So hey, what’s up old school bloggers? It’s BAAAACK! Aren’t y’all excited? I am! I sort of kind of (not really, just thought it best to) took a summer break from OSB but I am back and ready to read all about your ABCs of Me post this month! This one is TOTALLY old school….
Ocean = Life
When we went to Moody Gardens (this is NOT an ad post, I already did that, I’m just telling a story…) we saw a documentary on the IMAX screen there about life at the very deepest depths of the ocean. It was done by Jacques Cousteau’s son and it was some of the…
Writers Gonna Write
I occasionally get compliments on my writing. I am not saying that to brag. I’m saying that because it kind of shocks me every time it happens. It literally feels like I just stuck my finger in a socket, not knowing what would happen. I think (and hope) I always remember to thank the person…
Home Makeover Edition
The house we live in and me, well…. we have a love/hate relationship. I love the size of the closets and all the rooms actually. I hate the lack of curb appeal. I love the kitchen, and it’s bright windows over the sink but I hate the fact that a “real”-sized fridge does not fit…
I’m Sorry I Forgot to Read Your Blog
So, here’s the thing. I cannot always remember to read your blog posts just like you cannot always remember to read mine. I’ve never used a reader. Back in the day my sidebar, where I listed all the blogs I read, used to be my reader. Now Facebook sort of serves as my “reader”, between…
I am… (Old School Blogging)
Hey y’all! Last week was a whirlwind and once again I kinda “just remembered” that Old School Blogging is still a thing that I do here. Blame it on the show (Listen To Your Mother, that is). Thankfully I have cool friends like Angela that are really good with something called “short notice” and can…
Uncommon Goods & Healthy Habits
I have this ever-present internal struggle with food. I’m pretty sure I have talked about this here before. I’m not going to delve into all the “pshyco-babble” about why, who, what or where, just know it’s there. So, in an effort to help myself eat and drink more healthily, I have been looking for any…
Old School Blogging – 12 Questions
Whew! Y’all, I almost forgot about Old School Blogging this month! Can you believe that? (yes, so can I). Thankfully it came to me amongst a ton of other random thoughts yesterday morning and my pal Emmy is a real trooper and decided short notice was fine. I have such great friends. Emmy is an…
It’s My Party and I’ll Skate If I Want To…
A few months ago I was at dinner with some girlfriends and I asked them to start brainstorming with me about what I could do for my 40th birthday. I wanted to have a fun party that would take me back to my youth and make us all feel a just a tad younger for a…
One Spring Day in March, 1975…
…I was born. My parents were here visiting last weekend and during one of our conversations my mother decided she would buy a couple of little cakes and we would celebrate my birthday a little early, while family was here. Then she said, “Where did those 40 years go?” We both laughed a little as I…
