• not quite right…

    Kathy and I were talking about television and my lack of watching it.  I told her I watch Headline News and Tivo all the Forensic crap I can find.  She ranted about the commercials on television at her blog and I had to laugh at her…I mean, come on, freaking out about poor John Mellencamp…

  • A letter from the children,

    Hello Internet, I’m sad to inform you that my mother’s brain exploded today.  We saw it coming on yesterday when all five of us were sick.  Some of us coughing and sneezing. Some of us had sore throats.  A couple were barfing. After her third trip to the store to pick up another bag of…

  • SPF: For Jenelle

    I have lost my mind. No really, I lost it about 2 days ago and I can’t find it. I checked between the couch cushions and everything and it’s NO WHERE TO BE FOUND. I checked the medication I am on and it said…it said…yeah, I can’t remember, but it might have something to do…

  • Immaculate Parallel Parking

    It would take a miracle for me to be able to parallel park. I would rather eat sour cream than even attempt to parallel park. Back when I had my drivers test, they didn’t require you to do it.  Probably because I lived in a town with 1 stop sign and not a light to…

  • NO! The dog is NOT allowed on the carpet, but she likes to cross the line to see how much she can get away with. YES! She’s allowed to longinly into the living room, but not go on the carpet. Maybe…  I know, I know…I should stick to one or other, but how can you…

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.
