Brown’s housepainter), if we had that kind of money. Jim was painting our bedroom this morning and zipped out at his 12:30 PM deadline. A native of …

I won something and it means more to me than most awards we circulate in the world of blogging. It was given to me by an e-friend who owns the blog Conversations in Time. She has an amazing story, life and is truly a good soul. She is a 41 year old heterosexual woman who …
My name is Greta. “Hi Greta.” I turn 40 on March 16th and it has been 1 week since I last touched King Cake or beer. Hehehe – feeling silly at 2 AM. I missed the memo that most hysterectomy post-op patients also get INSOMNIA!!! Note to self, call for Ambien tomorrow. Too bad my …
This blog should be sponsored by Kleenex today (I’m here Kleenex-show me the money). I promise it won’t be a sad post, heck, I’m the Princess of Positive. But, I am one week one day post-hysterectomy now. My hormones are all over the graph! UGH!!!!! So here I am lying my butt on the couch …
Yesterday I had the pleasure of being on the Eric Asher show. Eric is a huge supporter of Soldiers’ Angels and has me on frequently to promote supporting the troops. He is an awesome guy and if you don’t listen to his show from 12-3 – YOU SHOULD!!! Anyhoo, Eric also reads Kiss My Gumbo …
We could solve all our homeless problems! Man Moves into IKEA Furniture Store While His Apartment is Fumigated, Mark Malkoff has Moved Into an IKEA Showroom BTW- I haven’t given up hope that we will someday get: Trader Joe’s, IKEA, Kohl’s and a Crate and Barrel!
Who are these morons who have been tailgating all day on my Monday night news (oh wait – I know that guy – lol)? Since when did a football game give people permission to dress like purple pimps? Just an armchair observation from someone who is slowly becoming part of cult-LSU! Somehow the “costumes” brought …
Last year we moved to Louisiana just 2 weeks before Mardi Gras (and the kids had vacation too- geesh). All the festivities were celebrated in between unpacking boxes and learning our way around our new home. This year I am planning a little better! Do I need to remind you that Mardi Gras is right …
There are three side effects of acid: enhanced long-term memory, decreased short-term memory, and I forget the third. ~Timothy Leary~ Pedro: Hey how am I driving, man? Man Stoner: [looks around] : I think we’re parked. ~Up in Smoke – Cheech & Chong 1978~ I’m here NOLA, St. Tammany, Louisiana, world – “The Princess of …
Since my surgery this past Wednesday, yours truly has been walking around, or shall I say, lying around in a haze of Benadryl and Percocet. Percocet for the pain and the Benadryl because, of course, no trip to the hospital with my latex allergy would be complete without a little allergic reaction. Guess that was …
Well, I’m home after my overnight stay at hotel St. Tammany Hospital. The doc removed all my wonderful lady parts that were bugging the heck out of me (he left me one ovary for a keepsake -lol). No, I didn’t get the plastic surgery at the same time (bummer) nor did I get a picture …
THANKS to each and every one of my readers and new friends who has welcomed me into my new state and made me feel at home. We have found our forever spot and couldn’t be happier (mom & dad – time to move here). Writing positive things to my audience each and every day has …
This little story was too good not to share. So here goes: I had just finished shopping at Rouse’s with my 3 little monsters. They are all lucky I didn’t strap them to the roof on the way home (a whole 2 miles), because they were just miserable (who invented this school vacation stuff?). We …
