Haiku is simple! It is 3 non-rhyming lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively (a great way to use your fingers!)

Not always sweetness and light

This weekend we celebrated my Dad’s 65th birthday – A great time was had by all.
Please spend some time visiting the wonderful Mosaics at Little Red House’s Mosaic Monday!

We had my father’s 65th birthday party last night.
Wee One helped me decorate…

Doodle Cakes furnished a completely fantastic cake, encompassing many characteristics unique to my Dad…

To explain this wonderful creation; My father is a super hero, leaping to the aid of anyone in our family who shows any distress (whether we want him to [...]

The end of my rope nears!

I still need help – any interest?
 

Our servers have been having issues with a couple faulty drives – you might have noticed that I’ve “disappeared” a couple times recently, and that’d be why. It will happen again as the faulty drives are swapped out, but then we should be ok. Sorry for the disappearing act!
Happy Haiku Wednesday! Hope to see [...]

Note: Our server is having a technical issue – we were down for a bit this morning, and may be down again as a faulty drive is swapped out. Sorry for the disappearing act!

My father turns 65 this weekend. There will be a big family & friends party, a sure-to-be-gorgeous cake done by none other than our friend Doodle Cakes, and lots of food.
I just have no idea what to get my Dad. The man has everything. It’s a special birthday, so clothes won’t do it. Tools, no. [...]

I’ve been very quiet in here lately, and late on a few things that normally I’m very “on top of”. I’ll have to chalk it up to stress – I have a huge contract that I’m trying to complete, which spans the entire country, and finding people for it has proven… problematic.
I am looking [...]

SORRY EVERYONE! This week got away from me. Lost a day somewhere… Please forgive the lateness!!

OF course by now everyone knows that my Teen was at camp almost all summer – I’ve certainly talked about it enough! Didn’t have much in the way of pictures though – today, even though I’m SUPER late with this addition (Sorry Mary!) I thought I’d put some of her personal pictures together for a [...]

I don’t need much. Just sleep!

I’m going to switch gears for a minute and talk about something that has been bothering me for years.
For a long time I’ve found toddler beauty pageants disturbing. I can’t be the only person who clearly sees how destructive and, well, evil it is for these disgusting, socially retarded people to dress innocents up [...]

The Teen and I had a Mother-Daughter evening out, just the two of us, in celebration (ok, I was celebrating, she wasn’t) her return to high school tomorrow.
Sing it with me now:
It’s the Most WONDERFUL Time… of the year!!!
Anyway. Because she was away almost the whole summer, she had not yet seen the latest [...]

Last week we missed Mosaic Monday terribly! I hadn’t known it was on hiatus, so I posted anyway. I’m re-posting that mosaic this week, AND adding one.
I would like to introduce the new websites of two people who are very dear to me!
Please join me in welcoming:
Doodle Cakes: Doodle-Cakes.com!

I’ve been quiet this week due to my father being in the hospital with chest pains. He’s home now, and we’re waiting on some tests to come back and a visit to his cardiologist next week. In all likelihood, he has a blocked artery, and will need either an angiogram/stents, or – and I really [...]
