:) This is Pat right? I know it is. She still calls me on the anniversary of Mother's death.
It is so wonderful to know that she touched people and that they admired her for what she was best at...being a mother and a wonderful friend. I don't know if having her has made me the mom I am or if NOT having her has made me the mom I am. I think it's a little of both. As much as we miss her we were so lucky to have her while we did. I miss her terribly. I love you sis...more than you can imagine!!
A memory about my mother
In this case, this isnt' my memory, but memories shared by one of my mother's best friends. This is from an email sent a couple of weeks after Mother died. I've saved a printed version of this email but I want to make sure I document it in several places so that I never lose it. Tara, I wanted ...
He's hilarious!! We call it the Joe Biden song now too.
the Joe Biden song
It's no secret that my son has a penchant for the music I like and often sings along with me to whatever is on the car stereo. What you may not know (because I've been a pathetic blogger of late) is that he's also a big fan of Barack Obama, and of Joe Biden by extension. So a few days ago it was...
Yummm. I haven't had those in at least 20 years. Black Cherry is also my fave.
J-e-l-l-o
My mother used to make these all the time when I was growing up. Jello Popsicles 1 pkg Jello (3 oz) 1 pkg Kool-Aid 1 c sugar 2 c boiling water 2 c cold water Dissolve Jello, Kool-Aid and sugar in boiling water. Stir in cold water. Pour into molds. Place filled molds in freezer and wait ...
Where's my props for introducing you to flair? They need a flair button that thanks me for that.
I have Flair
I don't really pay much attention to Facebook, but this past week, I started playing with the Pieces of Flair application. You know, flair, the buttons Jennifer Aniston's "Office Space" character had to wear as part of her waitressing uniform. I don't recall the details, but I do believe she e...
Reading this made me tired. Way to go sis!!
Running notes
Okay, a few running notes first... Sunday I was way tired, but I went out for an early morning run. Some fog still clung to the grounds of Emma Willard where I run - it was that early and cool. (Aside, breakfast was being prepared somewhere n campus because the smell of bacon was almost overpowe...
My kid is pretty darn cute! I am surprised you used this picture. Oh well! Cute anyway. Thanks for the shout out! Love you sis!
the cutest dilemma
I can't decide what is more startling...that my nephew Grady is 7 months old already or that he just gets cuter every day. Just when I think he can't get any cuter, boom.
What an asshole!
Chauvinism rears its ugly head
The following letter ran in the Glens Falls Post Star, the paper for a town a bit north of where I live. Kirsten Gillibrand was elected to the US House of Representatives in 2006 in the district that borders mine and while I couldn't vote for her, I followed her campaign closely and was very hap...
Good Grammy recap. I agreed with pretty much everything. It was a boring show this year IMO. JT is not cute to me either but talented I guess. Whew, and John Mayer is painful to watch. He can play the hell out of the guitar, but I could do without watching or hearing him. Good for the Chicks. They deserve it. I saw Big and Rich in the crowd after one of the Chick's wins. They looked peeved...LOL! What about Christina's James Brown song. WOW! The girl may be dirrrrty, but she can sing her assless chaps off!! For a second I thought they might wheel out James Brown's body...Have they buried the poor guy yet?? Loved Smokey, but he did seem a little lost. Lionel was good too...I thought of the bust from the video also (it was sooo scary). I can see the reason they paired them up for a back to back performance. However, how did Chris Brown fit in that lineup?? I don't think Smokey and Lionel when I hear a Chris Brown song. He can dance though. I thought the girl singing with JT was lame. Not that she was lame just the whole voting crap was lame. Mary J was awesome as usual. She is so grateful. I cried when she got choked up...but I cry about everything these days. Oh Yeah...the Eagles stuff was horrible. That is all I can say about that. Too bad you missed the Police, they were pretty good. Sting is still HOT!
Blogrammies
8:10. Which means I missed the damned Police performance. Hello, YouTube. Dixie Chicks take the stage I'm still so proud of them for standing their ground. Natalie looks great with brown hair. I've always thought she has beautiful eyes, but something about the hair color makes them look very Lin...
You can tell that the sole of the shoe is red. That would make it a Christian Louboutin.
Shoe Lust
What's not to love? Patent, green, mary jane, peep toe. Such a beautiful spring shoe. Can you guess who makes it? (only cheaters Google)
