I was a scuba diver years ago. It is a hobby I miss, so I very much enjoyed hanging out at SeaLife and learning new things.
Of course the best things at SeaLife were two visitors….I’m not biased or anything.
I learned that an octopus has 8 arms, three hearts, and blue blood. I also learned [...]

A blue moon for the new year?! It feels to me like something magical and sparkly — like good things are going to happen!
So I’m not quite sure how it got to be so long between blog postings. Especially since I had a bunch of photos in my blog folder to post. [...]

Day three in no particular order. What a great exercise. Please join in!
1. buttlets (Oliver’s word for describing the lower cheeks when he didn’t know what they were called.)
2. reds — all flavors are good. Such a bright inviting color. Says happy and warm and well cared for. [...]

So after I named this post I realized I’m not actually posting any of the pictures where the family is truly enjoying their leaf fight….oops. Hopefully I’ll come back and edit it tomorrow with some new pics. I have been a little under the weather, but wanted to at least get a few [...]

So maybe suggestions too…
1. Find yourself a Wendy. Traveling is so much better with her. She was SO MISSED this year!
2. Nibs are way better than Twizzler bites.
3. Eating an entire bag of either will give you a stomach ache.
4. You can jack yourself up on enough caffeine that your hands will shake the car [...]

So I’ve been working on the bulletin board for the school library which I need to put up tomorrow. The author of the month is Marty Kelley. I love his humor and his illustrations so I decided that the bulletin board should be two (or more…I settled for two when I ran out of time…) [...]

Edited: [picture update] I think I liked the small photo better as you couldn’t tell how blurry it was, but here’s posted big upon request. My fireworks sparkle because I used a starlight filter — though I’m sure there’s someway to get the effect in photoshop, I do not know how. Sorry to be so [...]

Decorating went fine. Sadly, I cannot say so much for my friend Wendy — it sounded like she was going to strangle someone or something with a strand of lights last night — hopefully today went better and there were no sparkley injuries!
Oliver and I are headed over to my mum’s tomorrow to tackle [...]

Okay, so there’s been some crankiness in my life lately. But I guess it’s been good because it just goes to show you me, that I have some really amazing friends! Cameron cheered me earlier this week, and Wendy, Chelsea, and Jackson showed Oliver and I a great time last night. Thank you fabulous friends [...]

and who’s the adult parent?
We’ve been behind on EVERYTHING lately. Last night we finally finished our Halloween Gingerbread Spooky House. Can I just tell you that houses built without right angles suck? Crash, bam, boom (and then some swearing from the builder.) Be glad you don’t live in one. After falling down a million [...]

Quick post. Costume:
If you have not seen Star Wars, please go here. Oliver was upset at school when someone thought he was a teddy bear. He was Wicket W. Warrick from Star Wars and people who have seen the movie thought his costume was good — otherwise, they thought he was a teddy. Maybe he [...]

Rocket Dogs, that is. Okay, I’m a total dork. But, dork or not, shoes are a big issue to me. I buy *1* comfortable pair of shoes and they last me until they get holes. I’m such a traitor to my gender, aren’t I??? For a quick peek of my last pair of shoes, complete [...]
