May 12, 2009 by Elaine

Yes, Thursday nights have Grey’s and they hold the promise of Friday just around the corner. But lately, they also mean the return of my husband from his bi-weekly business trips. So today, I pay tribute to the same night of the week that I hear the garage door go up, as I sit waiting…

Did I Ever Tell Y’all About the Time…

April 27, 2009 by Elaine

… that I peed my pants in the third grade? What can I say? It’s late and I need to post something. Third grade was fine otherwise, except for THAT day. Well and the one where I got in trouble for talking too much in social studies and the teacher made me go back into…

Wedding Meme, 3B1M Style!

April 7, 2009 by Elaine

It’s been a while since I turned the pages of my wedding photo albums. Life gets busy and we tend to forget to look at the pages of images that capture one of the most important days of our lives. So I just want to thank my friend Three Boys 1 Mommy for hosting this…

March 26, 2009 by Elaine

So, I’m 34 today. Yes, my birthday is 3/26/75. My Dad always says I should’ve been born on the 25th because 3 x 25 = 75. He likes math. I don’t. Sorry Daddio! ; ) When I was a little girl I loved having a “Spring” birthday. My birthday fell on or around Easter several…

Musings on my “Mid” Thirties

March 12, 2009 by Elaine

We are coming into birthday season around here at the Miss Elaine-ous household and it all begins with mine, two weeks from today. I’m contemplating this one a little more than usual, I assume because I’m hormonal and partly because well… as this birthday approaches I realize I’m about to hit my “Mid” thirties. I…

What DO I Do All Day?

February 5, 2009 by Elaine

Sometimes at night I will stop a while and take stock of what I do all day. Yes, there is some time spent on the computer. Obviously. But I do a lot of other things too. Here are just a few examples of things that might currently fit under my “job description.” Miniature Railroad Builder/Engineer…

Do You Like Poetry?

January 6, 2009 by Elaine

There was a time in my life (high school) when I LOVED reading and writing poetry. Because I was going through some of my old writing tonight, I thought I would share one from the archives. Let me know what you think. I guess I am finally ready to share… Morning As if up from…

On Health and Weightloss and all that stuff…

November 29, 2008 by Elaine

So last weekend Tim and I had a few kid-free hours on Saturday afternoon thanks to my MIL. During that time we went into a bookstore where I picked up the book Skinny B!tch. Yes, that is the name of the book. After reading about half of it (btw, if you haven’t guessed from the…
