  • Busy…so busy.

    Our drive home, originally uploaded by Random and Odd. Having Hurricane Kara home for the month is awesome, but I am following behind her and picking stuff up she keeps leaving out. I never realized it before. She’s the 19 year old version of me…that doesn’t pick shit up after she’s done. At least I…

  • I have three girls now!

    Untitled, originally uploaded by Random and Odd. Picked up Kara at the airport at 10pm on Monday. I have been SO good about not hogging her. She stayed the first night with me and I did so good to not cry, but when I woke up to her beautiful face cuddling with her “binkie” (she…

  • Just one aid station worker’s story from WS100

    Western States 100 Mile Endurance Run 2012, originally uploaded by Random and Odd. Six months ago I signed up to volunteer at The Western States 100 mile endurance run.

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.
