• Comment Section Wish List

    Comment Section Wish List… Body: Okay, here’s the deal. The person above you in the comment section makes a wish (”I wish I had a banana!”), and then the person below grants your wish, and then wishes something else, but here’s the fun part: Your wish is messed up! Example: NoDramas—I wish I had a…

  • word ta ya mutha.

    All morning officially sucked.  It’s official. I called the office of Suck McSucky and gave them my information on my morning and they certified it as ‘sucked’.  It was ‘royally’ sucky, but it sucked enough to get a certificate and a reason to blog about it. My van, Bertie, has been making a funny noise…

  • Your SPF assignment

    I was inspired by a reader from last week when she posted her ‘luggage’ that had old letters from friends.  Please forgive me for not remember which reader it was. If it was you, raise your hand! I also checked out William’s site today. He has pictures of his adorable son’s modeling the shirts that…

  • And The Itsy Bitsy Spider went up the Spout Again!

    I’ve done really stupid things in life when it comes to being a parent. They go in this order: 1. When Kara was about 3 or 4 she came into the bedroom while I was painting and asked me if she ‘could put the thing in thing’.  I wasn’t paying attention because I was covered…

  • I never meant 2 cause u any sorrow

    It’s 1:04 am (Which is really 12:04 in my brain) and I can’t sleep. I’m not a big ‘movie watcher’.  I like stuff like CSI and Forensic Files.  When I was kid though, movies were the shit.  I grew up in a town where we had 3 television stations. PBS. ABC and if the weather…

  • white hair and big glasses

    We like to spend a few hours with Shaun’s parents at least once a month. Today they brought us to lunch along with Grandma. At some point during lunch, a woman and her children came in and one was screaming quite loudly. Grandma looked over at Shaun’s dad and without fear of CPS popping out…

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.
