Birthday Blahs
My big 3-0 birthday was Sunday – the main reason I haven’t posted in the last couple of days. I never get depressed when my birthday comes around, but I definitely feel it emotionally. It’s not even the number that gets to me. I guess I’m more likely to look back at my life when [...]

Links Galore
I really need to go through my mailbox – and soon!!! When I’m looking around online and find something I like or that I find interesting, I e-mail myself the link. Do I ever go to those links? No. My mailbox just keeps getting fuller and fuller! Thanks goodness for Gmail!

Chocolate Bunco
I’m hosting the monthly Bunco game at my house next Friday night and I need some help. We normally have regular party fare, but decided that since it’s so close to V-Day we would have all chocolate!
