First, a HELLO to everyone who ended up here as a result of googling any combination of "sex" and "The Rock." I know it happens, as evidenced by a post I did called "Mommy Porn," which remains one of my most viewed posts. I get the whole sex + The Rock thing, I do, and…
Pour Some Sugar
On the way to work today, Def Leppard's "Pour Some Sugar on Me" played on the radio. That song always jets me back to high school at warp speed. I sang along in the van. "Love is like a bomb, baby, c'mon get it on. Living like a lover with a red owwf on." Wait.…
I’m Back from NaNoMehMo . . .
Winning starts with beginning. Â -- Robert H. Schuller Well, it's December! Currently I'm sitting next to a halfway decorated Christmas tree and a half-asleep husband, during halftime of the Giants-Redskins game. And guess what? I won at NaNoWriMo. Not only did I win, I over-won by 10,000 words. So why am I only halfway excited?…
Pickles, Pretzels and Piffle
Hi Everyone! Still NaNo-ing. Ugh! In the meantime, here’s a post from my Mom about her adventures with my nephew. She’s a new blogger so show her some love ! 🙂
I had the distinct pleasure of spending the night with my 3 year old grandson this week.  I have not done this before and did not know what to expect.  We decided to “camp out”.  That’s where you pull out the sofa bed in the living room and sleep there instead of in your bed in your room.  It seems he and Daddy do this on occassion and it’s fun.
E. loves to play Cut the Rope on my ipad, so that’s what we decided we would do.  He is amazingly good at this game for a kid his age and is very excited when the frog finally gets the candy.  If he has trouble with a particular level he hands it to me and says,”Here Grandma.  Tell me when you get it” and he goes off to do something else while I struggle with the game.  When I failed…

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.…

Gram’s Patriotism
Happy 4th of July! I wanted to share a quick post tonight about my paternal grandmother, Dorothy. Her life was a story, but tonight I want to share something I learned about her in her death. When "Gram" died a couple of years ago at the age of 88, she had planned her entire funeral…
What Inspires You?
Inspiration is defined as "the process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative." I've read and re-read that definition about ten times while staring at the blinking cursor here and it wasn't until the tenth time that I realized how incredible it is to be inspired. Â That something,…
Companionable
The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge is to show "Companionable." Â You can see the post (and cute pictures of dogs)Â here. That's JC and M. playing with the hose in our backyard. We had two kids so that they would have each other. Though they share the same blood, they are as different as day and…
