The downside to being frugal
Well, I promised that we would play catch-up. Let’s see how many of these things I can combine in to one post! First – the virus: On the reccommendation of BlogWhichShallRemainNamelessBecauseItIsn’tHerFault, I signed up for WebsiteThatShallRemainUnNamedBecauseTheyCouldSueMyAssIntoBankruptcy and started taking the surveys. After filling out registrations, surveys and forms, most of which took 5-10 minutes for [...]
Is this thing still on?
I initially had another title for this post…it was: Whoever invented and/or writes SpyWare, AdWare and Computer Viruses (Virii?) Needs To Be Strung Up By Their Testicles/Tits And Have Their Toenails Removed One By One After Receiving 5,678,007 Paper Cuts And Being Forced In To A Vat Of Lemon Juice. But that one was a [...]

A quick quiz, then back to the sofa…
I’m wiped. What I thought was just a minor sniffle on Sunday afternoon has kept my fat ass on the sofa with sinuses that feel like they are about to explode and chills and shivers like I haven’t seen since the epidural started to wear off after Prince #2 was born. It didn’t help that [...]
Five Years Ago Today….
I was laying in a hospital bed. Brad had just left with Prince #1 and I had a massive spinal headache. But I didn’t care…I had you and you were beautiful. You were (and continue to be) my CuddleBunny The things that come out of your mouth on a daily basis have me peeing my [...]
Mindi, the Patron Saint of fatsos!
(Edited to add: I just checked my stats. Isn’t it appropriate that this post turned out to be my 200th? This thing started out as yet another Weight Watchers blog and now hits an anniversary with yet another “I’m fat” post) Oh c’mon…you knew it was only a matter of time! Have you met BusyDad? [...]
Pleased to meet you, hope you die in a fiery car crash
First, can I say that I had to Google the word “fiery” to make sure it was spelled right? Doesn’t it make sense that it would be spelled “firey”? I guess that is just Merriam-Webster’s way of keeping us all on our toes! Anyway… It’s Spring and the weather is beautiful. Of course, that can [...]

Let me ‘splain. No – there is too much. Let me sum up!
Ok – name that quote! It’s been a good week since I have posted anything of substance and I am leaving tomorrow afternoon for a weekend from hell wonderful weekend in Connecticut with ALL the in-laws. So rather than trying to drag out the past week’s events in to numerous posts, let’s just go over [...]
