I think my paradigm just fell off its axial..
My son uttered his first real curse word today. It was a proud parenting moment, let me tell you right now. Ya take them to church, ya model correct behavior, ya train them up and this is the thanks you get?
But seriously. He did. It was shocking to say the least, especially coming from the mouth...

Saturday Mystery Photo Contest
Yep, they're baaa-aack. The pixelated photos are my favorite, so that's what you're getting. Common objects made harder to guess via photoshop's stained glass effect. :) What is today's object, do you know?

The Headless Family of 5

WFMW - 5 Ingredient Recipes
Today's WFMW is all about the 5-ingredient meal. I didn't even have to go through my recipes, because honestly? I've turned into a lazy cook and I have all but stopped making gourmet meals for my family and have instead turned to comforting foods that satisfy. Foods that are calorie laden and make...

Digitally Altered Photography
Have you ever taken a photo that was just captured the essence of who your child is, only to discover that some of the elements in the photo were less than desirable?
Take this photo of my youngest child, for instance. I snapped this one day because I had just pulled her hair up into the first set...

I Hear Ya...
Ringing. Buzzing. Roaring. Whooshing. Chirping. Beating. Humming. While you may enjoy these sounds in nature, they're no fun when they're coming from inside your own head. I've heard these sounds all of my life and up until about 10 years ago, I thought everyone heard them.
I failed my first...

What if Dr. Seuss wrote Technical Manuals?
If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,
And the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,
And the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort,
Then the socket packet pocket has an error to report.
If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash,
And the double-clicking...

Working from a Calendar to Keep my Sanity Intact
The bright side of insomnia is that while you're awake, you can plan your next three weeks blog posts. The dull side of insomnia is that once you go to sleep, you're likely to forget everything you were thinking about just before you drifted off to sleep.
So this week I have some actual goals,...

Nail in the Fence
This post was originally published January 7,2006. Since it's Sunday, we're having leftovers - grab yourself a plate and enjoy.

Diet is a Four Letter Word
It's no secret that I weigh far more than I should right now and it's also no secret I'm not really happy in my current skin. I don't just tip the scales, they actually scream for me to get off. Even more than that, I worry about what the weight could be doing to decrease my life span. My mom has...

Pressing Toward the Mark
I was talking to an online friend today and we were throwing ideas back and forth at each other, something we do with much regularity. It's just so good to have a sounding board as a blogger, someone who helps remind you why it is you're doing this thing it is you do when the comments are down and...

The Name Game
I have had the same personal email name for close to 13 years. Oh, the extention changes with services like hotmail, yahoo, and finally gmail, but the "root name"?It's always been the same.
But after yesterday, I'm seriously thinking of changing it.
