  • Oh the restraint…

    Driving Alyx to her soccer game this morning we encountered many people on the corners with a YES ON 8 signs. The kids, not me, freaked out. They can’t stand the fact that even though they are doing everything right, being politically correct and doing what it takes to change…people are still ….being people. I…

  • Now I am MORE pissed than I was before!

    I was contacted by someone from guidespot.com about the post I wrote and she made sure it would be handled, that MY picture would be taken down.  No worries there because I blocked all my family pictures, including the ones of me and Shaun. Which sucks, because I enjoyed letting you all watch my children…

  • If I wasn’t voting before, I am now…

    And I was voting, so don’t freak out. Dan’s out of town this weekend for his birthday so I had to take the little one’s to karate.  On the way home, out of no where, got into this heated conversation about Prop 8.  The girls each had their point of view and each expressed their…

  • New Flickr..

  • You’re totally not going to believe this!

    I don’t want to jinx it by saying it…but i’m going to because you all need good news…well, from me, because I’ve been Debbie Downer lately. *crossing fingers that it doesn’t jinx*  I kinda feel better!

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.
