This post is for you, Cha Cha, just in case you needed a Dave Grohl fix!
So I’ve mentioned Them Crooked Vultures before — the incredible SuperGroup comprised of Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters), Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age) and John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin). I have heard people say that it’s Nirvana meets Led [...]

I was driving home from taking Lauren to school this morning when “Over You” by Daughtry came on my iPod. For the record, I am less a fan of Daughtry’s music and more a fan of his body, but that’s another post for another day. In any event, I have heard this song [...]

What do you get when you cross Dave Grohl (Nirvana, Foo Fighters) with Josh Homme (Kyuss, Queens of The Stone Age) and John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin)???
Freakin’ awesomeness, that’s what!!

Lately, I’ve been getting by on just 3-4 hours of sleep a night. That worked fine for me once — you know, when I was in COLLEGE!! I’m not quite as resilient as I used to be, apparently. My fibro is flaring up and I’m dozing off in the middle of answering [...]

Lately, I’ve been doing some spring cleaning, literally and figuratively. Yes, I know it’s not Spring. It just so happens that Autumn always feels like a fresh start, I think. It’s back-to-school time and it always brings up memories of fresh narrow-ruled paper, new crayons and sharpened pencils, and the crisp freshness [...]

I’ve decided to turn over a new leaf and get back in shape, and I thought the best way to accomplish that would be to do some sort of physical exercise that was fun to me. So without any expense or any time commitment, I turned on my iPod, cranked up the volume and [...]

I should be working on the schedule this morning, but instead I am cuddling my very sick little girl (who loves when she gets to be in Momma’s cozy bed, even if it means she’s sick) and entertaining myself by reading blogs. I’m confident I will meet the schedule deadline later this week, but [...]

I have been reading and re-reading this version of St. Teresa’s Prayer almost constantly over the last week. This prayer, combined with my daughter’s juicy kisses and a fair bit of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream, has definitely calmed my soul. I am aware that there are those who are suffering much more than [...]

It’s true when they say “You can take the girl out of the country, but you can’t take the country out of the girl.”
The first fourteen years of my life were spent in a tiny town of only 500 people. Wikipedia now says it’s over 800, so they’ve apparently had a population boom in [...]

Today is Miracle Treat Day at Dairy Queen. For every Blizzard that is sold today, one dollar is donated to the local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital. Because I work at a CMN hospital, and because I care for and love these children who are most in need of miracles, this is a cause [...]
