About Me

My photo
I'm a Great Northwesterner that is now loving life in the Midwest. I am a world class napper. I'm very bossy. I clearly love a good glass of Scotch. I wear aprons every chance I get.

Some prayers and good thoughts...

This is Megaman. He is the delicious new addition to my cousin's, Mrs Doctor, family. And today he was diagnosed with Metopic Craniosynostosis where the soft spot on his head has closed too quickly. His older brother, Dude has the same condition. I'm not sure what all it will mean for him and his family - but I do know that prayers and love need to be sent their way. Done and done.

Learning about myself...


Today I went over to the Colorstrology site and learned that my birthday color was Ash Rose - and that because of that I'm "...spiritual, magnanimus, exceptional..." and I'll take that! You should go find out about YOU!

Perfect for a party...

Oh man - I would love to throw a party where we had one of these...
Ooo la la...

Ya gotta getcha one...


Meet the Ice Orb. It is an ice tray and bucket and everything in one. These pictures don't do the wonder that is the Ice Orb justice. I know I want one.
I promise - I'll stop sending you away for things...but you'll be glad you went to watch this one...go

I am such a nerd.

It makes me giggle.

This awesome picture can be found here

It's a problem...

I'm sure there's a way to embed this video somewhere - but right now - just go and watch this awesome video. Rockin' and poignant.
And yeah - where my bees at?!

Rear Window...

So - right now I'm having a kind of Rear Window moment. The next door neighbors sound like they're disposing of a body. Shovels, dirt, cover of darkness. I'm hoping it's just a family pet that died because kids are even in on it! What should I do!?

Back to school, back to school...

Tomorrow I head back to school - not as a student (shocking, I know) but as part of the staff. I'm quite excited for what the year will hold. This year will be quite busy and full of adventures and fun, both at school and here at the homestead.

The summer was really fantastic. Perfect company - all of whom I'm missing a ton. I looked at the pictures and videos from the summer and cannot believe how much we did in such a short time. And really - time flew, right? All of a sudden it's September people. Here are just a few of my favorite images from the summer. I will use these to get through the rainy days.

Eating at Babe's. A polish for me?!
The Taste. Chocolate Dipped Strawberries? Yes, please.
Sweet little babies eating cupcakes.
Okay - so this was the day when the new kitchen table arrived - and so we had lunch on the chairs in the dining room. It started as a joke - but then everyone just sat and ate their lunch. It cracked me up that they all just sat there.
Super Bennett, rockin' some shades.
Super girl - off to save the world from bad fashion.
Lincoln didn't quite make it to the main course and instead chose to sleep in his chair.

Memory lane...

I spent some time today "yearbooking" myself...with some delightful results. You, too, can yearbook yourself. Go now - it's fun!
