Random and Odd

ok. not good. probably bad.

  • Time Warp…

    At least two times a week we are watching Rocky Horror Picture Show.   As many times as it has been on, I still haven’t watched the whole thing yet.  I have seen some of the first, a tiny bit of the middle, but the end I have seen about 15 times now. I roll my…

  • Don’s birthday at the dropzone These are some of my skyfriends. Some new, some old. We have a thing going on Facebook called ‘Ed Threads’. A normal conversation back and forth turns into something out him. At Don’s party we got all his girls together for a picture.

  • my name on the title…my money in the gas tank…her Jeep.

    She is finally legal to drive. I couldn’t be more proud of her. She’s safe, except for that crazy pull out in front of the car thing and her dramatic hands when telling a story and forgetting to hold onto the wheel, but no…really…she’s a great driver. We went driving today to find a place…

  • choices…

    “Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” Rumi I have been asking for direction lately. Which direction do I take my life right now? Which do I listen to? Heart or head? My heart has made some…

  • Like we didn’t see THAT one comin?

    All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.  Sometimes we trade in a certain part of ourselves for another. A certain part of our lives for a new one. No one…

  • Some people look at clouds. Some people look for holes.

    People come into our lives for a reason…at a certain time. I can usually figure out why they are there within a few weeks. I often question why certain people move in and out of our lives. You think they will be there forever because the bond is so deep. Some people you think you…

Why I Started My Personal Blog

I started Random and Odd back in 2002 or so because it was all the rage and my mom and sister were perpetually online either playing games or finding recipes.
I decided that I wanted to be able to write what I was going through as a parent and keep them updated on what the girls were saying or doing. It started out just a way for me to vent, rant or laugh about life.
It turned into more when other people outside of my mom and sister started reading it and through the years it was just a place for Stuff Portrait Fridays, meeting other people blogging and making those people friends. It was a place to put down a photo I took that I was proud of and then it was a place to talk about the traveling I was doing. Now it’s just a dumping ground of bullshit that is swirling in my head.

I want to get back to writing, taking photos and traveling and doing a complete redo of R & 0 was needed to document.
Enjoy the minimalist look.
