What does your mother and social media have in common?  I dare say lots =)  Let's compare notes. Both have given birth to something wonderful and unimaginable.  Both have fed our insatiable appetite for all things curious.  Both have wiped our snotty noses and given us a spankin' on occasion whe...

I Remember Saying... Is This Legal?  When I entered the home, I couldn't believe my eyes... I saw a corral of animals in every room.  I was so stunned, I remember saying out loud... Is this legal?  Words that I would later eat for dinner with a boar hog ;-) I was greeted by the owners... hubby wa...

I rarely re-blog anything... but every now and then I stumble upon greatness that blows me away.  Rene Fabre' is one of my favorite bloggers in the Rain, and his reflective posts represent some of the best story-telling I've read in a long time.  Seriously, this man should be writing for a living...

Monday Morning Mocha with Yogi It's another GORGEOUS day in Southern Oregon!  I'm easing into what's going to be a very busy week... enjoying a cup of Joe on my deck with my little buddy bear...

Hey Girl, Oh... the road you've traveled to get here.  You always liked the scenic route... the long and windy road, layered with potholes.  If I could've warned you about some of those twists and turns, I would've, but I'm certain you would've taken the long way around anyway.  You can be pig-he...

I can't tell you how many times I've juggled more than one thing at a time.  Perhaps the idea was born out of a secret desire to be a super hero.  The thought of sporting a Wonder Woman cape was always a childhood fantasy.  Whatever the case, I've learned that when I touch more than one thing at ...

I Just Shipped My Pants!  Ok... this ad made me think of Scott Nowling and a post he recently wrote about humerous marketing.  I laughed so hard, I almost shipped my pants!  Seriously, this short video (35 seconds) has gone totally viral and is the hottest tweet of the day!  Watch it... you may j...

Something I regret.... Many of you know how special my Mom was to me.  I've written several posts about her and I've shared the tremendous impact she had on my life.  Today would've been her 73rd birthday.  If I had known then that she would only live to see her 55th birthday, I would've done a f...

Recently, I read a Bio about Suze Orman that sparked a thought I have about life in general... Sometimes courage trumps skill (except perhaps in a courtroom, or when you're performing a lobotomy).  Naturally, skill is a great thing to have, but if it doesn't come naturally, you can usually acquir...

  I Like My Coffee... It's Monday morning, and Tax day no less.... so I thought I would post a cute video that one of my agents sent to me (which cracked me up!).  Why?  Because it's so true!  The video is super short (36 seconds) and worth viewing simply for the smile factor ;-) Happy Monday Eve...
