So, where have I been these looooooooooong months ?I "unplugged" myself from my computer. I won't bore you with the details, but it was a much needed break from my computer. I will be back here, just not daily, probably more like weekly. I think that was part of my problem- I was running out of stuff to write about and it was all sounding like a repeat from the day before. Lots of stuff has

I thought for sure that after the graduation open house party and the fourth of July, that things would start to slow down around here...... boy was I wrong !I've been busy studying and PASSING my motorcycle permit test. Now I can ride my scooter outside of my subdivision without fear of being asked to see my permit. Next up my ABATE class so I can get my license....... oh joy! I've also been

Well, I rode Scarlet for the first time around my neighborhood....... and it WAS SO MUCH FUN! At first I just rode it around my yard. Barry said to practice in the grass first so if I fell I might not get hurt so much. So, that's what I did..... I put an entire mile on it just riding around my yard and my yard is not that big. I looked like a fool riding it with my helmet on in the grass, but I

Meet Scarlet- She was a early ( by 2 months) 40th birthday present from Barry. We picked her up yesterday.I've been wanting a scooter for sometime now, to do quick trips to the grocery store, etc. and I guess my 40th birthday was a good excuse to break down and buy me one. I really wanted a Vespa, but sadly no Vespa dealers in my part of the state. So, he did some research and really liked the

I'm taking a huge leap of faith and entering 4 of my photos into a local (judged) contest. I've entered photo contest before, but those have been online. This will be the first time I've entered them locally and it scares the crap out of me. Picking which photos to enter was painstakingly hard. The ones I really wanted to enter didn't fall into the contests categories. So, I had to go through ALL

It has been a CRAZY few months around here to say the least, but things can now get back to normal........ at least for a little while.On June 9 Michael and Kristin graduated from High School. ( * side note they are "adults" now so I will be using their real names from now on) Fourteen years of school, starting with pre-school, all leading up to this moment. I was/am so proud of those two!

It's been awhile since I've updated my blog- I know MY BAD. I've been busy with house stuff, plus Barry was home for 9 days this month. When he's home I try to limit my computer time to checking emails and even that is done via my iPhone. Around the house I've been getting ready for new living room furniture. When we moved into this house 5 years ago I wanted new furniture so bad but said I

About a month ago a high school classmate invited me to a party she was having. She has these parties once a month. I debated a long time about going or not. Seeing that my 20 year reunion didn't go all that well, I wasn't sure if I wanted to put myself through that again. Since the party invites were sent via Facebook I clicked Maybe attending and left it at that. I asked Barry for his thoughts

Daughter A is my artist, it comes natural to her. About a month ago she came home to tell me that her art teacher entered one of her projects into a show. The kind of art show where it has to be excepted. The kind of art show where she could win a prize. After filling out paperwork and waiting.......... we found out that her project has been excepted to show! Plus her project was the only one

Oldest Son M's Dad and I broke up when Oldest Son M was a few days shy of turning 2. Hurt feelings left along time ago and for the most part we get along really good. We can have a conversation about something other then Oldest Son M and I had no problem inviting him to M's 18 birthday party last summer.

So, It's been FOREVER and a day since I posted anything here. I've had a ton of stuff going on, and truthfully I couldn't come up with anything except me whining, so I figured I would take a little blogging break. But anyway, have I ever talked about my ummmmm obsession with bread? I love everything about the bread...... the smell, the taste, the texture. While American white bread has it's place

The waiting for Barry's check saga is over! His check arrived today at 10:30 AM via UPS overnight.The Plant Manager ended up calling up Mr. Controller and chewing him out big time. Whatever he said worked, because the check was mailed the next day. I only wish I could of been there to see the look on Mr. Controller's face!Funny this is, in 4 days Barry will be sending off this months invoice.....

