My friend Mrs. Lisa, the Hippie Spelunker, who just recently treated herself to a new domain Hippie Spelunker.com after being a blogspot blogger for quite some time generously tagged me for this meme started at JohnCow.com. It’s taken me a few days but I’ve found some people to tag who haven’t already had the pleasure, [...]

Something from “Ergo Writing” blog which was written on March 23rd 2007: When I first heard about fanfiction I thought it was a travesty and that I would never do something like that, but then I realized growing up most of what I wrote was fanfiction and bad Mary-Sue fanfiction at that. I was eleven [...]

I’ve come across something which may be useful for those relatives of ours who are looking to travel. We have a new grandchild in the family; my cousin in England had a baby girl a few days ago, and she and her fiance are getting married next year, so trips over there are rising up [...]

I had a lot of really creative suggestions for what it was that my husband had got me for my birthday. Lisa from My Thoughts Ideas and Ramblings was close with the suggestion of a ‘headset for my phone’ but Patrick of Patrick Says hit the nail on the head by identifying it as a [...]

As I’ve mentioned a few times on here before, but primarily on my livejournal; I have fibromyalgia, the illness primarily affects my knees but sometimes also my wrists and ankles. I look around quite a bit and have friends and family members also who will put me on to various new ideas for things which [...]

My husband has a problem remembering important days, so he tends to do things for them when he knows they’re coming up. So that he doesn’t miss the day. This means I tend to get things early quite a bit. A few days before Valentine’s day one year he brought me a purse filled with [...]

We’ve found a new doctor for ourselves, hopefully. They turn out to be affiliated with my old doctor; the one I went to before I was married, but only a few minutes away from us. Today is the munchkin’s 15 month check-up, even though he doesn’t technically turn 15 months until tomorrow, but I wanted [...]

With the move and everything I’ve missed my participation in Question of the Week. So here are my answers to the last few I’ve missed. Question of the Week took a bit of a vacation itself for a little while, so this week’s question is: What is your favorite quick dinner at home? My absolute [...]

My Ergo Writing post from 19 March 2007 explaining how I started on this ‘writing’ thingummy: I started writing in high school when I still lived in England. I would tell teachers I’d lost my exercise books and pay them 25 pence to replace them, miraculously find the other exercise book, and then keep the [...]
