For those of you who don’t know it, I am a huge hockey fan. Worse than that, I live in upstate NY and am not a big Buffalo Sabres fan (they are okay and if they are the last team left standing I would be fine with that). I am also not a NJ Devils. [...]

I admit that I am a planner. I don’t mind being spontaneous but I like to know that my contingencies have been covered.
I am the woman who could have written the government’s ready site for them. I am not a naysayer but I do like knowing who is where when something happens.
That would explain my [...]

My daughter, mostly but some of my other kids too, played soccer for a long time with a local soccer association. When I had the ability and they were short on officers for the board of directors, I decided to volunteer for a one year stint. I was figuring they may need a secretary or [...]

Okay, temperatures were summerlike yesterday. I was in, as I said, shorts and a sleeveless shirt. I had a great time at my son’s tennis match as it was so beautiful out. I opened windows - that I had washed on Saturday - and there is where the beauty ends.
I left the windows open overnight. [...]

Wow! It is finally warm here. I have on shorts and a sleeveless shirt and am not cold. So my mind is turning to summer. It may approach 80F here and that is definitely summer temps.
This is going to be a different summer for me personally. Normally, summer seems rushed and cramped. My three college-aged [...]

Thankfully for you, you are not where you can hear me singing that out loud!
I woke up this morning, on my own, well before my alarm was set to go off. It is absolutely beautiful out today! The sun is shining. It is 7 am and it is already 45F out (not a big deal [...]

I just can’t decide. I watch horse racing once a year - the first Saturday in May. I pretend to be Mexican once a year - the fifth of May. The big dilemma is which do I plan for in my menu/libation planning for tomorrow.
I was just about set to get some mint julep makings [...]

Normally, I blog here and copy it to Cupid.com where I have a profile. Today, I did it backwards. Below is my blog from Cupid and I am having Yahoo! photo issues so the pic won’t show up.
I am sure my soon-to-be 19 year old daughter is going to freak out. How do I know [...]

It’s just another memory from my past. I am talking about May Day.
In my neighborhood, we use to take old wallpaper sample books. We would pick the papers we loved and make baskets out of them. Then, we would either pick “flowers,” like dandelions or other things that grow in yards that the adults didn’t [...]
