And nobody told me?

Sometime in the wee small hours of Thursday morning, my 96-year-old Grandma fell and broke her right hip and femur in three different places. She had surgery to repair the damage Thursday afternoon. Now she’s got a shiny new titanium rod holding her femur together. Her doctors expect her to recover, but given her age…

I often like to joke that if there was a sleeping event in the Olympics, I would take home the gold for America. (My friends with sleep apnea and insomnia almost never laugh at this. Go figure.) I’m one of those lucky folks who can easily get their eight or nine hours and wake up…

So, you won’t believe the crazy dream I had last night. It was like something out of a movie, but also kinda freaky. I just had to tell you all about it! Picture this: I’m in this super cool amusement park, like the ones we always talk about going to. The sun’s shining, there are…

Dear Tall Lady Who Sat in Front of Me at the 7pm Showing of “Atonement” Saturday at the Wilma Theatre, I’m sorry. It just wasn’t your night, was it? First you had to deal with me: someone who clearly was unhappy with your presence. Trust me, it wasn’t personal. You see, I have bad mojo…

Today, I’m diving into the world of smartphones to bring you a review of the Nokia 6. Now, Nokia has a history that’s as solid as a brick (in a good way), and with the Nokia 6, they’re continuing that legacy. So, let’s see if this mid-range phone is worth your hard-earned cash. Design and…

After a commercial break, the young female DJ announced that she was playing the “Cockatoo Twins” next. Or, as she put it, “The Cock…Cock…Cockatoo Twins? I can’t make heads or tails of…

The local weather reporters have been predicting severe winter storms for nearly a week now. Last week it was heavy snow and freezing fog. This week it’s single-digit temperatures, black ice, drifting and blowing snow. You know, everything you guys expect a Montana winter to be like: cold, wet, dangerous, nearly Arctic. However, in the…

I was in a pretty good mood until I was checking referrals this morning. Let it just be said that a post from this site was copied verbatim without approval, link-back or any sort of acknowledgment whatsoever. And when contacted? Still no link to this site or the original post, just a lazy mention of…

After Erin offered up a recipe for creamed spinach and then held it ransom for days, she finally broke down and gave me the skinny on the most delicious creamed spinach I’ve ever had. The whole thing costs a small fortune to make and it will probably raise your cholesterol, blood pressure and body mass,…

Wednesday evening I came home, cut some squash, shredded some cabbage and onion, got my ingredients out for the lemon pie, juiced said lemons and was baking the crust and another pie in the oven. Somewhere in the midst of all that I had it in my mind to do a crossword puzzle. As usual,…
