One of my RahRah girlfriends from Seattle, Demery, posted this on Facebook yesterday. . . and I LOVE IT! It hits so close to my heart. I have preached a Good Attitude to my children since they were very little. They know that nothing NOTHING sets me off more than a BAD [...]

My new Weirdo Neighbors continue to provide an ample supply of entertainment. Their horse dog, Maverick, broke out of the patio this weekend while another neighbor was walking by with her little French Bulldog and pounced at them. I’m pretty sure that Maverick only wanted to play, as he seems like a [...]

That’s what I am. My friends from the pool, who are always thoroughly entertained by my stories, want to know why I get all the strange neighbors. Just lucky, I guess.
To be honest, I’ve been very lucky most of my life to have always had “good neighbors”. You know – neighbors [...]

September is disappearing in a blink, just like the entire year 2009. It’s like I woke up on September 1, the day after I got home from my Seattle vacation, and hit the ground running and haven’t stopped. Surprise weddings will do that to you.

Since returning from Seattle on vacation, I’ve been at full speed getting ready for the “surprise” wedding/reception. I haven’t even swept my floors since getting home (and I’m a floor FINATIC). It’s been manic. I’VE been manic.
The day I got back from vacation, I found out that I had to lay off [...]

My baby is getting married tomorrow!! And he couldn’t be more excited! Or more thrilled! Or more anxious! He’s just beaming. He can not wait! Not a nervous bone in his body.
Me – knock me over with a feather. Still. Kinda numb. Head spinning a bit. [...]

It sounds like a title to a sad chick flick, but it’s just a sad day for Donna. Yesterday, the official last day that the pool is opened, it rained. I’m not talking a little drizzle. I’m talking RAIN! I woke up at 7:45am to what sounded like a hurricane outside. [...]

Only one more post about my vacation and then I’ll spare you the torment. But this is a very important post. One that I will forever remember as “Knock me over with a feather. . . My youngest is engaged!”
Yep folks! My youngest born child called me as I was in a [...]
