My cats are so annoying sometimes, Mr. guy especially! He is a control freak and will have litle temper tantrums if life does not follow the routine HE is used to. N did not come home last night, that is a routine disruption. N usually gets up at about 6 or 7 am everyday and […]
An out of state assignment.. Sigh.
N has been sent on an out of state work assignment to Colorado City to cover the news on the polygamists out there. After the police raid in Texas every news station around here seems to be covering polygamy right now… So I’ll be watching for his news story tonight and tomorrow to see what […]
What can you do about an emotionally draining person?
Do you notice feeling drained, trampled or just worn out after an encounter with an acquaintance or loved one? Maybe this person only wants to have interactions with you when they need support or maybe they tend to unload on you all the time. How do you distinguish between someone going through a “rough patch” […]
Persistence often pays off..
This is a lesson that is very apparent in my file right now. I try to teach my students that perseverance and persistence will lead you to great things. Often times we fell the urge to give up right before we are about to experience success. Those who succeed are often those who kept trying […]
Let the madness begin!
Well, I am excited and a bit frazzled all at the same time! It’s interesting how that works huh? Today I have after school practice with my winterguard students, during the practice we are heading over to the local charter school to do a dress rehearsal for their talent show (that we are performing in […]
Blog themes are like new outfits!
Yeah, I went there! But seriously that is how I feel.. Changing the look and feel of my blog is fun and keeps things exciting for me.. Sure it can be a headache getting everything just right but once it is done waves of satisfaction and excitement fill me and I am HAPPY! So, I […]
Brace yourselves, a new look is on the way.
Since I am pulling my hair out with techie stuff right now anyway I figured I should just take care of my blog at the same time. I get bored easily so I want to have all my sidebar crap in widgets that I can arrange easily and that wont be lost when I change […]
Unable to insert an image after your WordPress 2.5 upgrade?
I upgraded 3 blogs to wordpress 2.5 today. One of the blogs is having image insertion issues. I found a post called 2.5 Image/Media Uploader problems over at the wordpress support site that talks about the potential fixes for the issue. Things like browser cache, type of browser, old versions of adobe flash player, the […]
Been a busy gal!
Today I have updated 3 WordPress blogs with the newest (as of today) version of WordPress: 2.5. The administration panel is crazy differnt from previous versions so that is taking me some getting used to. All in all it seems like they added lots of cool features. Interestingly enough out of the 3 blogs I […]

Got a case of the modays? Need a laugh?
So, I was watching Dirt on FX tonight and the funniest commercial came on about learning to drink coffee again… It is a quit smoking commercial or something but I just loved the actor (Robert Clendenin) and the randomness of the commercial. It’s Monday, which is a bummer to most so here is a […]
How charting your temperature can give insight about your hormones.
Fertility awareness combines charting of your waking temperatures, and other signs of fertility to track, monitor and understand what is happening with your body reproductively speaking. People who are into doing things the natural way, those who are having trouble conceiving a child and those who are religious often learn the fertility awareness method. It […]
The space men stole our hotel!
I had the strangest dream last night that I thought you might get a kick out of. I dreamed that I was at this vacation resort that had hot springs and a number of other nice amenities. I was out enjoying the springs with other people when we spotted a craft flying in the sky. […]
Did we conceive? My NFP-FAM charting and ovulation.
Oh boy, looks like our chances for getting pregnant were good back on Monday & Tuesday. Using natural family planing/ the fertility awareness method I was just able to confirm past ovulation that was within a 1 day window from the time of intercourse. Now I just need to wait 2 weeks before I can […]
Remembering a great leader: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
I got this in my email from moveon.org and loved the quotes! Just wanted to share them with you all in memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. What powerful words even 40 years later! “A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift […]
Transform your home promotion – Hey mom!!
I just read about the Transform Your Home promotion today and immediately thought of my mother and Jerry because my mom is ALWAYS talking about her kitchen floor! Jerry is a real estate agent/ expert remodeler here in Arizona who is my mothers partner/ mate. They bought an older home out in New River, that […]
I am a sucky pet owner :-(
Now that N’s work schedule has changed I am dropping him off at work in the morning and we usually take our dog on the car rides with us. Well today we got home from dropping N off at work, my hands we full of crap and I was trying to get Dixie out of […]
We already got a few bites on the job search!
Today several employers responded to N after he sent out several applications yesterday. This is a great sign for the job search but it also brings up a new technical challenge for me! One of the employers asked if he had some online footage they could take a look at, sort of a resume tape. […]
The job search begins!
The resume tape is just a bout done, there are about 4 months left on his contract and the job search is under way! Job searching can be a tedious and stressful time for anyone. You sift through the possibilities, talk yourself out of the ones you feel are unachievable and then you pursue the […]
Chilling and watching TV today, what is with these shows?
So am lazy today and planned to chill out on the couch with my laptop watching TV and doing stuff on the internet. So I have the oxygen channel on right now (becasue that was the channel the TV was already on), they are airing the show “The Bad Girls Club”, what the hell kind […]
