At first, I thought the Elf on the Shelf was just another example of how sexist our society is because I’d only ever seen male elves. Regardless, I’m going to voice my concerns over this creepy little doll regardless of the fact they have added a female version. They certainly don’t have any elves of color… Read More Elf on the Shelf
Normally this never happens to me….today I have not one, but two topics I want to talk about. I’ve invented another word for this…Blogblend. I’m adding that to the list of Annette Mori words and now I have: Romash, Inebetweenquel, Instafacetweet and Blogblend. A Blogbled is a blending of two or more completely different topics… Read More Blogblend
Today is Black Friday and personally, I think that is a gruesome name for the day. I was talking to my nephew’s wife yesterday at our annual traditional Thanksgiving dinner where we go out to eat instead of the muss and fuss of cooking. She was a wealth of information on why the day was… Read More Black Friday
Right about now we start thinking about that wonderful holiday, Thanksgiving and what we are thankful for. Because I’m old, I had to look back at previous blogs so I wouldn’t follow in my father’s footsteps and repeat or rehash stories I’d written about before. For many people, Thanksgiving is their favorite holiday or a… Read More Thank You…Thank You Very Much

Not only am I experiencing a writer’s block like none I’ve ever come across before in the three years I’ve been writing, but it has now extended to my blogs. I didn’t know what to write about today, so I decided… Read More The Wall

Change is hard sometimes but necessary. Whenever I’ve made changes in my life, the change prompts a completely new routine. When I lost my job, I didn’t know how to behave. I didn’t have to get up at 4:30a anymore and soon got into the habit of sleeping in until 6:30a or 7:00. I’d toss… Read More Routines and Habits
If you follow my blog and various Facebook posts, you probably already know I took a brand new position in Forks, Washington which is the rainiest place in the United States. Forks is also where the Twilight series was set. I asked the locals about this because I must admit, I saw all the movies.… Read More Vampire Land

Well, crap…all that time spent on ridding myself of the hoarder gene by getting rid of absolutely everything so we could fit into the 1,000-foot condo is now biting me in the ass. Yup, I could really use one of those three couches we gave away or one the two queen-sized beds. A coffee table… Read More Bring Back The Hoarder
