Twas the Night Before Christmas

It's Christmas Eve over here in Johnstown.  I have always enjoyed Christmas Eve much more than Christmas Day.  Christmas Eve is so much more relaxing and quiet than Christmas Day.  If we play our cards right, we have all our baking, de

Walking In A Widget Wonderland

Well it took all day, but I finally did it.  I don't know if it's my penchant for making things more difficult than they really are or maybe because I still wasn't feeling 100% but I was expecting something easier.  Everyone else made it se

Bad Week

Sunday, 22 October 2006 5:05 P GMT-05
This was the week from HELL.  I caught a cold last weekend and spent that weekend in bed.  By Monday the cold was getting better but extremely bad PMS had set in.  Or maybe it seemed like really bad PMS because I had made a couple of

The Spice of Life

Sometimes I look at my entries and think, "She's really manic-depressive."  One entry is all happy and upbeat and the next is angry and depressing.  The doctors never diagnosed me with bi-polar disorder, just boring run of the mil

The past couple of weekends we have really been taking advantage of our days off together.  Before we were limited to a weekend day off every couple of months because of my whacked out schedule.  Now we have every weekend to plan a one day a

Grey Day Like My Mood

I don't remember what date my beloved Oma died.  While it wasn't too much more than two years ago, I don't remember the exact date my maternal grandmother died, or my mother in law.  I loved them, they were important to me, and I can rememb

Well it's my first weekend off in months.  One of the perks of my new position.  I still have to work the holiday, but I'll be done at 1pm.  We were planning on spending a good deal of the weekend at the Folk fest downtown, and the Ethnic

I'm reading the Tribune Democrat yesterday and they had this cartoon.  I thought it was incredibly funny and true.  I thought you might like it too. http://www.caglecartoons.com/viewimage.asp?ID={23FBD808-6B65-4FA6-8868-0D35AC7B705B} You

Honey's sister usually sends some really funny e-mail jokes to me.  This time my mom sent me this one.  I immediately thought of one of the other bloggers I visit regularly.  Two really, but John S.   Grandma's Driving... GR

Real Living

Sunday, 13 August 2006 11:59 P GMT-05
I was pretty convinced that the sun had exploded when I was in Virginia.  It was so humid the only explanation I could come up with was that pieces of the exploded sun had landed in the ocean and created the sauna effect that was experienced

Grief Etiquette

Wednesday, 9 August 2006 2:19 P GMT-05
There were several times in my childhood when an elderly relative had died I questioned why, after the funerals were over, we couldn't go to the movies or play in the yard later in that week.  It was explained to me that while grieving over

Head On Collision With the Past

Monday, 7 August 2006 10:43 A GMT-05
Can we be so connected to some people in our lives that we instinctively feel when they are in trouble?  Like twins? The Wednesday before last I was feeling blue.  I had no good reason.  I had the day off, I was planning on cooking, c

We had the best BBQ the other night.  It was one of those days in the 90's and the thought of cooking inside wasn't very appealing.  So here is a simple meal for a hot day with lots of flavor and a french twist. French Potato Salad 3 to 5

I don't take much of any medicine or drug.  Never have.  Except the eight years of anti-depressants and there were plenty of missed doses.  I probably took those the longest.  I didn't even take birth control pills for that many y

Boy, you walk around with a hole in your heart a couple of days and look at all you miss.  Crisis averted, at least on my home front.  Thanks for the words of encouragement and the sympathy for my furry buddy.  I missed you all and am
