Another scarf and thrift shop luck

I was rereading my last several posts and noticed how negative they were – blech!  Enough of that.  I’m in a happy mood now that most of the difficulties of the last few weeks are behind me, Thanksgiving is almost here, and there’s so much in the next several weeks to look forward to.  Yay!  […]

When it rains…

…it pours.  Finally getting over my sore neck issues, and now I have my son’s cold (but with a twist – I was lucky enough to get a fever and a headache, too).  Throw in a little PMS just for kicks, and well, it’s been a fun few days over here. Yesterday I was good […]

Delusions of Springtime (and a winner!)

I should have known this would happen.  It’s practically a given.  If I’m going to spend a week being under the weather and stuck in the house, then as soon as I feel well, I am going to take myself to the nearest shopping center and do a little damage to my wallet.  The more […]

Seasonal confusion

As I type, the mercury is creeping up past 62 degrees.  I’m wearing shoes without socks, a lightweight shirt, and fun daisy earrings.  Several of the windows in the house are open in an effort to flush out the staleness of winter, and I’ve decided to pick up Aidan from school today so he won’t […]
