    Posted on Sunday October 11th, 2009 at 15:37 in friends, fine wine, sunday afternoon

    Nothing says Sunday like a nice bottle of Evil Chardonnay!! Walked in to my favorite wine purveyor, after work today, and saw this nice little bottle was their feature. I think I have discovered my new fave for taking to parties and cozy "get-tog...

    Today's meditation was good. It greatly reflects how Mixter, Guy & I have made changes in our lives and how change is a really good thing!! Not a group of people to stick with or be satisfied with the status quo or what society might tell us is...

    After working for nine days, in a row, I was ready for these last two days off!! My boss is going on vacation soon and so I expect that I will be working a good deal more AND not having two days off in a row!! Something that I consider a luxury. ...

    It is often interesting to me how Mixter and I are often moving in similar directions. She will mention, or blog, about something that I am either doing or thinking or have been preparing to do. Recently she mentioned that she has been in "goof of...

    I took some much needed and well deserved time off this past weekend. Four days to be exact. Today is the last day. Why do we acrue vacation time if we don't use it once in awhile for mental health time? Also, my best friend from high school was ...

    When we took our cruise, in 2004, we had two dogs and decided to kennel them for the week. Knowing what a burden it can be to ask people to make several trips to your house during the day and on weekends. Not to mention that people really do not ca...

    I have this friend at work: Nice guy -- funny, smart, Republican, Catholic... Yeah, we don't always see eye to eye! We talk politics and religion a quite a bit; probably more often than most people would recommend talking about these topics at work...

    Wow, I thought I had a great weekend last weekend -- this weekend kicks last weekend's ass! Although I didn't do some of the things that I had planned to do, the things that weren't planned were the things that I enjoyed the most! The best thing ab...

    Now, my good buddy Mixter knows that I had plans to drink for the both of us this weekend, and I want her to know that I did my best, BUT this photo is NOT from this weekend, but from a small back story that I am going to share momentarily along with...

  • What a fan-freaking-tastic weekend

    Posted on Saturday May 16th, 2009 at 21:16 in family, relationships, life, Dogs, animals, friends, happiness, insight

    You wouldn't think coming home and cleaning the house for nearly 8 hours on a Saturday would be the start of a great weekend, but it was. I got a call from my realtor on Friday telling me that they had scheduled a showing for early Saturday afternoo...

    Last week Thursday, I was so bored and lonely I wanted to shoot my face off. Okay, not really -- but I was pretty irritable and I couldn't wait to drive home Friday. When I got home, I was even more irritated. I won't say why, exactly, but my daug...

    I like my job. I REALLY like what they're paying me -- I should be caught up with most of my bills in the next couple of weeks. I like the area, the hotel, the people, etc. I even like the drive on the weekends; I love to drive, and the three hour...