In 6 short months I will have TWO kids graduating from high school ! I will be taking donations of wine, beer, and hard liqueur . These will of course be used, for my own personal use, to help me not only get through the thought of them both graduating, but also to help me through the planning of their Open House. If sending booze is not your cup of tea, I will also except gift cards to my local

Well, I made a dent in my Great Studio Clean Up project today. I went in there and starting sorting out all of the stuff I knew I was keeping and the stuff that I spent way to much money on to just give it away. I also bagged up all the trash - dried up paint, markers, ink pads, etc. Tomorrow I will start boxing up all the stuff my bestie told me that she did want for sure and then later in the

When we bought this house 5 years ago the basement was unfinished. It was one of the many things we liked about the house, having the ability to expand if we needed to. One of the first rooms to be built was a bedroom for Oldest Son M. He needed his own room and my Dad went to work right away. The plus side of having a Dad who owned ( he's retired now) his own home improvement business is saving

Barry moved into a new rental house last week. It's in a better part of town , much bigger, and has a garage. While it's a better place the stove is how shall I put this............ a piece of crap. There isn't a oven rack and all the cleaning supplies in the world wouldn't clean the stovetop. Because of this his ways of cooking are pretty limited. He has a microwave, one of those George Forman

Daughter A's 16 birthday was on Halloween. The birthday wishes started rolling in pretty early and didn't stop until sometime in the afternoon. One of those calls pretty much knocked me over...... it was her Grandma K, this would be her Dads mom. The reason it shocked me was because that part of her family hasn't spoken to her in almost 2 YEARS! Not by her choice it was ALL THEIRS. The first time

I never thought I would be grateful that Barry signed a two year contract, but in this case I'm thrilled ! I got to talk to him yesterday, yes folks I'm a happy girl because I got to talk to him for a whole 30 minutes before he left for work last night. Anyway while we were talking I just said point blank...... what's the deal with the Poland thing. He laughed and said it's not gonna happen. The

I have been in such a whiney, pissed off mood these last few months. Part of it is being depressed, part of it is being bored, part of it is being frustrated, and part of it is just being pissed at the world.It doesn't help that I can't speak to Barry. I'd give almost anything just to talk to him longer then 5 minutes. It also doesn't help that I'm always thinking about him maybe having to move

There is no sugar coating this to make it not suck as much. For the last month or so Barry has been working the night shift. Long story short he is working on some stuff and needs full control over the machines, and he can only have that at night when they aren't running parts. It just sucks! We hardly talk/text anymore because there just isn't a right time to do it. When he's awake I'm asleep

We had to get all the plates on our cars renewed this week. Long story short the car that Barry drives needed to be emission tested and he just couldn't get it up here in time to have it done. So we decided to have him register it down there in Arkansas. He had that done today and even with all the fees to have the address changed it only cost him $ 38.00 !!!!! To renew the plate here in Indiana

I just put the forms for Oldest Son M to attend USI in the mail. He could use all the positive thoughts he can get.He just makes the requirements to get in. He knows he's messed up in the past and has been working like crazy to try and fix it, but he fears it won't be enough. He has had a huge run of bad luck these last few years, both is school and his personal life. He could really use a dose

On Saturday while waiting in line for the shuttle van to take us on the tour of the dorms at USI, Barry & I were checking our emails. Oldest Son M was texting his girl friend so it was all good.Anyway I quickly went through mine and looked over at Barry just when he got the WTF look on his face. I asked him what they wanted him to do now to which he replied...... "It seems that the president of

Last Friday, oldest Son M and I drove down to Evansville so we could visit the USI campus on Saturday for their southern hospitality day. Barry drove up from Arkansas and we all met up at the hotel.When Oldest Son M was a sophomore he decided that he wanted to be a graphic designer. At first he wanted to just go to a 2 year school strictly for graphic design. By the end of his Jr. year he was

Oldest Son M's great grandmother( his dads side) is not doing well at all. She's 92 years old and has been in and out of the hospital 4 times in the last two weeks. He has been praying the she will be around to see him graduate this spring, but it doesn't look good. Please pray for her. Please pray for him to find the strength to deal with it if it is her time.

This is her last year of dances.Daughter K and her date/boyfriend.Daughter A, Barry, and Daughter K.Daughter A. this was her first dance, she didn't go last year. She didn't go with a date just some friends. She's also not a dress girl at all and it drove her nuts having to wear one.

