It’s been giving us a bit of a headache lately. For a while we were worried that we wouldn’t be approved for house insurance because Floridian weather has been troublesome for that lately, but the benefit of having a block home rather than a mobile means that with a minor sort out with the roof [...]

We’re almost done with the packing…we’re getting to the point where we’re going to have to recycle boxes to get everything, but we’re going to do it. My car is loaded up with things to take to the new place after we sign the papers tomorrow. I’m taking a break to make sure that everything [...]

I was trying to clear some space off the hard drive in the hopes that the few things we have in “outstanding download” will download before I have to disconnect the computer, and found a whole folder of pictures that I hadn’t edited and resized that were sitting on the hard drive in huge sizes [...]

I’ve had the recent privilege of being sent a Stun Master to review by AAA Safety First. They specialize in distributing a wide range of self defense products and DVDs to help you stay safe.
As the wife of a police officer I’m well aware of how important personal safety is. As soon as the munchkin [...]

The munchkin came out with his first two proper sentences this morning.
He’d been tormenting my husband who was in the bathroom by trying to peek at him under the crack of the door. Hubbie came out and told him, “You’re a strange child. You know that?” and the munchkin pointed at him and replied, “I [...]

I was able to go over to the new place yesterday and drop off some of the more fragile items, and measure for carpet in the top floor. While I think we’ll be able to get away without stair lifts for the time being. I was pleased to see that the previous owners had installed [...]

I stumbled across Fiona Apple again given I’d set the music on my hard drive to just cycle on random, and remembered I’d never seen the entire video that she did for “Sleep to Dream” and had wanted to. YouTube proved to be a help in this quest:

I love the effects of her tie-dying in [...]

By that I mean, before I get disconnected. I’m trying not to be so post-floody, but I also pride myself on getting my work done. I hope that things I’m writing are at least marginally entertaining, given I have writer’s block again on this article I’m writing for Tarot World Mag I thought I’d attempt [...]

My father-in-law is notoriously hard for us to buy gifts for. He’s not the sort to use Cleveland golf clubs. He does bowl but he has all the equipment needs. The main thing is for us to try and find movies or DVDs of TV shows that he likes to give to him, but this [...]

It’s funny how there’s always something when you’re moving to a new place. When we moved here it was that we couldn’t transfer our phone number, and then they had to rewire the entire place so that we could have DSL. Then the mix-up with the water company because of a Catch-22 situation, where the [...]
