I’m a bit obsessed with this tree. See here. And here. And here. Something about the thousands of delicate white blossoms makes me happy. And the fact that the tree stands gloriously in our front yard ensures that I can see those blossoms every time I gaze out the living […]
We are outta here!
Well, in less than 24 hours we are. And I’m soooooo ready for a vacation. I’m eager to say goodbye to the wet, crappy snow that fell on Wednesday and that still lingers in my backyard despite a lovely day of sunshine. It may snow in April in Michigan, but […]
Have MacBook, will become less productive than ever
So, yeah, I’m completely mobile now. Wireless on a desktop Mac wasn’t all that impressive. Woo-hoo…I can access the Internet from anywhere in my house! As long as it’s my desk. But now I can check blogs, do my banking and Flickr incessantly while watching “Cars” with Devin in the […]

What the spam catcher caught
Subject: The plan is for Britney to eventually gain primary custody and Kevin will have visitation The funny part is the body of the email is trying to sell a stock.
Tipping the scales
I can NOT believe how much of a blogging slacker I’ve been lately. To be honest, I’m trying to prioritize and sometimes jotting down my random, meaningless thoughts just can’t be a priority. Sadly enough. Because I rather relish my inane chatter on this website. I’m struggling to find balance. […]
OK, people…where’s my brain?
I thought, with my previous post, that one of y’all would have returned it by now. Seriously. I need it. It’s bad enough that I took nearly a year to complete the N-600 form and mail out all of the stuff to the folks at Homeland Security. (What is that […]
