• “Uh, what’s up with Random and Odd?”

    I’m still alive. I have just been battling lately and didn’t feel like spewing my anxiety ridden crap here. Imina (that is ‘I am in a’ for those of that don’t speak ‘Kristinese’) Imina spiral right now.  I have been trying to get stuff organized and in the process, stumbling across a lot of the…

  • Holy crap the medication is SO kickin’ in…

    I think Shaun has taken every medication we have in our cupboards.  He has been doped up on Benedryl, Motrin, TheraFlu, Zicam and we even pulled out the big boy and gave him Codine.   Now, i’m no light weight, but I would be OUT if I had ingested that much medication in the last…

  • Happy Almost 2007, everyone.  Shaun here, wrapping up the last SPF of 2007.  Kristine is doing much better, which signals an end to me hosting for awhile.  I’m getting sick and am heavily medicated, so if I begin to drift or spell strangely, you’ll know why.  I’m the worst sick person in the world, just…

  • Last SPF of 2006!!!! Hey everyone……Shaun here. Kristine has come out of the closet (insert joke here). She’s easing onto laptopping again, so I’m finishing up 2006 for her. Since everyone did well following instructions and complimenting my blog-hosting skillz (see, I used a ‘z’ to keep my street cred), I’ll keep this last SPF…

  • Best one so far…

    Merry Christmas Everyone!!! We hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday! **Updated Message** I got the best gift ever this year. I had my children, my step children, my husband, his ex-wife and my ex husband for a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner made by the awesome, hardworking people at Boston Market. On plastic plates…

  • moved…not locations, just in my heart. I am moved.

    I got a package from a friend today.  I opened the package and inside were many children’s books. I flipped through the pages and then read the label that came with all the books.  She mentioned that it was her favorite or this one inspired her and so going through them I looked at them…

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.
