The Catered To Generation
Welcome, Children of the Eighties, you are now the catered to generation. I realized at work the other day that my generation is now the one that marketers are looking at and trying to woo. The cutting edge folks are looking at 20smothings with pl...
Too Full
That’s what my MP3 player told me last night. See, I finally tried to transfer all those nifty new downloads to it, and so I just selected them all and tried to pull them over. Un-uh. No way. I had to ick and choose, but in the end, I did m...
A funny for you
So, do you remember my posts whining about how my feet hurt? Yeah, so you might think that on my day off, when I was pretty sure I’d be on my feet for quite a bit of time anyway, I would wear nice, flat, sensible shoes, right? LIke maybe MBT ...
My feet hurt
Seriously. You people know that I am a sit on my butt kinda gal. Or at least I used to be. Not anymore. Oh no, I am a stand up woman now. I stand up all day. In fact, I stand up so much now, that I have learned [...]...
February 19th Hot Ride
I took this picture to torment my friend who is in the market and loves a fast car. Yes, I am cruel like that. addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.midlifemusings.com%2F2009%2F03%2F17%2Ffebruary-19th-hot-ride%2F'; addthis_title = 'February+19...
February 4
We had a hard freeze the night of the third. If you look closely, you can see icicles on this fountain. It was predicted to stay bitterly cold and the owner assured me that the icicles would be even larger the next day. I sure am glad I sleep with a...
Still
So, umm. Hi. I just wanted to drop a quick note to let ya’ll know I amstill here. Still taking pictures for Project 365, hoping I can get them posted before I forget the stories that go with them. Once I start that, you may want to get some com...
Seriously, wth?
I can’t find my camera. Seriously. I have at least 12 pictures to post, and that is if I only post project 365 stuff, and I. Can’t. Find. My. Camera. This is so not funny! Time to give the clutter around here a diet pill, and I̵...
A Temporary Fyx
Cover of Styx - Greatest Hits So, I have had a new cd on my desk for a couple of weeks now. I even debated giving it to dh for Christmas, but in the end I was too selfish to do that. I wanted it for myself, so I kept it. I finally [...]...
Slow as molasses tonight!
Daggone, the internet is so slow here tonight! Don’t the minions know that I have things to do???!!?? Posts to write, feeds to read, links to leave? But every page is taking forever to load. I’m supposed to be researching web hosting ...
Crikey, that’s cold
So, let’s talk about the weather for a few minutes. So far this year, it has been cold for three days: November 1st, December 6th and December 13th. Otherwise, it has been fairly warm, and occasionally hot. In fact, I had to turn the house f...
Mad, but at least it isn’t a sigh
So, I took my husband to have a cat scan today. Emotions are running so high, I almost wish I were equipped with bar faucets, so I could turn the anger OFF. Or maybe I want to turn it ON enough to do something. I just don’t know. Anyway, I&#...
The NKJV Chronological Study Bible
Image by Jonathan D. Blundell via Flickr I recently received a copy of the new NKJV Chronological Study Bible put out by Thomas Nelson publishers. I have an old Reese Chronological Bible which is…well…it’s the Bible, chopped up ...
So, lemee ask you
Lately, *cough*, I’ve been dealing with some joint pain. The cough was so you don’t ask me exactly what I mean by lately, LOL, but it’s years. My fingers hurt, and my toes, and I can adapt, I guess, even as the 12 year old inside ...
One of those days and goals
Image by digitalmama824 via Flickr Do you ever have one of those days where you run all day long, things get done, and still you find yourself sitting down at roughly 7pm with your whole to do list still to do? Yeah, it happens to you, too? Seri...
Book through Thursday, the short edition
Are you a spine breaker? Or a dog-earer? Do you expect to keep your books in pristine condition even after you have read them? Does watching other readers bend the cover all the way round make you flinch or squeal in pain? No. No. Yes. Yes. Ok, j...
Measuring History
My mother and I were discussing history a while back, and she found my theory of counting history by lifetimes intriguing. Now, just discussing history with her is rare, since she hates the subject (I know, right???), but since what I said intereste...
Self Portrait Sunday 10/26/2008
So here I am on Saturday around noon, churning through my to do list. Why in the heck do I feel compelled to keep on like this? Every day, there is more stuff to do than minutes to do it in. And I am not just whining when I say that–I seriou...
Booking through Thursday, the Meme edition
This week, we have a meme for BTT, which is a little different, but at least it’s bookish. let’s hope I can remember the answers to these questions! What was the last book you bought? A school book for one of the children. Book for myse...
Self Portrait Sunday 9/28/2008
Here I am on Friday afternoon, thinking about what I can snack on for 200 calories or less. And also, maybe a nap. addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.midlifemusings.com%2F2008%2F09%2F28%2Fself-portrait-sunday-9282008%2F'; addthis_title = 'Sel...
Self Portrait Sunday 9/21/2008
Still rocking the amazing hair from Friday on Saturday night. It’s an exciting life, isn’t it? addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.midlifemusings.com%2F2008%2F09%2F21%2Fself-portrait-sunday-9212008%2F'; addthis_title = 'Self+Portrai...
On the hairiness of hair
Now, if you are Ang., you are thinking that I am surely about to discuss the amazingness of the hair on my head. You are wrong, Ang., that is not what this post is about, though I do have some uh-MAZ-ing hair today. Here, let me show you: I’...
In a Muddle
So, I think I might have stayed up a little too late last night, working on this theme and reading feeds. I had insomnia for the first time in months, and it was around 2 when I finally crashed. Odd to think that used to be how I lived, yk? Anyway...
Wildthing, I think I love you
If, of course, wild thing were the name of this theme. Which it isn’t. The actual name is Notebook Chaos. Pop on over out of that feed reader, and let me know what you think! addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.midlifemusings.com%2F2008%2F...
Late Self Portrait Sunday 08/31/2008
Sorry this is late, ya’ll. I hit the ground running yesterday, and I stayed that way until 10pm. That’s what I get for not pre-publishing this week. Also, I hope whatever that weird spot thing is on my picture is only on my lens. Every...
There are bigger problems
Okay, I just posted a post that was basically whining about my current weight. The fact is that I have weighed what I weigh now for over a decade, and it’s my normal adult wight, and I am trying to change what appears to be set in stone. But ...
Self Portrait Sunday 8/24/2008
Here I am, on Friday morning, drenched! We had extra trash this week, so I dashed out to help the trash guy. BEFORE I realized it was raining. But daggone, my side yard looks 400% better!...
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh!
That’s what I said when I first read about this deal from Charter. If you sign up for their services, you are entered into a drawing for the Charter Laptop A Day Giveaway. They are giving away 30 HP Compaq Presario C770US Laptops. Plus, you ...
Breitling watches, and The Weekend Update, NOT with Tina Fey
Ok, sorry. But really, when I started writing the title, it cracked me up! Because I am like that. HA! Ok, on Friday, I posted that I was committing to the great mag purge of 2008. Since I did not finish the 486 page InStyle, I had to toss someth...
