Not my most favorite but one of my favorite seasons of the year is about to start in less than 36 hours. I am not talking summer, spring, winter or fall – I have a favorite there, too. I am talking college football! I, ever since attending West Virginia University in the early 80’s, have… Continue reading Favorite Season of the Year
Okay, so you all may not be able to relate to this entry. If you have ever signed up for an account at an online dating/personals site, you will understand. Remember back to when you first signed onto cupid.com? You wrote the profile and then clicked on all those little “traits” – height, build, eye… Continue reading So what do all those things mean?
I have said it before, I am a science geek. My kids even call me a geek. They don’t seem to mind when I can help with homework, though. I got up at 4:40 am today to have time to make coffee before the start of the lunar eclipse. Before starting the coffee, always the… Continue reading Lunar Eclipse
While I do not find the article I just read on the magazine’s web site, I did read a recent article about political contributions. I found the article very interesting for several reasons. The article discussed why it was still men that were the big donors, the ones getting face-to-face time with the candidates. Women… Continue reading A Most Interesting Article
I am not a big fan of MSNBC but I was channel surfing on Friday night – what do all good mothers of teenagers do on Friday nights ? We can’t possibly go out in public as that would mean we may run into our kids and their dates. Mike someone or other from Boston… Continue reading Politics and Healthcare Alert

My hair has been fairly long for several years. When I would get it cut, I would basically get a trim. Who knows the thought process! Certainly, not me. Anyway,… Continue reading I did it!
I am a science freak! I love a lot to do with different branches of science but my fav is earth science – which, of course, makes some of my kids laugh. Anyway, anything a parent or teacher can do to make science more interesting is good – the Perseid meteor showers, a once in… Continue reading Lunar Eclipse Alert
Well, no, I didn’t run over someone and not fess up or steal anything. This is a parental ethical dilemma. My daughter gave me one of her brand new textbooks from her first semester at college. She has since changed majors and schools. I had originally given her the money to pay for her textbooks.… Continue reading Ethical Dilemma
Nothing like three blog entries in one day to say “you should be doing something useful.” I was toying with an impromptu visit to my sister in NJ on Sunday. Then, I started thinking. Never a good idea. First, there is the youngest who would want to go see Aunt Beth. He is doing two… Continue reading The Annual Perseid Meteor Showers
I am on a roll today. Yesterday, work was really busy and left me little time to type. Due to that, I saw a lot of news/articles but do not put my opinion down to the page. I am a huge college football fan. Many reasons for this love but suffice it to say that… Continue reading Just what the h*** is college for?
