I heard a song, an old song, you might know it, on the radio this morning, oh about 4 a.m. that has the line in it: “Dreams are for those who sleep”. It’s from an old _Earth, Wind & Fire_ song, called “Make it With You”:http://www.lyricsfreak.com/e/earth-wind-and-fire/44701.html Now, I’m not so sure it’s true, in fact…
When it rains it pours- and I’m drowning already
Financial problems…. Car problems…. Health problems…. I can’t handle much more. The finances: “Due to financial constraints, the light at the end of the tunnel has been temporarily extinguished”.

Sporadic posting, again…
Well August wasn’t such a hot month for me posting here. Was a hot month weather-wise, though not really so bad as it usually is here in the ‘armpit of America’ as a local referred to it in conversation to me once. My dad is coming for a visit. He (and his girlfriend) should be…
Poppin’ and Rockin’ Fun!
Remember “_Pop Rocks_”:http://www.poprockscandy.com/? I came across them when paying for gas the other day and bought some for my kids to experience.

He’s 7lbs. 1oz. of absolute sweetness! Of course! More later – I’m heading off to welcome him and my sister home from the…

Back to school 2004-2005
So, I’m preparing for the school year. Or am I? Well, I’m trying to, and finances are making it VERY difficult. But I really need to focus. I have a Preschooler (K-4), 1st grader, 6th grader, 8th grader and a Junior in High School this year! I need to look into a new math program,…
My quote for the day… the good, the yucky
The good stuff is worth the yucky stuff. p{font-size:xx-small}. _footnote – yucky is used, for lack of a more appropriate term, in this instance._
MoBlog here now
Well, I was tired of waiting for the xml-rpc capabilities of the next version of textpattern, so I mussed up some scripts with a wordpress moblog, that I’ve actually even managed to pull the ‘most recent’ image from, onto the main page here. One more tangle – to get the image link to go to…
