  • Why not blinking?

    In a state of absolute exhaustion I accidentally turned on Barney — and Morgan caught me. So I was doomed to 30-minutes of purple madness. Toward the end Morgan asked “Why not blinking?” (How do I explain that a costume with painted on eyes can’t blink?) Continue reading

  • So we said goodbye …

    We joined by friends and loved ones as we placed Mom’s ashes among many loved ones at the Park City Cemetery. It was short and sweet — and we all did a shot of really nasty, cheap tequila in her honor. I’m including what we put together to be read:We all come together here today… Continue reading

  • We’ll inter Mom’s Ashes 7/7

    FYI — We will bury Mom’s ashes at noon 7/7 at the Park City Cemetery. No real pomp and circumstance, but thought I’d let you know. Continue reading

  • If it’s Tuesday I must be …

    Usually the answer is at home or at least not at work which IS where I am at today. My schedule has been so goofed up for the last few months there has been no routine — except to constantly change the routine. Why the interruption this week? Matt’s brother and his family are in… Continue reading

  • The Powers of Observation …

    This is Franklin. Every episode of Franklin starts by saying “Franklin could count by twos and tie his shoes.” But until the other day I didn’t notice — until it was pointed out by a 4-year-old — that Franklin doesn’t even wear shoes. Go Tyler. Continue reading

    Morgan: “No challenge is too big for you.”Tyler: “No one ever became wise by accident.”Me: “You and your spouse will be happy in your life together.”Ahhh. Continue reading

  • I, I Think I Smell Something …

    Tyler has a nose for popcorn — I mean he’s a bloodhound when it comes to popcorn. I think he could be roused from a sound sleep with just the smell. He’ll appear at the top of the stairs, peering down, knowing he’s not supposed to come down, knowing that he’s supposed to be in… Continue reading

  • I’m feeling better by the way …

    Things are starting to turn around again — yeah! I’ve made it through the week without a major meltdown and have been weening myself off the Xanax. I even broke out into The Love Boat theme song for no apparent reason. In just a few weeks I’m off to LA for the Tri Delta convention… Continue reading

  • Mommy Blog …

    FX (I think it’s FX) is looking for ideas for pilots for shows — I think they should do one called “Mommy Blog” it would be the next generation of “Sex In The City” — maybe throw in the “documentary-ish” feel of The Office. It’s not like there isn’t enough material out there. Follow the… Continue reading

About Me

I started this site so my mom could get news about her grandkids without me having to walk her through the process of trying to open and email attachment several times a week.  Since then she has passed away and I’ve fallen off the blog wagon, but I’m inspired to pick it up again now.
