Musings of an adventurous empty nest mom on everything under the sun.
Today's game didn't count in the standings which is why I called it Week 0. Also, I know the tradition is to use feet in the header up there, but I really loved that picture of the boys holding hands as a team right before the kick off. Mine is #55 over there on the... Continue Reading →
Martin Luther King Jr's dream is one huge step closer to reality. I love my country. These are the policies I will pursue. And in the weeks ahead, I look forward to debating them with John McCain. But what I will not do is suggest that the senator takes his positions for political purposes. Because... Continue Reading →

It just hit me what an amazing 4 week period we are in! Well, amazing at least, if you are an Olympic and political junkie like 🙂 Two weeks of Olympics leading into two weeks of conventions. I know I am going to check out the convention coverage this weekend and set my DVR for... Continue Reading →
These musings stem from a conversation that started in Austin with my sweet roommate MissMusicNerd. She opined that these days everyone has some form of ADD. That the world has become so fast paced it is the only way we can keep up. So I started paying attention (hah, get it?) to how my days... Continue Reading →
Hi, my name is tpgoddess0103 and I am an Olympics addict. The 2008 Beijing Olympics have been too much for me. It all started on Opening Night. I tried to stay away. Didn't set my DVR. Knew we would head out to dinner with a good chance I would miss large chunks of it (including... Continue Reading →
Had to go off the schedule with this video. Home made by a Daily Kos member and I think it is so brilliant. Much like Al Gore had to walk a fine line as far as campaigning with Clinton or creating distance (long term analysis is that creating distance hurt him), McCain has a similar... Continue Reading →
