Random and Odd

ok. not good. probably bad.

  • I love the news!!

    My mornings this year are different than they have been in the past. I have Jes in the mornings so that means no more headline news or CNN. I’m back to watching cartoons and t.v. shows that make me want turn and bite her as she giggles as if THIS show is the best thing…

  • spf this week and an update on this hair.

    Tyler’s birthday is Sept. 12th. He will be turning 16.   We decided that THIS year on 9-11 we are going to have his birthday party and celebrate.  9-11 has always shadowed his birthday, but this year…it won’t. This week SPF is all about your world. You’ve shown me your homes, your cars, your front doors,…

  • a message from the red-headed momma…

    The news has been focused on ‘Crikey!’s death and it’s sad and I almost cried because I liked him. He was real, honest and passionate about what he did. I thought he was so over the top and it was all a show until I started seeing the 700 interviews he did with everyone and…

  • it says, “Don’t worry if you don’t get desired color result”

    Shaun and I shot a birthday party for an 80 year old man this weekend. I hope when I am his age I am surrounded by the wonderfully colorful people he has in his life. As I was getting ready I decided that I should straighten my hair and that is when I noticed the…

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.
