• Well that just sucks…

    Last night I didn’t sleep. In fact, I didn’t fall asleep until around 8 am and only slept for about 2 hours. While not sleeping I watched 5 episodes of “Cold Case” and came to the conclusion, BEST MUSIC ON A TV SHOW. ever. period. no really. On one of the episodes they played some…

  • Conversation going on in my room RIGHT NOW.

    Marina: When I start driving, I will drive you where ever you want! Because I am such a nice sister. Alyx: So when I say, “Marina, I want beef jerky, take me to the store, you’ll say yes!?” Marina: Yes Alyx, because I will be like, you’re my sister and I am a good sister…

  • As far as I can remember…

    When I was very little my mom and dad were given a book from a friend called, “Kinship with the Stars – A Photographic Celebration of Life” I somehow ended up with it in my room. I can only remember a few books from when I was a kid; a dinosaur book & sleeping beauty….

  • Habbo has taken over our children’s lives so we are now forced to play with the neighborhood kids.  Shaun can play with a cardboard plane for 3 hours with Jeremiah and his new friend.  It’s funny how much he’s just a big ol’ kid. I had a big post planned, but I have to go…

  • Yay! oh Yay!

    They are home. HOURS AND HOURS of blissful no-barking.  I was actually going to go leave a note on the door AGAIN asking them to PLEASE bring the dogs in at night if they were going to be gone any longer. I’ve left notes for the person taking care of the dogs, with my name…

  • The Places We Shall Go…

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.
