My husband bought me a 1 hour massage for Valentine’s Day. He gave it to me tonight, well, the certificate anyway, because he’s suggesting I go to it after my therapy appointment on Thursday and have a munchkin free day. I’m not sure if I will or not. He’ll be exhausted because he’s going to [...]

Am-I-Dumb.com – Intelligence Test Every once in a while I find these quizzes and I have to take them. I started to zone out of the “State of the Union” address and this is what happens. I suppose I could amuse myself looking up random things online, like Adidas golf. Maybe I should do that…or [...]

Because of some things which have been going on not only in my personal life but with people that I know I thought this would be something useful to post. I know a lot of people who may find it useful as a reference. http://www.ncptsd.va.gov/ncmain/ncdocs/fact_shts/fs_what_is_ptsd.html This link is linked to other helpful links including PTSD [...]

Remember me talking about Akashic: Battle of Angels the comic? Well, they’re holding a contest at the moment to see if someone can add great dialogue to some of their comic panels. Have a go!

We have bears in our neighborhood! I wish I had pictures from the other day but unfortunately I only saw the aftermath of the bear visit and then heard about if from the family across the street. We’ve been having problems on trash pick up day because of garbage winding up strewn all across the [...]

You may have noticed I haven’t talked about my diet or exercise plans in a while; because for a bit there they really went to pot. Lately I’m in the mood to start going with things again. I’ve been doing minor things like taking the munchkin out for the romps in the morning or using [...]

I spent yesterday dealing with two extremes in insurance. Let me tell you that I’m very glad that our car insurance people are so much more competent and helpful than the health insurance place. I wish Blue Cross Blue Shield would take a leaf from State Farm’s book! Yesterday morning I called the EMT department [...]

My Mum sent me an email the other day about the New Year meme that I wrote an entry on the other day. So, now I can expand a bit more on the tradition I was speaking about. It is a British tradition, but it’s primarily rooted in our Scottish heritage. Mum wrote: Just catching [...]
