    They felt sorry for my half frozen bag of baby lima beans I was using, originally uploaded by Suddenly Single. Okay, Okay, Okay. I get it. I need to heal it before I can push it any further. Last night at the gym I could feel that I shouldn’t be running. I switched up the…

    Alyx turned 14 today.  Four.TEEN. Let me go back to yesterday when I was writing Kara’s half page yearbook dedication.  I started with, “I should have known what kind of woman you would become when you were just a baby…stubborn and strong willed.” Looking back at Alyx at just an infant and seeing her now,…

  • ya’ll waiting, I know…

    It will be two years since the marriage ended (in April) and 4 months of being single.  If I get one more email telling me to spill it when it comes to the dating scene, i’m going to close down this blog and you’ll be forced to read about my escapades on Facebook. Yes, I…

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.
