Random and Odd

ok. not good. probably bad.

  • I’ll keep him.

    During my first marriage I learned many things that I never thought would form me into the person I am today. Some of them are stupid things, but some of them are the core of who I am. Car maintenance was the number one thing. I was the horrible one in the relationship when it…

  • Last weekend was spent shooting pictures.  The first set of pictures were friends of Tabitha. The weather wasn’t going to work out and it looked as if we were going to have to cancel. As Saturday approached the weather cleared up and I made the call that the portraits were back on.  *Brenda sounded very…

  • Cleaning and Sleeping

    After the cleaning and organizing of the kitchen I was exhausted. Instead of being thrilled for having accomplished so much, I felt anxious that someone was going to mess it up. I went on patrol every hour on the hour and like a bullhorn would announce, “WHO LEFT THE PLATE ON THE TABLE!?” The next…

  • What’s Up Next?

    It may not look clean and organized to you, but to me…angels are singing.

  • Almost There.

    I’m getting closer to being finished with the kitchen. The sucky part is when I post the pictures, you won’t be able to smell the clean goodness of the floor and counters? I know. Go open up some cleaning stuff and take a whiff. That’s what my hair and fingers smell like. Oh, and while…

  • My Version of Eat, Pray and Love…and right now we are in the ‘eat part’

    On this path..which probably will lead me to a small place between purgatory and Wal-mart…I have found that searching for the scissors has made a whole new part of me burst forth.

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.
