I’m not big on college football to begin with, but last night’s BCS championship game was one of the most boring football games ever.  To make it even more unbearable, the gushing over the Alabama QB’s girlfriend (who happens to be a former Miss Alabama) tended to be a bit much.  Word on the street [...]

  I get it. It’s December 12, 2012…otherwise known all over my Facebook feed as HAPPY 12/12/12!!!!!!!!! (Insert hearts and smiley faces here.)  I know I’m going to sound like a damn Scrooge and I don’t care….but this day means NOTHING MORE than yesterday or tomorrow.  Unless you’re born today, die today or are getting [...]

Capturing the Moment

December 4, 2012

There is a lot that has been done and is being done to prepare for the arrival of the babies.  One of those things has been the conversion of my Red Room to a nursery…and since a jarring red color didn’t seem to be very soothing to anyone but me, I assumed it wouldn’t be [...]
