We have this Russian Blue pound cat named “Blue.” I know – what an original name. He looks similar to the dumpster cats hanging around Semolina’s in Mandevillle. Damn cat through a wrench in my weekend! Blue is your stereotypical aloof cat. He is an indoor cat as are all 4 of them (not crazy …
I hadn’t had a migraine since my hysterectomy in January. Well, yesterday and the day before just about did me in. Yesterday, I spent 90% of the day in bed with the curtains drawn, The critters loved it, because they all hung out on the bed with me. Nothing worse than a completely unproductive day. …
Not here to debate Presidential candidates with you. But I have to tell you, I was blown away with Sarah Palin at the RNC the other night. Then I had my Sarah Palin moment, when I thought to myself, “Damn Greta, you are 40 yo mom with 3 kids who stayed home for 12 years …
I’ve got to admit that my eating habits are a bit strange. Maybe they started getting that way when my Nana’s Thanksgiving turkey resembled the one from Christmas Vacation (the one that exploded from being over-cooked). My Mom, well, I love her dearly, but she won’t be competing on Top Chef or even Bottom Chef …
Hey all – did you miss me? I know blogging was very light while I was on vacation, but it was a much needed break. Today will be spent tending to the law, pool and laundry – the joy of coming home from vacation! ***My 14th wedding anniversary is today!!! WOW!!! I love my hubby …
What a better world we would live in if every employee was happy, everyone loved their job, every company took pride in customer service and every person who answered a phone didn’t have to put you on hold while they talked to their supervisor. I am pretty sure that the whole supervisor thing is a …
First off, make sure you don’t miss my “Presidential” post (safe for work)! Let’s talk resumes. There are a gazillion ways to do one and things have certainly changed from 14 years ago when the only concern was shopping for good paper and making sure it didn’t look strange or have any typos! A month …

This week’s guests will be COL Bedey, Commander of the Hurricane Protection Office & Jeanne “Genie” Emory “The Bra Genie.” Keeping it eclectic!

a stone is just a stone…right? Who turned the “you are now 40 and will have a multitude of stupid annoying medical problems” button on? I want to kick their ass!!! I will continue to think positive thoughts and see everything with my warped sense of humor – you betcha! 40 was just some stupid …
GRRRRRR!!!! Yours truly has been going through all her paperwork to get ready to do taxes. 2007 is the very first year in 11 whole years that I had any income (and it wasn’t much – but something). Taxes are a PITA. I am not spouting politics or anything, but just putting something into your …
People often ask me how I manage to write a post each day. Now mind you, it is not required by NOLA.com. Our contract is that they will pay me the same amount of money whether I write 1 post a week or 7. My personal blog, well no requirements at all (I know the …
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 …
Oh barnacles – looks like Gremlins took the post that I worked a whole hour on last night!!!!GRRRRR! I’ll fix this up for you later – promise. Hate when that happens! ***Hubby is currently nursing his Wii injury! *** My neighbor Nick, taught me all about the Cajun Chandelier process. I want to make one …
No sillies, no beer for school parties (but, boy, would it have been nice to have today). Remember, our kids are brainwashed to think alcohol is a drug after Red Ribbon Week (that is a whole other post). Today, all 3 rugmonsters had their school Christmas parties (they did the dreidels earlier in the week). …
I wasn’t even going to post this morning as I posted yesterday afternoon. After getting up at 5 and doing my usual morning reading – I had to write before my head exploded and made an awful mess all over my laptop (blogging is my free therapy). Children – the world is about children, whether …
