    On occasion, ‘Cita and I will have a mini-melt down and need to get the hell out of the house away from the children. Only on occasions though. This doesn’t happen like 2 times a week. I swear. No really. Usually we just lock the kids in the closet and toss in a package of…

    “I don’t know how to get it back to good.” Matchbox Twenty Someone said, “UPDATE” and it’s not until I get an email do I actually remember that I haven’t updated in a few days. I went to see the doctor and we are a ‘weening’ me off the Celexa. The sleeping pattern is so…

    The last few days have been “strange”.  Thanks to many of you, I had a ‘heads up’ on what the withdrawal symptoms would be like. So far, mine haven’t been so bad.  I feel a little bit sick to my stomach lately. I’m FINALLY able to feel ‘hunger’ again (on Celexa I had a very…

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.
