Posted in Life, tagged , , , on November 5, 2009 | 6 Comments »

I woke up Monday with one mission in mind – to get a flu shot!  I decided to start my search at CVS’s Minute Clinic, since they had been so easy to deal with when I had my pink eye.  The good news was that they did have the serum.  The bad news was that [...]

Past Week News…

Well, as usual, I have some definite opinions on the news lately…
First of all, let’s get the garbage out of the way.  That would be Levi Johnston.  This is the scum who was married to Sarah Palin’s daughter, and who is now making the circuit of all the media outlets to badmouth the Palin family.  [...]

In my post, “The Quiet Tycoon,” I wrote about my friend Iris’s success on eBay and talked about putting these boots up for bid and trying my hand at selling.
Since this was my first try, I had to poke around eBay a bit to learn how one went about being a seller, what exactly [...]

Hi y’all!  No big dramas happening right now, but lots of little stuff – thoughts, rants, you-name-it, floating around in my brain, so I thought I’d share a bit.

Not This Time…

There are so many self-help books and self-proclaimed “life coaches” who do the talk show circuits, trying to tell us all how to live, that it’s easy to simply tune all that stuff out.  I mean, how many times can you hear “Be yourself,” without wanting to scream “WHO ELSE can I be?!!!!”  But, as [...]

A Weather Schizophrenic

Posted in Life, tagged , , on October 18, 2009 | 2 Comments »

Where I live, we have just experienced five or six days of below-average temperature days in which it has been cold, wet, dark and melancholy.  In other words, day after relentless day of gloominess.  It has made me realize what a weather-sensitive person I am.  Almost every day I have woken up, stepped outside to [...]

I’ve got keep an eye on my friend, Iris!  Slowly, silently, but surely, she’s becoming rich.  How?  Well, every time she gets bored, she walks through her house until she finds something she’s not using and then lists it on eBay!  I remember she did a little of this about a year ago.  She found [...]

Well, it’s been awhile since my last Bits and Pieces and I do have a few things to share.
1) I have an admission to make.  I’ve kind of been letting my blog run on autopilot the past couple of weeks.  Picture this: Me, a person with an almost phobic fear of doctors.  Okay, so I [...]

Two Friendly Tools

Posted in Life, tagged , , on October 2, 2009 | 2 Comments »

A lot of women I know are “tool-aphobic,” thinking tools are, for some reason, a man’s domain.  Nothing could be further from the truth!  A good tool is a joy forever.  They make life easier and do things we couldn’t do unassisted.  Being a woman who tries to “do it myself” as much as possible, [...]

Lately I’ve been coming across some intriguing things on the Internet, and decided today to share some with you.  This isn’t rocket science, and it won’t strain your brain, but some of them may make you smile or go “Hmmmm?”
This is a bird nest made completely out of nails.  Not only did a bird lay [...]
