Now THIS is a dress you can get behind ... literally ... it could save your life.  (more here ...)

I know no-one noticed but I had to make a mad dash today to my mother in laws.  (more here...)

See here's the thing ..   (more here...)

So you know how your mom always said that whatever you put in your mind, stayed in your mind and so you should be careful what you put in there?  Ok, I am never sure whether it was her, or the Easter Bunny ... or maybe the Minister ... or it could even be like that guy with tinfoil on his head that hung out at the Subway ... but…

Yup it is true, these definitely DO NOT go with snow boots.  (more here ...)

Did you know that if you put enough ruffles on a dress, you can hide a myriad of problems?  (more here ...)

At the end of school we had a party.  None of us were actually "there," we were all at "our friends house" for a routine sleepover.  Except I was at my girlfriends while she was at my house supposedly... but we were actually all at the party.

How do you compete with golf?  I mean it is like a mistress from hell.  (more here...)

You have to admire some of the poeple on the subway.  Maybe not the ones who are throwing up on the back seat ... but some of them. Ok and like you don't HAVE to but you could ... if you would ... and you should ...  (more here…

I was out staring at the moon the other night.... no biggy ... just out standing in my yard in my yellow cow onesy jammies staring.  (more here…

My brother got a new paint set one year.  He was quite the artist. Seriously.  While I was drawing animals - that all basically looked the same - relying on my colouring and the fact I could print "cat" and "puppy" underneath them to direct people to understand my interpretations ... he was actually drawing realistic looking…

I love flowers.  Even as a kid I used to pick them every chance I got.  (more here ...)

There were two neighbours out shouting at one another on the road today, so being a good neighbour ... I did the right thing.  (more here…
