Once on a trip to NY, I got to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art. My baby was with his dad for 2 hours, so I tried to visit as much of the museum as I could. I was overwhelmed with all the beauty. Too . . .

Had a birthday yesterday and so age is on my mind. I was sore from something I'd done, who knows what, so I expected today to be smoother. Instead, I bent over to pick up a cup off the floor and messed . . .

My son is a genius, my daughter is a jock. That was how I thought of them. In 8th grade my daughter was unhappy about having to take algebra. She was the dumbest kid in the class. Her teacher said she . . .

I love the title of this group. My mother is now a Jones, so there is a lot of keeping up to do.

My son likes to eat out. He likes making a last minute decision on what he's eating that day. I might mind more, but since he doesn't drive, I get to eat out a lot, too.

Today another site challenged the group to post 5 things each loved, or at least liked, about one's self. I have a lot of decent qualities, but was shocked at how hard it was for me to think of 5. . . .

I wrote this week about how sad it is that when dealing with a business you have to follow up to make sure that all is well. I made reservations with a restaurant for 3 pm on Saturday, Nov 1 for . . .

The headlines of the article from WebMD stated that 1 in 7 Americans lacked health insurance in 2007. This is something personal to me since I haven't had a job that offered health insurance but also . . .

For many of you, redeeming a $10 giftcard here is no big deal. Not me, I'm too big a baby. Yesterday as I was watching my totals go up over the magic 600 total, I'd comment, then look, comment, . . .

I've loved how the gas prices kept going down. When I got to the 1/4 tank, I kept waiting to see how much I saved. In that short wait, gas prices went from regularly being about $2.19 to today's . . .

Week 4 has been so-sp. Maybe I'm just getting old, but it seemed like I had aches and pains every day. My allergies were bad for 4 days, my knee 2 days and I did something to my back. While exercise . . .
