Musings of an adventurous empty nest mom on everything under the sun.
Who remembers The New Mickey Mouse Club? The 1977 version? If you do, here is a trip down memory lane - look at these faces: I was obsessed with them!! My absolute favorite was Lisa Whelchel. See that hairstyle she had? I did my best to copy it. Remember, I was 12. The perfect age... Continue Reading →
For my friends who are Sex and the City Fans but who may also not have seen this yet. Made me squeal in anticipation! **NEVERMIND!** The YouTube video has been taken down thanks to a copyright infringement complaint by New Line Cinemas. I guess I was lucky to see it while it was still alive... Continue Reading →
Well, not one to back down from a challenge, I went out on a limb with this as a response: Having not see One Single Movie from the entire list, this truly is a Shot In The Dark! 1. No Country for Old Men 2. Juno 3. George Clooney 4. Cate Blanchett 5. Javier Bardem... Continue Reading →
Off week since I have been battling the cold and had two evening meetings. Only 100 mins of aerobic exercise for an avg of 20mins instead of 30. 2 arm sessions instead of 3. It's ok though. I am noticing a difference. For instance, I can now go up the three flights of stairs at... Continue Reading →
A morning of talking while I caught up with my parents and did their taxes. My dad is doing great and has been cleared to start his rehab to build back his strength.

Obviously from the previous post I spent a little time on the sofa watching recorded shows 🙂 I also drank a lot of hot tea as that is what made my throat feel best. Also did a little work (with a cat on my lap) and emailed out some reports. Then I went up stairs... Continue Reading →
Heh - watching the DVR of Wednesday night's American Idol and the first thing Ryan mentions is the cold/flu season hitting the contestants. I'm watching it Thursday morning at 10..why? Because the cold has hit ME! SportsBoy had a mild cold all last week and I felt the scratchy throat thing Tuesday morning and hoped... Continue Reading →
the cats are at play: What is this obsession with toilet paper rolls? Do you see what she did here (because I have not doubt this was Amber)? She opened both cabinets, dragged a towel out for some unknown reason and then discovered the mother lode of toilet paper and pulled that out. And where... Continue Reading →
Sorry for adding on yet another post but since I know that many of my readers are parents and grandparents you have GOT to read this: CRIMEWATCH! Today, Stranger Danger Hit Home! Don't worry, it has a happy ending and this is NOT a political post even though it is on DailyKos. You see, we... Continue Reading →
