Today is Blogfriend Participation Day! Why is it Blogfriend Participation Day, you ask? Well, I’ll tell you (and thanks for asking!).
I was working on my free-form summary for SR, and I got stuck. Maybe stuck isn’t the right word, since I wasn’t mired in quicksand. Stumped might be more accurate. […]

For those of you wondering, yesterday’s Messed Up Tune was “Happy Together” by The Turtles. That one got pretty funky, didn’t it? I’m with Rex — threw the cubes was a pretty cool little phrase.
After my Big Burnout (hereafter to be known as BB), I had decided in order to avoid a repeat […]

Cheesy title, I know. But I’ve run dry on clever ways to introduce our Sunday Messed Up Tunes. Maybe I’ll brainstorm titles; tuck them into my hip pocket to use later.
Cheesy title or not, it’s Sunday, which means time for another Messed Up Tune. Ready? Here we go!

Kind of a funky shot, don’t you think? Feel free to click on the picture for a larger view. Believe it or not, it’s water.
This is Churning Caldron in the West Thumb Geyser Basin at Yellowstone National Park. Here’s some of the information from the sign:

Don’t you just love it when the dentist sneaks up and blindsides you by doing more to you than you expected?
Wow. That almost sounded dirty. Didn’t mean it that way.
I mentioned yesterday that’s what happened to me. But a lot of sleep (helped along by a little Vicadin) has me […]

We finished cleaning this morning. The appraiser has been here. And I’m back from the dentist.
I pulled my back while cleaning, and my thigh muscles are sore. The dentist ended up doing more work than I expected today, and I’m numb and in pain at the same time. Is that even […]

I’m actually having to post this before I go to bed because I don’t think I’ll have much time tomorrow. Why? Because tomorrow has been dubbed CLEANING DAY. Doesn’t that sound like fun?
Yeah. Didn’t to me either.

I’ve been tagged! Heather tagged me for this one, and I’ve been working on it all night. I think I’m finally satisfied with my answers…

Today’s first order of business — yesterday’s Messed Up Tune. Y’all are getting too good. It was, in fact, “When Will I Be Loved”, originally performed by The Everly Brothers, covered by Linda Ronstadt (who most of you mentioned) and country music’s Vince Gill. Great job everybody!

I think we’ve finally found our house. We just got home from submitting our offer, so now it’s in the seller’s hands. Y’all please keep your fingers crossed for us!
In the meantime, it’s time for another Sunday Messed Up Tune. Just in case you’re new to it, I’ll post the rules again.
The […]

You may notice I’ve changed the title for the photo posts from Daily Shot to Saturday Shot. There’s a good reason for this. I’m not delusional. I know I won’t be able to post photos daily — I just don’t have the time — but I can post once a week. […]

My trip to the periodontist yesterday worked out much better than I could ever have hoped. I didn’t have to lay in the stupid chair and have some guy sticking his hands in my mouth, so that alone was a plus. We sat in a room with x-rays of my poor teeth up […]

So, the day hasn’t started out on the best foot possible — SoundGuy forgot his cell phone today, MiniMe is home sick from school (and the sounds coming from her bathroom last night were almost enough to make me sick), and I have a periodontist appointment in less than two hours. As they say, […]

Good thing it was a low, low price. I don’t have a whole lot of sanity left to speak of. Perils of being a wife and mother.
WARNING: Please make sure your tray tables are secure in the upright position, strap yourself in, and prepare for a hodgepodge post. It […]

Looks like Annalee busted me, and on more than one thing (although she doesn’t know it).
I worked on my WordPress theme last night. I’m so close! It was looking okay on my test blog, so I wanted to try it out on the real blog with all my links and plugins […]
