Pot Roast and Mashed Potatoes

My life is boring.  My rolls are rising and I'm about to brush egg whites over them.  I'm also going to go outside and pick beans and squash for dinner.  I might even see if we have carrots to eat.  And of course I'll make sure to kick the dog in passing.

It's true.  Eventually we all turn into our parents in some form.  Much cooler, though.  Oh, and I guess we probably leave certain aspects of our parents behind like my mother's OCD.  Wait.  Nope.  I brought that one along for the ride then handed the crown to my daughter.  Wish I would have brought my mother's patience of Job.

But I am old, boring, and so serious.  But I bought a cute skirt on Macy's this week so at least I'm stylin'. 

Now you're just jealous, aren't you.

    You? Old? Boring? Serious?

    Pshaw!

    You are the epitome of awesomeness. All the "cool" moms would tell you that, but they're afraid to approach you...you're THAT hot.

    You kick animals. I think that at least qualifies you as midly interesting.

    Not only do I get a flutter of excitement when I see you have a new blog post ready to read but I get all excited to read the witty comments your readers leave too. You are cool and witty, sarcastic and sharp. Reading you takes me out of my boring normality and makes me feel sane! I hope that a little of your witty charm rubs off on me. And the comments....! Don't get me started on the comments. If all the women who comment on your blog could be put in a room together it would be dangerously funny!
    Keep writing...!

    Sometimes life is boring. It just makes the exciting times that much more exciting!

    And I think anyone with a garden is exciting!

I am being published!

I know! It just reeks of excitement, doesn't it?  I know what you are thinking. "Who would publish that woman's thoughts?" The answer is a lovely little outfit called www.blog2print.com. In other words, I haven't been discovered. I am no closer to being a published author than I was yesterday EXCEPT that by Christmas I will be the proud owner of my very own blog book! I know. It's a little anticlimactic but here's the cool part. My friend, Becki, found me entertaining and directed me to a blog called www.josikilpack.blogspot.com.  She posted a little coupon code for 20% off which was supposed to end last week. Apparently, the code is still good and I saved $14. That said, you know it isn't exactly the cheapest way to get published but it's the best price I could find on publishing my blog!  And it requires very little technical know-how.  And that, my friends, tickles my heart. And, for a small price of your integrity and dignity, I will share the ...

Wordful Wednesday and Clever Much? Rarely!

Sometimes my brilliance blinds me! Speaking of brilliance, before we continue this discussion, if you are my mother in law, stop reading. Walk away. At least until after Christmas. Seriously. My own mother doesn't read my blog. I think it has something to do with words like "socially awkward" and "mortifying." She knows me. She doesn't have to read about me. She can just pretend like I turned out normal. Anyway, if the mother-in-law has exited the website, check out what she's getting for Christmas! TADA! I'd like to give a special shout out to the internet and whatever site I was cruising through last week for planting this idea into my head. Usually not this creative and I definitely don't know where I got the energy to take the kids out for pictures. Or go to Walmart for the frame. And Robert's for the mat. Costco for the pictures.  Yeah, I painted the frame, too. So not my style. Anymore. I also ordered a canvas print for my husband but I...
