• I am.

    I am., originally uploaded by Suddenly Single. Every day there is one more thing that reminds me that I need to do just this. Today is just another ‘every day’. I keep making the steps to do just this, and then I make the foolish mistake of taking 19 steps backward. Today. Today is the…

  • Home for the Holidays.

    Kara had a rerun of this show on and the main character said, “We make boundaries and we find out that they don’t keep people out, they keep us boxed in.” I think the lesson I have forgotten that I held so dear to me is that this life of ours, it’s short.  In the…

  • Tomorrow is Tabitha’s birthday. I keep wanting to write something really nice for her,  but I was rereading some of the post with her in it and I think I have said it all. When I write my book, her chapter will be called.  “I hated her. She sucked. We became friends. I love her.”…

  • I love this sport!

    I have never seen an open canopy base jump.   This one was awesome!! JESTER FIGHTS THE LAW…and the LAW WINS!

  • You want more? I’ll make it….

    I think it’s about forgiveness…., originally uploaded by Suddenly Single. Oh how I wish I could say I was a Holiday type of person. I think since the Incredible Hulk skates mix up when I was child that I don’t have it in me anymore. I got an invite to bail out on Christmas morning…

  • How much do I hate the doctors?

    How much do I hate the doctors?, originally uploaded by Suddenly Single. I have to laugh when they take my blood pressure.

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.
