I touch my face….a lot!
It’s not until you’re told to not do something that you realize how much you actually do it. I would say 30 seconds of every minute I am touching my face. I rest my head in my hands a lot. Mostly when I am talking politics with my boss, but still. No one is taking…

Migration Complete
The Rona is making everything quiet. Apparently I am an ‘Essential worker’ Never thought in a million years the government would classify me as ‘essential’, but here we are. It’s taken 2 plus weeks to get my website back up and running. Customer service was a nightmare and 3 different people did the equivalent of…

Those Quiet Moments.
I woke up this morning at 4:30 am to a very fluffy and very cuddly puppy crashed out on my neck. I moved him to my side and his little puppy eyes looked up at me, he yawned and I swear to god he smiled at me. “Oh you are so cute!” I whispered, but…

The battle of updating and moving R&O to the updated site has been frustrating so I decided to just take a break from thinking about it and actually just write something. If it doesn’t get transfered, oh well. I have a ton of Ireland Trip 2 updates that I will just hold on to until…

The first day we got to Kylemore we booked a tour to visit Renvyle and do a Famine Tour. We met up with our guide and drove around Renvyle. I wanted to do this tour because I had researched a lot about the potato famine and the devastating loss the Irish had to endure. I…

“A pint at the Pass”

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.
