So as I alluded to in yesterday’s post, today is my birthday. Considering I nearly didn’t live to see my 27th birthday, it is a blessing to make it to almost twice that age (or as my mom-in-law put it, I’m “40+13″ today!) I’ve had a pleasant day, starting off with a card from my [...]
Read More...I interrupt my mini-series on new writer tips for this special announcement: ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Snow, that is – we just had another foot of the white fluffy stuff dumped on us yesterday – and allegedly more headed this way overnight or tomorrow morning. “Le sigh.” When it gets close to spring, three and four foot [...]
Read More...Let’s face it, working from home can get lonely sometimes, especially if you have no family or many real friends in the area. Obviously, working from home definitely has its benefits, including the lower cost of doing business, since you don’t have to travel or have any of the other related “brick and mortar” employment-related [...]

I planned a small surprise party for him at home this evening after supper – he’s not the type who enjoys going out very often, especially on a weeknight, [...]

Read More...Few words, bunches of pictures today! This is a series of pictures for you from a couple days of snowstorms; dear hubby trying to keep up with the snowplowing so we didn’t get snowed in – and a few pics of two of our kitties. Of course, I took the pictures through windows, so you [...]
Read More...Happy February to everyone! Here in Maine, the new month is roaring in with another major snowstorm. It started early this afternoon, and has tapered off tonight, but apparently it’s just a “lull” with more heavy snow predicted for tomorrow – and over a foot of new snow in our area! Well, I can’t do [...]
Read More...I know, I shouldn’t live in Maine if I don’t like the cold … I grew up in New Hampshire, too, so you would think I’d be used to it by NOW (after 50+ years!) But really, it’s currently about 10 degrees BELOW zero at 9am – bright and sunny, but deadly cold, with wind [...]
Read More...If you’re in the market for good, affordable web hosting, interesting graphics and web sets, or DIY site builders – you will want to check out Stone Alley Hosting. Yes, this is my second feature post for my friend Becky – can’t help it, she is just THAT GOOD at what she does as a [...]
Read More...If you like candles – you will LOVE my friend Becky’s handmade, hand-poured bakery candles! These candles look and smell like real baked goods – so real, in fact, you may be tempted to take a bite – but you know, DON’T, ’cause they’re not edible!!
