Spam That Doesn’t Come in a Can

It seems like the spam texts and calls come and go in waves. In the last 5 days, I have been slammed with all kinds of spam on my phone. Scammers are working overtime lately.

Hot and NOT Ready!

The day was supposed to go a bit differently than it did. I had planned on getting up early so we could run to Sam's Club to get a few things. Sam came in before my alarm went off and crawled into bed next to me. She laid Ella down for a nap and she … Continue reading Hot and NOT Ready! →

Ouchies

Sam always makes Ella's "Well Visit" appointments for her day off. Yesterday, was her 1 year check up.

Sam, who is now entering the second trimester of this pregnancy, was … Continue reading Ouchies →

Snow-pening Day

Baseball is back! Today was opening day at Comerica Park. Sadly, because I work midnights, I didn't get to watch the game. The Detroit Tigers hosted the Cleveland Indians and started the season with a win. It's always exciting when they win on Opening Day. It takes me back to the magical 1984 season, when … Continue reading Snow-pening Day →

What’s My Line … man?

I would have been about 11 when the show The Great Space Coaster was on TV. I don't remember much about it, but there were three things that come immediately to mind. First there was Gary Gnu, the news "gnu". I can still here him saying "No Gnews is good Gnews with Gary Gnu." I … Continue reading What’s My Line … man? →

Nice Lids!

I rarely post two blogs in one day, however, my last post made me think about something - hats. The reason for this is the first line of the song "On the Sunny Side of the Street" (Grab your coat and get your hat ....) I guess I have always appreciated a good hat. I … Continue reading Nice Lids! →

Sunny Side of the Street

"The Sunny Side of the Street" One of my favorite commercials on TV right now is the "Spring Into Action" commercial from Kohl's. There is something about the smile of the little girl as people "hop" by that tugs at the heart strings. It is a wonderful "feel good" commercial. If you haven't seen it … Continue reading Sunny Side of the Street →

Question For Fellow Bloggers

As a blogger, I am always excited to get a notification of a "New Follower." Recently, however, I have noticed that some of my older posts are being "liked" by people, but when I look in my stats, that post was never even visited - or read. How can this be? In some cases, some … Continue reading Question For Fellow Bloggers →
