Apparently, there are thousands of people in this world who are scared of nutcrackers. It’s true. Google it sometime. Personally, nutcrackers never bothered me as much as the giant rats in the Nutcracker Ballet did. Until the other day that is.
My sister and I found these nutcrackers in Target. I’m sorry for the poor picture [...]

My husband and I really enjoy visiting Arkansas. The people are so nice, the scenery is gorgeous, and the cost is reasonable. The summer of 2003 we took a trip down to Eureka Springs. At the hotel, I picked up several of those brochures that list activities for tourists to participate in. The one for [...]

I got this idea from Be Different Act Normal (http://bedifferentactnormal.blogspot.com/). If you haven’t gone over there yet, you totally should; she has some of the cutest ideas!
For this, I Mod Podged orange tissue paper to a quart Ball Mason Jar. Then I cut the mouth and eyes out of black cardstock and mounted the face on [...]

Do you ever have conversations where, at the end, you think, “Self, that conversation was so ridiculous that I can’t believe you wasted brain cells on it”? I had three of those today.
There are 3 banks in my town. All are small town banks and I like using small town banks. I do it on [...]
What to Expect When You Have a Toddler – The REAL Story.
Posted in Funny, Funny Posts on October 18, 2009 | 3 Comments »
There’s just some nuggets of information missing from the What to Expect Series of books. What follows is my horrifying account of some of that information.
My husband and I learned early on that the only way this marriage thing was going to work for us was if we had separate bathrooms. That is because my [...]
Scaring Kids On Halloween.

There is a camp of people who believe that the whole purpose of Halloween is to scare children. Well, I have found the scariest thing ever – sure to traumatize all the children in your life!
Mmmmmm…cannibalism.
(Is it just me or does that poor child look terrified?)
It goes against my better judgement to provide this link, [...]

Martha Stewart has a project on her site wherein she printed out a picture and did like a paint-by-number with glitter kind of thing. I would love to provide you the link, but I can’t find it. The project was on the front page of MarthaStewart.com for days, so I’m sure it’s there somewhere, but [...]

I really like looking at old pictures. I don’t particularly care to own old pictures except those of my family, but I do like looking at them. (Who wants a bunch of pictures of strangers hanging around?) However, I could not resist buying this one at an estate sale this summer. The little girl is [...]
Glitter Pumpkins.

If you have been reading my blog for any length of time, you will know that I love glitter. On everything. Except the back pocket of adult jeans; that’s just ridiculous. So I was almost elated to find this awesome new (?) product at Hobby Lobby on Saturday.
It’s glue … with glitter … and sequins!
Well, [...]

Is there life on the moon? Who knows. There’s no better way to find out than to bomb the hell out of them though.

Wal-Mart needs some standardization. I specifically went to Wal-Mart today instead of Target even though I would prefer Target because I needed a couple things that Target doesn’t carry. I know the [...]
