The Trickster

Something else happened last night that I haven’t written about yet.  It has seemed somewhat private, somewhat spiritual and I didn’t think that any words I could summon would do it justice.   It’s hard to explain.
I am part Native American and have always felt deeply connected to the Native American way of life.  Our oldest [...]

Better than I even expected!

It’s 12:55 pm and I’m just about as happy and accomplished as I have been in some time.
Made it to the campsite around 5pm yesterday afternoon.  For the first time ever, we got the most coveted far away in the middle of nowhere campsite in the place.  Now, yes, we prefer primitive camping, but when [...]

Best of both worlds

We’re leaving in less than an hour to go camping.  I love camping with my family.  My guys, a fire, some marshmallows, the stars, a tent. We’re cooking on an open fire - love cast iron.   I tell you, getting away from anything that has a plug is the best thing ever.
But see, I’m on call.  [...]

White hot sewing needles in my eyeballs

Amputation by Labrador Retriever

See that adorable, lovable, Yoda eared friend of mine up there?  He tried to kill me this morning.    Actually, he tried to remove my right arm from my body. 
As usual, I took him for his morning elimination round before my first cuppa coffee.  See what a good doggy mama I am?  Not even had my [...]

yadda yadda yadda

I’ve got a bunch of unrelated stuff to write about.  As always, I don’t think anyone will give a flying rats patootie about any of it, but you know, that’s why it’s my blog and not yours.
I woke this morning and it was yummy cold in my room.  Cozy.  I had been dreaming that I [...]

Kohliedoscope Slideshow, as promised

All Good - Girlie addition

Bare Escentuals Bare Minerals.  GAWD I love this stuff.  I love the SPF 15 foundation, love Warmth, love the “Well Rested” eyeshadow. I love the brushes.  And I love being a member of “The Club.”  Yes, it’s true that I could go more than an entire year on one shipment of their makeup (it takes [...]
