My husband is a great guy, but sometimes he drives me nuts. Especially when he gets fed up with his job and won’t listen to me when I tell him to look for something else. We’ve been down this road enough times that I know what to expect. A job starts getting on his nerves, and [...]

I mentioned a couple of days ago that I was already starting on my Christmas shopping, thanks to some free stuff I’ve scored. The only problem is that I’m running out of people to give it to! My mom’s gift is already taken care of. The only other adults on my list are Hubby and his [...]

Do you ever miss your high school or college days? I do. More college than high school for me, though. Maybe it’s because I was such a nobody in high school and had a lot more fun in college. But then I guess it wasn’t so much college itself that caused that as a shift [...]

And I’ve already started my Christmas shopping! I think this is a new world record for me! I’m one of those who tends to do a lot of my shopping on Christmas Eve, so I should probably mark this down on the calendar. Okay, so you can’t exactly call it shopping, because it was free. You [...]

I swear there’s a black hole somewhere in my bathroom. Things in there just keep disappearing at random intervals. And it’s driving me nuts! Several months ago, I had a bottle of Neutrogena foundation. It was a new formula that a survey company had sent me to try out and give them my opinion on, and [...]

Ever since I had Pumpkin, I’ve considered those credit/debit card scanners at the pumps at gas stations among my proverbial best friends. When you’ve got a baby in the car, it’s so much easier to just step out, swipe your card and pump your gas than it is to pump the gas, get the little [...]

Hubby’s cousin has been staying with us for a few weeks now. He was living with his parents about an hour and a half from here, but came up to try and make some money. The original plan was to help Hubby with his side jobs, but as it turned out, they haven’t been as [...]

I am finally, finally, finally caught up on my work. I feel like a giant weight has been lifted off of my chest. If I smoked, I’d probably be handing out cigars right about now. I’m that thrilled. Hubby has already laid down the law: He says if I don’t take a long weekend this week, [...]

It appears that I still haven’t recovered from the whole writer’s block thing I had last month. Self-doubt is creeping in, and it’s really driving me nuts. Not to mention that I’m behind on my work yet again. I’ve seriously considered going back to a regular job, and that’s not improving my mental state at all. [...]

Over the weekend, I installed Windows 7 on my computer. I received my copy two weeks ago through House Party, but I hadn’t gotten up the nerve to install it until this past Saturday evening. I wanted to do a clean install, because I was running 32-bit Vista but wanted to use the 64-bit version [...]
