Have you ever watched the show “Deadliest Catch” ? It comes on the Discovery channel and is a documentary style series about crab fisherman. Now, before you start thinking that it’s going to be like watching bass fishing or something boring, you should really give it a chance. I would have never in a million years turned on the show if it hadn’t been for my brother, who is fascinated by it. Last year when I lived with my brother for about six months, we used to sit up together and watch it. Part of its charm may have been…

Tomorrow is the community yard sale here at our town homes. I am just going to pull everything out tonight that I can think of and stick tags on all of it. I am determined to get rid of everything, even if I have to sell a $100 item for ten cents. I just want it gone. The time has really come to purge our house and my life of all of these things that I got when I married J and things that he purchased or gave to me. It will feel so good to let it all go….

Sometimes I think I get too hung up on age. Yes, I know that 31 is still young, but sometimes it really feels like it’s getting to be too late for some things. Women can have babies into their 40’s, but when you already have trouble in that department, it makes you wonder when your cut-off date is going to be. Of course, I don’t want to have a baby before I’m ready just because I’m scared of it being too late. The other issue with age that I’ve had lately is just career based anxiety. Everywhere you look, someone…

This post may prove that I am the biggest dork in the world, but here goes nothing. When I am working out at Jazzercise, the routines sometimes get to be a bit too hard or I feel like I am starting to lose energy or the ability to carry on… so I have come up with a little way to keep myself going. I pretend that I am trying out for the Dallas Cowboy’s Cheerleading Squad. Did you ever watch that show on ESPN or whatever where they showed the entire audition process for the DCC’s? (Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader’s) Well,…

Doesn’t it always seem like Wednesdays are the hardest days? I know a lot of people hate Mondays because the weekend is over and all, but to me, at least I am facing Monday after having a fun and hopefully restful weekend. But Wednesdays are like an island. They are sitting out there surrounded by two workdays on either side, with no weekend in sight. It’s always the hardest day for me. Hard to get out of bed. Hard to get dressed and out of the house. I wish that I could just skip Wednesdays and go straight to Thursday….

Happy April Fools! This is not exactly a “holiday” tradition that I have gotten into too much in the past, but it’s fun to see what ideas creative tricksters have come up with. Google seems to have gotten in on the festivities with custom time, where you can send emails into the past and also a new wake up system, complete with bucket to dump water on you if alarms aren’t working. Check out a list of some online april fool’s day jokes at Cnet . My favorite joke so far is what Youtube has done. Just go there and…
