  Ding-Dong & The Great Laundry Fiasco
  About, Just For Fun, life as it is (6)

  What a tremendous feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction to haul that FINAL load of newly washed baby laundry into the house, or at the very least to watch Hubby haul it! As we trudged home after an exhausting day of celebration on the Fourth, Hubby dropped the bag of fragrant receiving blankets, boppy covers and quilts on the front step and headed back to the car to retrieve Princess who was still fast asleep in the back row of the minivan. I grabbed the bag and dropped it just behind my favorite espresso-colored leather chair near our front entrance-way to ...

  They Keep Getting Weirder & Weirder
  pregnancy, Just For Fun (4)

  Just when I thought it was safe to venture back into dreamworld, my dreams have begun getting weirder and weirder! Oh when will these pregnancy nightmares relent? ! Last Monday morning's was a real winner. Flashback to the seventh grade. Empty halls of the after-hours at my Catholic middle school. Lots of green-blue plaid skirts and baby blue round collar oxfords. Classroom doors all out of wack, yet Sister Mary R., my seventh-grade teacher sitting fiercely, as always, at her desk, peering over her bifocals, this time sporting a pack of cigarettes, one of which she lit up before the extra-curricular gathering.  All ...

  Flaunt It Friday: Nicknames
  Just For Fun, Flaunt It Fridays (8)

  I’ve been called by many names in my almost forty years of life. Some by choice. Others by obligation. Some nice. Some not-so-nice.  Some just plain wrong!  All in all I haven’t really been bothered by the variations or the variety. On the contrary, variety is the spice of life! Nicknames are a funny thing, though. Sometimes a person can get stuck with a rather unpleasant one, and, as we all know, nothing sticks like a nickname, especially in high school! So tell us, with which nicknames have you been addressed over the years and by whom? Which of them has proven ...

  Monday Musings: The Power of Laughter
  Monday Musings, Just For Fun (3)

  When exactly was the last time you encountered amusement sufficient to rock your entire body with outlandish laughter and hilarity? I’m not talking about a simple chuckle or the “I can relate to that” kind of giggle after reading an entertaining blog post.  Let’s talk side-splitting, laughter-induced coughing and choking, pants wetting humor! Can you remember that last time you felt that? How good did it feel? Scientific studies have long been singing the praises of a good laugh.  In light of this weekend passed, I have to say, I am a believer.  Over the last few days we “discovered” a ...

  Just For Fun: The Bet
  Have You Seen This Yet?, Just For Fun (2)

  I'm truly not in the habit of circulating email jokes, but darn it if this one didn't just have me rolling on the floor! Thanks, Nikkiangel!  *** Author unknown *** An elderly woman walked into the Bank of Canada one morning with a purse full of money. She wanted to open a savings account and insisted on talking to the president of the Bank because, as she said, she had a lot of money. After many lengthy discussions (after all, the client is always right) an employee took the elderly woman to the president's office. The president of the Bank asked her how much ...

  Princess Point of View: Palm Sunday
  princess point of view, Just For Fun (2)

  Sunday. March 16th. Palm Sunday. The start of Holy Week for the Catholic World. The Priest dresses in Red in rememberance of Christ's sufferings. The Church statuary is hidden by purple coverings so as not to distract from our focus on the mystery of Christ's Passion and Death. Long Mass. Two very distracted little girls. Princess: (looking for the crucifix in its usual place above the altar & commenting in the loudest possible non-Church voice she can muster) "Mama, where's Jesus?" themommykelly: (attempting to wrestle the blessed palms from Drama Queen who is using them as an imaginary fishing pole while trying to save the pew ...
