Weekend Chatter
Happy Sunday Everyone! I type this post while watching the second quarter of the Cowboys-Giants game (DVR’ing Breaking Bad– decisions, decisions). I love watching a good football game, especially when it’s not a Jets game. My poor husband, a lifelong Jets fan, suffers season after season watching the Jets. Sometimes there’s cursing and yelling involved.… Continue reading

Things That Make You Go Hmmm . . . . Trenton Style, Part II
Hi Everyone! I’ve been off of work since last Thursday and it just dawned on me that I haven’t posted yet this week. We’ve been dealing with back-to-school for all three of my boys (my husband is a teacher), who of course are in three different school districts and have three different schedules. That I… Continue reading

When I Want to Run Away, I Drive Off In My Car
Today’s Daily Prompt from The Daily Post is “Can’t Drive 55.” It reads: “Take the third line of the last song you heard, make it your post title, and write for a maximum of 15 minutes. GO!” You can see the prompt and other responses here. Well, there is my line up on the title… Continue reading

Escaping Rutsville (With a Little Help from George Costanza)
Recently I wrote that I was stuck in a rut. Blogger Buddy Rachel commented that I was in “Rutsville” and that it was okay to hang out there for awhile until I could manage to get out onto the Road to Awesome again. This week I’ve made an effort to do the things that I… Continue reading

A Quick Post on the Daily Prompt
The Daily Post’s Daily Prompt today is “Smell You Later.” You can see the post here. The prompt is: Humans have very strong scent memory. Tell us about a smell that transports you. This one came to me easily. The smell of Biolage shampoo transports me to the summer of 1990. I didn’t realize that… Continue reading

Things That Make You Go Hmmm…. Trenton Style
Trenton, New Jersey! The New Jersey state capital. I get to work there and it never ceases to amaze me. First, the people. My biggest complaint about the People of Trenton is that they don’t know to “cross on green.” It would really help traffic patterns and us out-of-town road-ragers if they’d just follow this… Continue reading

Being Better
Tonight I’m wishing I was better. I’ve been in a rut the past few weeks and I can’t exactly figure out why. But I do know this. I wish I was better. At everything. I wish I could be a better mother. I wish I was a better employee. I wish I could be a… Continue reading

My Woobie, My Love
My mother introduced me to her over ten years ago. At first, I thought she was too long. Too green. Too boxy. The sleeves hung off like big, floppy . . . sleeves. The brown wooden buttons she sported were majorly ugly. I’m not sure what possessed me, but I took her anyway and brought her to my… Continue reading