I survived my 20 year class reunion this past weekend. I can honestly say that in this moment in time, that if and when the next invite comes I will not be going. While my fellow classmates have physically grown older, many of their attitudes have stayed the same.The girls that were stuck up snobs are still stuck up snobs.The guys who thought they were all that still think they are. And the list

This coming Saturday is my 20th high school reunion. Yes, I am THAT old! Last week I went dress shopping and after trying on 40 dresses I found one I could live with. I was never really happy, but being pressed for time I settled on that one. Well, this past Monday I went out to find a cute purse and some jewelry for the "live with" dress. With the hope that maybe with the right bag, shoes, &

Today I went dress shopping for my 20th class reunion, that is a week from this coming Saturday. Yes, I have put it off forever.I'm not a fan of dress shopping..... period! I have a hard time finding a dress that doesn't make me a) look like a grandma or b) all of the dresses are made for someone much taller then me. I must of tried on 40 dresses today and I found one that I can live with. It's

Yesterday I emptied, cleaned and then refilled the hot tub. It wasn't a planned event for the day. It was more or less something that needed to be done if you didn't want to be slimy upon entering the hot tub. I started draining it on Saturday night figuring it would be emptied by morning. I got up butt early Sunday , so I could clean the tub with the hope it would be ready to use again that

By the time this contract is over with Daughter A will be starting her Sr. year of high school and B-Monkey will be starting his freshmen year. Another two years of living in two different states.

My birthday is this coming Saturday, I'll be 39.For months now I have racked my brain with trying to come up with something I wanted for my birthday this year. I knew it was only a matter of time before Barry was asking me what I wanted and I just kept coming up with a blank. That was until I was at the appliance store picking out the replacement cooktop for the one that broke. As I was looking

Hello my little blog, boy have I been busy this week.I'm doing all the back to school stuff this week and as much as I'm looking forward to school starting next week..... I dislike the back to school stuff just as much. Please tell me why teachers need to be so picky when it comes to school supplies?

I was so inspired after seeing Julie & Julia last night that I cooked up a storm today.For dinner I made grilled ribeye steaks with herb butter sauce. Along with that I made grilled red skinned potatoes .And for dessert I made mocha chocolate cake ( no box mix ! ) with espresso glaze. To top it off I also made a vanilla sauce.Don't ya just want to lick the photos?

Last night my Bestie and I went to see Julie & Julia .I have been waiting for this movie to come out since the very first time I saw the previews. As a young child and teenager I have such fond memories of watching Julia Childs cooking shows on PBS. Even at that young age I was fascinated by process of taking seemingly simple ingredients and turning them into works of culinary art. During the

Last night for dinner I made rotisserie chicken for the first time and it turned out so good. So much better then the ones you can find in grocery stores.I started the night before with brining my whole chicken like I do my Thanksgiving turkeys. The brine is never the same way twice and is always based on what I want the meat to taste like. For this one after I cleaned out the chicken I put it in

So, Daughter A started making herself some noodles from lunch today. A few minutes later she comes to find me and tells me the cooktop won't light. I have a built in cooktop and built in wall oven that I hate, but that besides the point right now.So, I drag my butt into the kitchen to see what's up. I cleaned the cooktop yesterday and thought maybe something was stuck in the burner and it

Jen over at Making Sense of it All asked me for my BBQ ribs recipes. Since you have an iPhone, Weber grills has a app. that is filled with many of the pork rib recipes I have used. They are all easy and don't require a smoker. Or if you don't want to do the app thing, I make these from the Weber cook book. For my beef ribs I used this recipe from Fine Cooking.In other news:I got to talk to Barry

Ever since Oldest Son M was 12 he has been fascinated with tattoos. At first it was just the art , but as he grew older it was the entire process of getting one and the artist who created them.

When Daughter A and B-Monkey went to Michigan with my Dad , I let Daughter A borrow my "purse camera". I knew she would have a blast taking photos of their trip and I couldn't wait to see what kind of images she captured. When they got home yesterday one of the first things I did was load all of the photos she took onto my computer. Seeing the world through her "eyes" was so much fun. I laughed

First off to answer a few questions that were asked-My photography classes are a distance learning class. They send me the books, audio CD's and DVD's , tests, and the assignments. I'm not under any sort of time frame to get each Unit done, I have 2 years if I need to get the entire program finished. They give you guidelines as to how long each until should take to complete, but it's a go at your

Jen over at Making Sense of it All asked me what I'm learning in my photography classes.So far in Unit 1 I have learned pretty basic stuff:The History of photographyAbout the Camera and how it worksAbout lenses And basic photography skills ( depth of filed and stuff like that)The tests are pretty straight forward and are more or less used to see if you understand what you are learning about.As

