• Alrighty then…

    Thanks for the links. The first one, with the pressed jewelery…COOLNESS.  I have been looking for a necklace that says, “Go ahead, just blame me for it.” and just couldn’t figure out where to find one. I visited all the other ones, and I am officially kicking the ass of the person who sent me…

  • Hook a sister up

    I know you’re out there. According to the creepy stat counter, you’re all STILL here. Just LURKING like the creepy next door neighbor that you tell your kids is really a vampire. I need new websites. Everyone give me a website you visit daily, or a online site you use for fun. Lurkers…you have to…

  • Kara got home from her snow trip today.  She reminded me of myself when I was going to church at her age.  I loved church camp.  I loved everything about it.  I’m grateful that she had the opportunity to be a part of something so special with her new friend, Kyla. It’s wonderful to know…

  • All Kinds of Random…

    Kara is in Tahoe this weekend with her friend, Kyla.  I don’t know what it is, whenever she leaves to go somewhere, I miss her all the way in my bones. I’m so in love with the orangutans on the Animal Planet show, “Orangutan Island”.  I want to move there and take care of them. …

  • Our Moment of Truth

    After WAY too much time watching all 14 of these stupid videos, I still couldn’t figure out if it was real or a hoax. It was all over MySpace so that should be my answer right there, but I am all about figuring out the truth. Because I had invested all that time into reading…

  • Can you hear me now?

    I made the HUGE mistake of taking the dogs to the park yesterday.  I factored in it was raining a little bit, but completely forgot about the mud. McLovin is going to be calling Doggy Protective Services on me for bathing him too much. When we first got him, Kara wasn’t happy about it. She…

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.
