I ate way too much yesterday. Everything turned out great and I pigged out way more than I should have. Wound up going to bed after chewing a bunch of tums. In fact, fell asleep for most of “The Apprentice.” Woke up just in time to see who got fired, but have no idea why […]

The pumpkin pies are in the oven and I’m about ready to put the turkey in the brine solution to soak overnight. All the other goodies are waiting to be cooked tomorrow. Just have to figure out how I’m going to fit everything in the oven since my new stove only has one oven rather […]

That’s right, you did read it correctly! Patrick and some of his friends are snowed in up in the mountains at Big Bear! They went up on Friday to a cabin owned by the parents of one of the girls for a fun weekend, planning to return home Sunday afternoon. What they didn’t count on–and […]

Thanksgiving is next week!?! I am not ready for this. I expected to have everything on my list almost finished by now. Somehow that hasn’t happened. Part of the problem has to do with a new client I’ve acquired. I’m trying to enter all their old data from 2003 from handwritten entries in a check […]

Have been watching “$40 a Day” in Las Vegas on Food Network. They just went to a place called The Hookah Lounge. Every table has a hookah and they serve some really great drinks…and the drinks were cheap! They also went to the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino where you can get a special that’s […]

It’s cold! All I want to do is curl up under the covers with a good book. Unfortunately I need to get busy tonight setting up accounting records for a new client. Yuk! Should have started this about a week ago, but am just not eager to sit and do data entry. Oh well, the […]

I’ve been hit five times now by some asshole spammers that continue to post comments to every one of my blogs–some of which are extremely disgusting! Because I’m getting tired of deleting all this garbage (3 times today!), I started going through my website ‘options’ and discovered you can turn on some kind of anti-spam […]

Am getting over the election depression and getting on with things. Lots going on at work and at home and just can’t let myself get caught up in all the turmoil as to why Kerry lost and who’s to blame. What’s done is done and I can’t do a damn thing to change it, so […]

Interesting that the 2004 election took place on All Souls Day, better known in many parts of the country (and the world) as the Day of the Dead. For those of us hoping for change, those immediate hopes indeed died as John Kerry conceded the presidential race. But as we’ve heard all our lives, “Hope […]

Since 1936 the last home game the Washington Redskins have played before the election has correctly predicted the presidential winner. If the Redskins win, then the incumbent party stays in office. If they lose…well, you get the idea. Today the Redskins played the Green Bay Packers and the score was Packers 28, Redskins 14. Oh […]

Patrick’s party last night was lots of fun! All thought my kitty litter cake was totally gross–exactly the reaction I had hoped for! And Patrick’s custard pudding snacks at the appropriate point in the movie “Dead Alive” were received with universal groans! Costumes were creative and lots of fun. All were homemade concoctions which I […]
