And the hundreds of other characters Diana Gabaldon has introduced in the first 3 books in her Outlander series. I finally finished Dragonfly in Amber, her 2nd book in the series that is quite a bit longer than the first book, and equally exciting. It picks up in a bit of a confusing spot... sort of an OMG moment for

We recently got a bread maker. We had one way back 15 years ago when we were first married. But I admit, it didn't see much action. Then when we moved the first time, it didn't make the cut and was donated to the Good Will or some such. Well, we decided to get another and I've been having a good

Hi guys! I want to thank everyone for their messages. I get lots of requests for updated Big photos. It seems he's become quite the celebrity since I first posted his puppy pictures about 3 months ago. Well, much has changed with Big, the obvious thing being his size. He's quite a bit, well, bigger. We knew we were getting

I do joke about this a lot... Migraine: The Musical... Vicodin: The Musical, etc. But if you really tried to envision a migraine musical, it would likely be completely silent and dark with all the actors ambling about moaning and holding their heads, perhaps vomiting, and some would just be unconscious under a blanket. Not much to see and certainly

If so, then you won't be disappointed in these flowers. (By the way, that title is a quote from one of my all time favorite movies, A Knight's Tale.) My pal Pam and I went to the orchid show at the Missouri Botanical Gardens on Saturday. I'm so glad she invited me... it had been years since I'd been there and

I hate daylight savings time. There, I said it. I don't like the shorter days in the fall nor the dark mornings in the spring. It takes my body days to adjust and I grumble to myself the entire time cursing whomever thought of such a torturous event. There are 2 presumed architects of the original idea of daylight savings time.

So I finished Outlander by Diana Gabaldon sooner than I expected. I realized on Saturday, when I only had about 25% left to read, that I didn't have book 2 of the series. So I ordered it, and the other 5 in the series, right away. Well, I knew it wouldn't arrive until today and there I was stuck

I just started reading this after coming off of the Sookie Stackhouse novels (a.k.a. True Blood on HBO) by Charlaine Harris. It's always a good sign when you smile and even laugh on page 4 of a book. Diana Gabaldan didn't waste any time endearing her characters to the reader. The main character, Claire, is a strong-willed and independent

Most everyone that knows me knows that I get a lot of migraines. I don't say it to garner pity from anyone. Just stating facts. And the facts are that since about 1992, the year I graduated college, I've been plagued with migraines. I get about 20 migraines a month. Now that seems like a lot, and for a while

[M] spends the better part of his days down on the farm riding his quad. Luckily there are many trails cut out near the house that all lead back to the yard. So he's able to go out on them by himself and he won't get lost. He also spends a lot of time just riding around the yard trying

Ok, so we have this book that is sort of a field guide to being a "free-range" child. It's called 50 Dangerous Things (You Should Let Your Children Do). It's not teaching them to build a nuclear device or plan a hostile takeover of a 3rd world nation... it's just filled with stuff that we did as kids. And yes,

I know I said I'd try to update the blog chronologically from where I left off at the beginning of winter, but this is fresh in my head so I wanted to blog about it before I lost it for good... This week, I finished Charlaine Harris' Sookie Stackhouse novels. Such fun books to read! I swear, I never thought vampire

Ok, so I got a puppy for Christmas. I wasn't drugged, as far as I know. There's even a vague recollection of me actually asking for one. It's fuzzy (my memory). It gets all jumbled up in my mind... I hear squeaker toys, smell puppy breath, with some shivering cold outside at 2am in my bathrobe in there too... I
