Do you Black Friday?

November 20, 2011

I have never been one to wake up at 4am for anything, especially Black Friday. It’s too early, too crowded and unless you are looking for the 10 laptops that Best Buy is selling for $3 each, the deals aren’t that great. My husband, the techie, seems to think that Black Friday as a day [...]

Man, I feel like a human!

November 19, 2011

I am finally starting to return to the land of the walking. Today is the first day I have felt like a human being in over a week. That’s the good news. The bad news is the husband is now sick. I don’t think he has a sinus infection like I did but he’s definitely [...]

Funny how life works

November 18, 2011

I was just opening my laptop to compose a post about how terrible cable TV is. I was going to talk about the fact that there is absolutely nothing worth watching that I can’t get online or through Netflix. Just as I was forming this into a post topic, I got an error in my [...]

Movies to get you through sickness and health

November 17, 2011

When I get sick, there are a few movies that I just love to watch. The A&E version of Pride and Prejudice is one of those movies. I swear, I think I’ve watched it three times in the past week. It’s just one of those movies that I can watch over and over. It’s classic [...]

Still sick

November 15, 2011

Went to the doctor today and was told that I have some super cold that is going around. Apparently, a lot of people have it. It’s nasty business and there really isn’t anything you can do except hydrate and sleep. Oh joy! Did I mention that I am a horrible patient? Hopefully, I will be [...]

I’m a terrible patient

November 14, 2011

As I posted the title of this post, my husband looked over at the screen and said “Yup”. Apparently, he believes this for an entirely different reason than I do. When I’m sick, I’m pretty miserable. I think I get cranky and moody. I tend to sleep a lot when I get sick. I really [...]

Are video games frugal?

November 13, 2011

When people find out that my husband and I play video games, most of them say “Well, that’s not very frugal!” Actually, it’s more frugal than you think or at least it can be. This week, Bethesda released Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. This is a role-playing game, which because it is a new release we [...]

Do you ever had those days where you get so stressed out that you just shut down? I had one of those days today. I had a really stressful situation late this morning and after dealing with the situation, I was pretty much done for the day. I’m one of those people who does very [...]

Three wishes for 11/11/11

November 11, 2011

When I was in high school my friend Kara always made a wish whenever she saw 11:11 on the clock. I reminded her of this yesterday and she told me she still does. The reason I was thinking about this yesterday was because I saw today’s writing prompt for NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month), which encouraged participants [...]
