Bitching and moaning

Is the earth spinning backwards right now?

by Kathi D on August 20, 2008

Both Clay Aiken and Ricky Martin have now fathered children. I’m sorry. I may have to be hospitalized for a few days while I sort this out.

The Russian has humbled me

by Kathi D on August 20, 2008

Dang it! How I hate being put in my place by those Russkies! I shouldn’t be surprised, though. My husband’s grandparents emigrated from Russia, so I am not unaware of their strengths and Communist charms. My father-in-law Nick (His Real Name Since he is No Longer Living and Able to Sue Me or Have Me [...]

I’m in Boise and you’re not

by Kathi D on August 1, 2008

Well, I’m not so braggy-pants now, am I? We drove from Sun Valley to Boise today, a distance of about 100 miles and six levels of Hell. We have never spent a night in Boise before, and I well remember Rick instructing me to make reservations at a “charming” place and not one of those [...]

by Kathi D on June 6, 2008

I was saying to BFF Susan the other night, “I’ve been working like . . .” and she said a mouthful. “Like a farm animal.” Amen, sister! I have been planting up a storm. OK, maybe that doesn’t look like a lot of planting to you, but I had to do a lot of planting [...]

Well now. That was an interesting weekend.

by Kathi D on June 2, 2008

It started on Friday afternoon when I got pistol-whipped to the ground and left for dead by an angry policeman. Then there was a lot of painting and a lot of planting, and I almost but not quite washed my truck. Hmmm. Where to begin? I hear a lot of you screaming “Painting!” and a [...]

I seem to have some additional applicants for the coveted position of House Helper. I will be holding open auditions, and just to let you know, my back is usually itchy and I have Flatulence Issues. So sturdy fingernails and a degree of olfactory impairment are definite Pluses. Also, I am quite the Idea Person, [...]
