I love this post by Becca over at Mother Earth’s Garden. I’ve had thoughts like this before, but it’s fun to see someone actually doing it. One way to leave the earth a bit better than it was before you got here. The above photo is of one of the many stray hollyhocks that beautify [...]

I mentioned that a friend is producing a short film. Casting calls are this Saturday, July 28th. Filming will be the weekend of August 17th here in the Dayton area. If you’re at all interested, post a comment and I’ll get you her e-mail address and that. Seriously, if you have any acting aspirations at [...]

I love this time of night, especially when it’s raining. This photo is from a big storm that we had last week. The night sounds are indicating that a similar storm is brewing now. When we first moved into our house, we swore one of the first things that we were going to do was [...]
Trying new things…

It’s been a crazy busy weekend, but a really good one. And very fun because I can say that I did two things I’ve never done before! 1. Auditioned at an open casting call for a short film. (Yes, you, I did actually do it. ) No, I don’t really think I can act. It [...]

We SAHMs get a lot of teasing about sitting around watching soaps and eating bonbons. I figured, as long as we’re taking the slack for it, I might as well figure out what a bonbon is and what’s so great about it. Mmmm….this is an ice cream bonbon from Trader Joe’s. Cookie crust bottom, ice [...]

And Dad’s birthday rolls around….again…..already. And, if it seems possible, I miss him more today than ever before. They say the days get easier, and some aspects of it do, for sure. But the multitudes of missed moments and events at which he should have been here are mounting and I hate it. I see [...]
It’s insomnia week at MNIM…
Posted in Life on July 14, 2007 | 7 Comments »
I’m having a bit of a battle with insomnia this week, not sure why. There’s no major stress going on, nothing more to worry about than usual, nothing particularly exciting. I’ve never been particularly good at falling asleep. If you’re one of those people who are snoring withing 2 minutes of your head hitting the [...]
Seven Random Facts About Me…

Gill tagged me for a 7 random facts post. It’s taken me awhile to get to it, but here we go!!!!!! 1. I learned how to start an IV the other night. No, it wasn’t on Bald Man’s arm. Are you kidding me? I wouldn’t want to have had to try to resuscitate him, too! [...]
