Last night was the end of the 2006-07 National Hockey League season. This is really a huge testiment to the athleticism of an NHL player as the season started in October. While I am not a huge Anaheim Ducks fan nor a big Ottawa Senators fan – I lean towards Ottawa because they have a… Continue reading Hockey Into Off Season for Another Year
I think I would be very mad if I were running for president. First, they have me politicking earlier and earlier than ever before. I am wondering what would happen if we all ignored the 18 declared candidates of both parties until November or December. I am sure that would be a disaster for media… Continue reading Presidential Politics and Debates
Yesterday was the Maine-Endwell Chicken Barbeque. This is the main fundraiser for the Maine-Endwell Music Boosters – a group that supports music in the four schools in the Maine-Endwell school district. Yesterday’s was really interesting. It was the first time I was an officer of the music boosters so I worked a bit more than… Continue reading What a Weekend!
While I am sure other areas have this phenomenon, I swear I truly live in the land of the church bazaar. For those of you unfamiliar, a church bazaar – at least in the great Binghamton, NY area – is a fund raiser for whatever church it is held at. Normally, it includes a tent… Continue reading Land of the Church Bazaar
I admit that Glamour is not my magazine of choice any longer. It probably hasn’t been my magazine of choice for over 20 years, once I started having kids. Nowadays, I am likely to have it in the shopping cart for an art project for my daughter or to mail to the daughter away at… Continue reading The Next Jake
I have said it before – my calendar looks rather inky. I cannot seem to find many spots where there is not something written and the events keep coming. This weekend is one of my favorite events of the year – the annual Music Boosters’ Chicken Barbeque. We are all praying for good weather, though… Continue reading Music Boosters’ Chicken BBQ
Yes, as I have said before, I have a profile on an online dating site. I blog there as well as here but here is today’s question or thought. Do books and movies corrupt our view of life? I have a very busy life and very busy weekend. I am actively – probably not as… Continue reading Do books and movies corrupt our view of life?
It is beautiful outside – already 60F which is unusual for this time of year where I live. I am on my way…. to Niagara Falls. It is one of my favorite road trips and I make it about 12 times a year. I am heading to Lewiston and Niagara Falls to pick up my… Continue reading On the Road …. Yet Again
Yes, it is true! Memorial Day weekend is upon us which means so is the unofficial start to the summer season and I can’t wait. First, this is the only weekend all summer that all of my kids will be home. My three oldest are not coming home from college this year – one is… Continue reading Hooray for Memorial Day!
My spring road trips have been few and far between for me. Normally, spring consists of trips every weekend. This year, there have been three so far. There was the March trip to Niagara Falls for my daughter’s first honor society induction. This was a quick day trip. There was the weekend trip to New… Continue reading On the Road Again
