Random and Odd

ok. not good. probably bad.

  • Behind Closed Doors…

    I keep saying, “I have so much going on and when it calms down I can write about it.”  I haven’t though and when I finally get through something I want to forget it even happened because the pain of it is too much to put to words. Usually I can find something positive that…

  • Sail on, down the line about half mile or so…

    Thank UPPERCASE GOD for Ipods and Mp3 players. I took all the girls to Redding this weekend and instead of fighting over what radio station to listen to, we all had on our earphones.   Yes, I did too…and yes, I know; against the law.  3 hours in a car with 2 teenage girls and 2…

  • SPF- Buttons

    Today’s SPF entry, a button picked up while shopping last weekend.

  • The Crash Test Dummy speaks

    I just wrote a post and then I deleted it. I’m going to give you some of the best advice that was ever given to me during my divorce; “You know you know. He knows what he knows.  That’s even ground.  If you tell him what you know, he knows what HE knows and what…

  • She said, WHAT?

    My driving nemesis didn’t show up at school today to drive up my blood pressure. So, to entertain you: “Konversations with Kristine” Me: “Hey Kath…where’s mom? I want her to see the picture on Flickr of Shea making the baby blanket.” Kath: “She’s in her room. Hold on. She’s watching some Tommy Lee movie.” Me:…

  • Taking the divorce in stride…

    I was never a big fan of K-Fed. And then I saw the commercial he made:  Click Here. I think I have a little crush on him now. It takes a big set of Kiwis to poke fun at yourself on a commercial that is going to air during the Superbowl!

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.
