Short ‘Ooops!’ Post
Sorry, for the 2nd weekend in a row, my hosting co. has tried to migrate to a new server (with no luck) and my site has been down most of that time. This weekend, I was down and I also lost the original ‘NEW Contest Starts Today – Two Free Slings from Pippalily!‘ post, which I have recreated below. (more…)

The Stuff I Shouldn’t be Telling You!
Just because…
What follows is one of my top ten most embarrassing moments!
Early 1990’s – Applebee’s Restaurant
I was on a date with a Dork. Just so you know it wasn’t the first date with ‘the Dork’ and it wasn’t the last. That last part probably doesn’t matter, but I’m telling you anyway.
(psst… don’t think I am mean calling him ‘the Dork’, he turned out to be much worse, but it a long, long story – just take my word for it, OK?)
‘The Dork’ and I were seated in a booth, across from each other. I am sure I’ve mentioned in previous posts that I have a serious (but not debilitating) diet cola addiction, so it shouldn’t come as any surprise, that I had a VERY large and icy Diet Coke in front of me. It’s also important that you know that the drink was really tall and the straw very long (remember those two details, ok?).
Just a sec… I’m going to run and grab a drink.

Today, this is Hard …
I am craving lobster! ** 10 minutes of silence ** fingers hovering over keyboard ** nothing!** Is the title starting to make sense yet? My mind is blank … well, except for the LOBSTER. I am thinking about taking up extreme-ironing –> I’ll get Mr. MK to try it out Read more…

The Nerve of Some Peoples Kids!
Am I raising ‘Little Suzy Home-Wrecker’? Like mother, like daughter! Hey! That’s not true, my kitchen is nearly always clean! I’d never pile my dishes on the counter! The mess in this play kitchen is starting to get on my nerves. I get my kitchen looking spiffy, I turn around Read more…

An Ode to Two! (psst … don’t forget the contest!)
I was cooking dinner (whoohoo) and Georgia was eating a DQ Dilly Bar.
“Muma, me want more ice freme.”
“Yes Georgia, after you eat supper you can have more ice cream.”
(note: I often say, “YES” before I mean NO to lighten the blow … this time it just didn’t work (not fair!).
I want ice freme ….

Hello … McFly?
Did I really say I was going to blog everyday for 365 days? Really? Did you believe me? *SIGH* I am all out of ideas. It could be that I still haven’t recovered from my sleepless weekend. Believe it or not, I am on my way back to the warehouse Read more…

All Partied Out …
Last night I stayed out ALL night! *GASP* don’t worry; it’s not as sordid as it sounds.
It was a planned birthday night out for one of my closest friends. Her husband booked us a luxury suite at River Cree Resort and Casino. Besides the odd cruise ship casino, I have never been to one. I am not much of gambler … I lost $60 in 10 minutes and was done.
I rarely put on makeup…
I figured I may as well get a picture.