In the beginning of the year my friend started sending all of us a question of the week. It's just a fun little thing for us to do on Sundays and we all look forward to them every week. I thought I would share this weeks question with all of you. And if I can remember I will share then every week.What is your biggest pet peeve in the kitchen, besides having to be in there in the first place? All

Well, I didn't get out and take the photos for my photography class like I thought I would. But that's ok I got some things done that I wanted/needed to get done here at home.On Saturday I met up with my Dad and dropped off Daughter A and B Monkey. They went up to the cabin in Michigan and will be back on Thursday. My Dad kept changing the meet up time on me ,which really put a damper on anything

We had a storm come through here sometime in the middle of the night. I was sleeping like a baby when all of a sudden my bed started shaking, which of course woke me up. I jumped right out of bed and could feel the entire house shaking. I could hear the thunder outside and it was so deep and scary sounding. I have never heard thunder that deep sounding in my life. Once it was over with I sat back

I have neglected my blogs so much these past few weeks. I knew this would happen once summer started. It's not like I haven't tired to post, you should see the amount of posts I've started but never finished. It just seemed like every time I started a post one of the kids would ask me a question, would need something ,or the phone would ring. Then I would loose my train of thought about what I

I know, I know I'm way behind with the update I promised this week. I got semi busy again and today is the first day I've had the time to collect my thoughts.Lets see where to begin????Our 4th of July was good, wet but good all the same. We hang out with the same friends every 4th of July, it's become tradition. We start out at our house and watch the parade, then head over to their house for

The other day a hawk landed in one of my neighbors trees. I quickly grabbed my camera to take some pictures of it before it flew away. This was the best of the bunch.In other news I will be back next week. Tomorrow ( Saturday) is Oldest Son M's 18 birthday party, so I'm busy getting ready for that. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

J-Bird is not an outdoor kid. He very happy staying inside all day long, wasting the day away watching TV or playing games. Plus the sun and him just don't get along. I could put the highest SPF sun block on him every 5 minutes and the poor kid will still burn. When he does come outside it's causes major celebrations and checking to see if he's sick or if the world stood still. The sightings of

With the Fourth of July holiday coming and Oldest Son M's 18th (gulp) birthday party soon after that. I have made the decision to take a little break from my blog. I just have way to much stuff to do over the next two weeks and something had to go. I may pop in just to say hi, but I'm not going to force myself to do it either.

A year ago today I was in a plane flying halfway around the world to meet up with Barry for our amazing European trip. Its so hard to believe that its been a year already! It honestly does feel like it was just yesterday. *sigh*

If there is anything not working on either of them please let me know by either posting a comment or sending me a email at looneymom at comcast dot net. One of the many things I'm sure you noticed is that they are both a lot less cluttered. As much as I was loving adding all kinds of widgets and

I was looking through some old photos and came across ones of the bench I helped a friend paint. Many, many long hours of painting with tiny brushes went into this. Its scenes of the square in Crown Point. It now sits on the town square and looks like crud. The lady who owns it refused to let the city have it where they would have placed it inside and taken care of it. I think the "thumb nails"

I've seen this on a few blogs and thought it would be fun.Outside my window- the sun is shining on the lake across the street and it's magical looking.I am thinking- about if I want to go to back to bed now that Oldest Son M has left for summer school.I am thankful for- air conditioning since they say it's going to be 90 today.From the kitchen- grilled zesty lime chicken, garlic red skinned

This is going to be a long post, so you may want to grab something to drink and a snack.I started my photography school work. I knew I couldn't wait until today to start lol. I have finished 2 lessons in Unit one already and have taken 1 test. Right now I'm in information overload, since I have a basic understanding of what I'm ready about, I find myself thinking about all the books I have read

Ever since Daughter K started her teenage years, we have always butted heads. In the beginning years I always brushed it off as her being immature, and as she grew older and more mature things would change for the better. But as she grew older the problems only got worse. While I won't post about things she has done, to protect her, I will say that many things she has done would cause any mom

I had to pick up Daughter A last night in town. I was on my way home, came around the corner and heard this loud sound coming from the car. I asked Daughter A if she heard it and she said yes. As I get to the stop sign the sounds stops, turn the corner the sound starts again and is louder now. I get to the next stop sign about a block away and turn into the subdivision and park. I get out praying
