These will be updated to include a category with time, but to generalize, most involve music, photos, or general personal blogging. Basically I learned about categories when I was 700 posts in, and didn’t care to go back more than a couple hundred entries categorizing.
Hi again. Not sure about where you are but here in Niagara, it’s been hot! I know that because my makeup is sliding off my face and our young son is a grump without a popsicle in hand. This week may have been the first time we’ve gone to the beach together and done more than dip our feet in the water. The kid really enjoyed ‘swimming’ (AKA lying on his tummy and splashing like mad) and I got to cool off too. Win! AND … Continue reading
So, life is busy. For now, the DIYs are cut back because there is rarely a moment where I get time to open my laptop, let alone process pictures or post anything other than a Facebook status. (That stuff is usually done on my phone anyway.) However! When I do get some time, I will have a few goodies. Rit Dye is sending me some dye and fixative, which was a cool surprise via Twitter. So it’s almost time to dye (again)! So that’s one … Continue reading
Oh hey, I became a mom. Our son was born weighing 8lbs, 3oz and measuring 21″ long. He is the most precious little monkey I have ever seen. We love him more than we ever knew was possible. I’ll add a picture of the little guy to this post when I am on the computer again. And I’ll update my header image one day when I’m not mobile-blogging, by the way. For now, please be patient while I mom around for a while, and read … Continue reading

It turned out of course as many know by now that the body found up north from my last post was that of Shana Carter, missing since December 2010 from her Grimsby residence. Everything about this story is a little too close to home, geographically, for me. It’s scary for us smaller-town people to realize this stuff happens outside of the bigger cities. It’s equally scary to think that we drove past and looked into that little nook of the woods a hundred times over … Continue reading
I just found an important notepad file on my computer. It reads, in its entirety, as follows: Things People Like: – Plinko – themselves – music Well, that was worth the KBs, I would like to think. Share the post ““Things People Like”” FacebookXShare… Continue reading
Yes. Thanks to my sister and my niece for the props for this shot. And actually my niece for creating the ‘fire’. Long exposures are fun. I want to a bunch more now that I’ve remembered that. Share the post “Fireman” FacebookXShare… Continue reading
Hoping all day long that our beautiful Oliver is doing well after his first aid yesterday. Poor freaking cat. I’ve lost track of how many times he’s hurt himself over the years. He seems to be eating and acting normally, so despite the nastiness of his latest injury, I have a good amount of hope for him. We’ll visit tomorrow and have an update.

… but the ugliest little bug I ever did see(…r). Or so I thought. I spent a good 5-10 minutes trying to get the sharpest shot in the low light just before dusk of this critter I nearly sat on in the back yard. I had my mouth clenched tight in case it tried to jump. At one point, it seemed it did, but… It turns out it must have fallen and landed perfectly on its ‘feet’ again, because what I was picturizing (as we … Continue reading
