Shopping With Mom

( Holidays and Mom and POV and Shopping and The South )

RING! RING!
“What the hell?”
RING! RING!
“It’s 4:00 in the freaking morning, why is my alarm going off? OHHHHH. Black Friday. Crap.”
And so it began…
We arrived at Wal-Mart at 4:45 a.m.. Yes you read that time correctly. Yes we are nuts. Your point? Anyway, the sale began at 5:00 a.m.. It was a 24 hour store [...]

Blessing Overload

( Ally da Pup and Holidays and Mom and POV and The South and Travel )

“God bless us, everyone!” said that nauseating little creep charming boy in fiction, Tiny Tim.
Whoops, wrong holiday. My bad.
Anyway, I’m off to Texas to count my blessings, y’all. I’m going to be spending Thanksgiving week with my lovely Mom. Plus I get to see my extended family and friends, so there will be mucho [...]

Don’t Ignore The Universe

( Holidays and Life and POV )

Let’s see. What to write about. Hmmm.
I don’t feel like pontificating, ranting, musing, or amusing.
I think all those meds wiped my brain clean of any creative thoughts, (assuming I ever had any.)
Either that or the universe is telling me to play.
And just who am I to ignore the universe?
Have a GREAT holiday weekend, everyone!

My Boogie Shoes Need New Soles

( Bloggers and Exercise and Health and Holidays and Music and POV )

Since I don’t make New Year’s resolutions, I decided to beat the pack and start back at the gym after Christmas. I was very proud of myself, that is until I saw all the people who never stopped going in the first place. But I will say in my defense, I have been building my [...]

Happy New Year!

( Bloggers and Celebrations and Holidays and New York and POV )

*Raises a glass to YOU*
Happy New Year to my fellow Bloggers!
Stay safe, and remember no drinking and driving. Or walking drunk in Times Square, (as if!)
See you in 2007.

Happy Holidays!

Peace on earth for all mankind.

Wishing you and yours joy, happiness, and peace.
Hugs from Lisa B. & Ally da Pup.

Surely You Breast!

( Celebrations and Friends and Health and Holidays and Mom and POV )

About 10 days ago, on a sunny Thursday afternoon, I had a mammogram. It had been a while and it was time to get it done. The radiologist’s office did the usual squooshie mooshie thing and I was finished for another year. The technicians were very professional and nice, and it was much easier than [...]

Hands Out Across America

( Holidays and Money and New York and POV )

I just received a holiday card. From the fine folks at my bottled water company. Conveniently, it had the delivery guy’s name and address listed along with their best wishes. Here we go again, it’s that time of year… Holiday tipping. Ugh. While I am grumpy as all hell happy to pay extra for doing [...]

How I Spent my Thanksgiving Holiday

( Carbs and Holidays and Mom and POV and Shopping and The South )

I hope you all had a fabulous Thanksgiving! I did the usual, spent time with Mom, saw extended family and special friends, helped prepare our holiday fare, and last but not least shopped on Black Friday. We were at the mall at 5:45 a.m., and for all you naysayers, well piffle on you. We SCORED [...]
