18 Aug 2009It’s amazing how many people love Oscoda. We have groups on facebook dedicated to the love of the little northern town. I read a blog on Pure Michigan by a guest poster who names Oscoda as on of her favorite places in Michigan. I always wonder how the residents feel with us summer and some [...]
This summer has been pretty fantastic. I’ve been going out of town a lot. Lisa and I are leaving for Oscoda tomorrow after work. I made jello shots last night. Mmmmm. Lime jello with tequila and raspberry jello with vodka. I’ll leave out the part where I spilled some on the cookie sheet so the [...]

5 Aug 2009What is it about August that screams, “Let’s start construction EVERYWHERE!” You know the joke, Michigan has two seasons: Winter & Construction. I take three major highways on my commute to Ann Arbor. All three of them have had some type of construction on them. Nothing was too irritating until this past week. They have [...]

I have wanted to create a website from scratch for awhile now, but it’s really hard to get motivated when you don’t have a specific project. I toyed with the idea of building a website to house my blog, but wordpress is just so easy to use and besides my blog, I don’t know what [...]
When my mom was 27 she had me. I am going to be 27 in 6 weeks and I am in no place to have a baby, nor do I have any plans to. It litereally makes my head spin thinking about it. Yet all these girls I went to school with, my closest friends [...]
My mom’s friend was looking for a good photo of my mom to use for her sister’s Relay for Life. I came across this picture from my 21st birthday. The last time we were a whole family. June 14, 2003. My mom passed away a little more than a month later.
Do you ever feel like you keep moving but you know you are forgetting something? You have so many chores, thoughts, important things swirling around in your head you are certain you have dropped one of those proverbial balls? I don’t get overwhelmed easily. I’m a good multi-tasker and in some ways like the Energizer [...]
