Yesterday was not a good day at all……too much to do, major glitch with my Christmas cards, cranky people, etc. Today looks like it’s going to be better, YAY! I think I have the card problem resolved after spending way too much time on it; I’m almost through with a “dress up” play dress I’m […]

For kids that would be, exam time! The BSU at the college my kids have attended offers exam survival kits to be delivered to your student right before exams begin.

“I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas……” Yeah, I’ll be dreaming for a while because snow won’t happen in the South. This meme has been going around and I’m a little late but think I’ll do it anyway. 1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate? Hot Chocolate…….although I would probably rather have spiced tea or decaf Peppermint […]
