We’ve been having some issues over the past week, once again with the sleep disruption and just feeling more than a little drained and tetchy, it’s been a bad combination of things. The lack of computer with it’s prospects of “ruining us financially”, Max working through some rather sticky issues, and that certain time of [...]

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the dieting aspect of my life and the reasons why it’s so hard for me. I know some of it is due to the sedentary lifestyle I lead which is partially choice and partially the fibro. I need to take the choice part out of the equation and [...]

I was realizing the other night while hubbie and I were talking that we’ve been together 7 years. Well, 7 years 5 days now. Our first date was to see “Final Destination 2″ on the day that Columbia blew up, 1 February 2003. Hubbie proposed to me the following Thanksgiving, but we didn’t get married [...]

Yesterday was pretty busy though I didn’t think it would be at the outset. My intention was to go to Walmart and come back, help Mum with some school work and generally veg given I still have the dregs of this cold that’s hanging on. Except fate didn’t let things go that way. First my [...]

I haven’t been writing about this issue because I wanted to get it resolved with my family and my employer before I spoke of it online. It was common courtesy.
I’ve been having issues with my health at work, again. I spoke about the fact that I pulled out my shoulders and was having flare-ups. [...]

I shouldn’t have been surprised that I was up to see the New Year in. I’ve been up until almost midnight every day for the past few days. Hubbie had to go to bed early because he had to be up to go to work at 5 a.m. but Kore and I stayed up to [...]

I felt a bit weird all yesterday wishing people alternately “Happy Holidays” and “Merry Christmas” but then I don’t want to get into the long explanation with random customers that we’ve already had a holiday celebration, my holiday celebrations, this past weekend, and it’s only my husband’s coming up tomorrow. We’re going to spend the [...]

I’ve been a little absent again, but this time it’s for a good reason. I’ve not been staying in hotels new orleans but I’ve been spending a lot of time with family.
My husband’s side of the family are down from Staten Island, so a lot of time that’s not been spent over there has been [...]

It’s getting to the point where in our household we need to start planning for Yule, in the sense of assembling wish lists. It’s doubly hard because of the financial strain everyone is still under this year. I’m figuring to try and make as many things for people for Yule, or alternately suggesting that as [...]

On Sunday Mum took the munchkin and I to Lady of the Lakes Renaissance Faire. It’s the first time since 2005 that I’ve been to the Ren Faire and it was a lot of fun, and the munchkin really enjoyed himself.

The maypole guarded the entrance and when we walked in we were invited to participate [...]
