That’s Just What They’ll Do

My boots fit!  I am so excited to have boots to wear with skirts and dresses this fall and winter.

Lost in September

September 7th, 2011 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Pointless Updates, What I Did Last Weekend

Wow, I had a super great Labor Day weekend.  I hope you did, too! I outlined my plans in my last post, and I can say that all of that went off without a hitch.  I had a great time at the 90s dance and a good turnout from those that I invited on Facebook [...]

A Bright Shiny New Monday

July 11th, 2011 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Ongoing Projects, Pointless Updates

Things that can make a regular Monday morning seem exciting and new, a break from the ordinary: A) I have on new nail polish!  It looks like this one, but it’s not this one.  Same brand, though.  Orange is my favorite nail polish color, and this is my favorite brand of polish, but they didn’t [...]

If You Lived Here, You’d Be Home By Now

June 7th, 2011 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Pointless Updates

Buy my house! Yes, it’s still on the market.  The novelty has worn off and I’m pretty exhausted by the whole thing, despite not having had a showing in a week now.  I have had several showings, and an open house to boot, but it’s been quiet for the past few days.  It looks like [...]

A Nice Place to Live and Work

May 25th, 2011 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Pointless Updates

In a few minutes, I’m headed upstairs for a “celebration of service” office lunch.  I have been at the University of Missouri for five years this summer, and it’s exactly five years ago today that I closed on the house that I’m currently trying to sell.  (Want to buy it?)  It is amazing how time [...]

It Will Never End

May 13th, 2011 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Pointless Updates

I am so tired, and I wish this weekend was going to be more relaxing than it promises to be, but… it’s promising to kick my ass.  I’ve been in this mode for so many weekends in a row now that I’m starting to lose my motivation or ambition.  I’m tired and I want to [...]

Keeping Warm When It’s Cold

January 26th, 2011 · No Comments · In Summary, Pointless Updates

I have really been feeling the cold this year.  I don’t know if it was the extra few pounds of weight loss last summer, some of which I gained back anyway, or if it’s just that it’s colder this year, but I recognized in November, before we’d even had any cold days, that I was [...]

Hello

July 7th, 2010 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Pointless Updates

It was a good weekend, one of those weekends that hits every note: laziness, socializing with family, sleeping late, being productive with hobbies, cleaning & laundrying, reading, watching TV, eating unhealthy foods, having a great time… it was all of these things.  I really love summer holidays.  The Fourth of July is right up there [...]

Here We Are Now

Aha, finally got that Twitter-to-blog thing working, as you can see from the below post.  If you want to follow me on Twitter, I’m @aabbbiee.  But you don’t have to follow me there if you check this regularly, because the tweets will be posted here individually, like you see below. So, yeah, I’m leaving for [...]

My Everest is 17 Days in a Row at the Gym

May 18th, 2010 · No Comments · Movies, Pointless Updates, Television

I’m still kind of testing the waters with regard to all of the posts that are now appearing here automatically from Twitter and Facebook and Flickr.  They rely on plugins, not all of which work very well.  I am not the greatest of hackers, so it takes me time to figure out why things aren’t [...]
