Black Friday is almost here! Are you ready?

Well, the time is near.  Thanksgiving is almost here and that means Black Friday shopping for many of us.  I don't usually go shopping on Black Friday but I have many times.  Let me tell you, if you haven't gone shopping on the Friday after Thanksgiving, then you are definitely missing out on some crazy shopping!  Everyone is in a great mood BUT it can get intense because everyone wants the best deal they can get.   First of all, you need comfortable shoes and clothes because you are going to … [Read more...]

Yay!! I love getting tagged. It gives me something to do on my blog that requires little thinking..

Question of the week: Black or White?

A few days after the election, I noticed the way some people are reacting to our new President-Elect Barack Obama.  People are either very happy or they are very upset. So of course my 12 year old son noticed it too because he brought up a question I just can't answer a simple yes or no.  All I had to say was I really don't know.  So my husband thought it would be a good idea to find out what my fellow bloggers thought about the question too. Question: If Barack Obama was a blue eyed, … [Read more...]

Thursday Thirteen – Daylight Savings Time

When I think of Daylight Savings Time, I think about more sleep or less sleep.  What can I say, I love my sleep.  But since that awful day of DST, I have been a mess.  Whoever said DST means you get an hour more of sleep was totally wrong because they don't have any children.  Here are the top 10 reasons why I despise DST and the top 3 reasons why I love it: My 3 year old thinks it 7AM when indeed it is 6AM on the WEEKENDS!! I am extremely sleepy and tired at 8PM. I'm up at 4AM … [Read more...]

Wordless Wednesday – Central Park

So, did you do it?

If you've got your mind in the gutter than shame on you! LOL. Just kidding. What I meant was did you vote? I did so I am glued to CNN right now and I am hoping the best man wins.  I will post about who I voted for later this week because I don't want to jinx it. You know, I was afraid we would have to wait in line because of all the horror stories I've been hearing about.  So I thought the process was going to be crazy but the voting process was such a breeze for my DH and me.  We were … [Read more...]

So Sad.

Isn't it sad that Barack Obama's grandmother died a day before the election?  I think that is terrible.  No matter if you're a Democrat or a Republican - we're all human.  I can only imagine what he is going through right now. … [Read more...]

I would comment more often but…

some bloggers only have a few choices.  Either you have to be a Google/Blogger member or have an Open ID.  The Open ID choices are LiveJournal, Wordpress, TypePad or AIM.  All of which I have neither.  The hosting that I do have is GoDaddy and the application I am using is WordPress but it is not the same because I have my own dot com. So if you leave me a comment and I can't leave a URL comment (Name and Website), then I will reply to your comment through my blog. Sorry for the … [Read more...]
