Remember this day? Remember I said that the Flashlight Drawing was my favorite session? I finally went to pick up the disc of our art. There aren’t many things that interest me more than writing, photography, and art. If I had to live my days as the starving artist, I believe I’d choose that over being an Orange County Housewife … Read More

I cleaned out my expired coupons (I’m not going to tell you when I did it, but I did it and I took a picture of it!) Now I have hardly any left because I didn’t call the Post Tribune to give them my new debit card number after my old one expired, so I’m not getting the paper anymore. … Read More

Dream 1. (note: I drive an old beater 1994 gray Lincoln Continental, Phil has been a 2000 Chevy Prizm) So. The dream is, I’m driving my Lincoln. I pull up at my destination, pop the trunk, and get out. Someone is driving by slowly, it’s someone I know, and they say, “Wow. How on earth did you do that?” “Do … Read More
