Whew. Moving sucks big goat balls. I am tired, tired, and more tired. I am pissy and grouchy and altogether unpleasant to be around. My Our house is a mess.
How quickly gratitude can disappear. How quickly your gleeful attitude turns to irritation. Rudeness. Grumpy McGrumpyness.
Mere days is all it takes to move [...]
One of the things I did not know when we moved to New Mexico last year, was that they had skiing so close to where we moved. We were moving to the Permian Basin, see that second word, a basin, which is flat. The area used to be an ocean. Oceans do not have mountains [...]
Post Christmas Wrap Up’s seem to be all around the blog world. Mine…. I have again traveled across the state of Texas for the 12th time this month. Stayed in hotels. Decided to seek out a local Hotels Anonymous club. Ate the equivalent of my own body weight daily.
I got exactly what I wanted. In [...]
I have a place to live in Houston. A place that is not a hotel. A place where my cats won’t bite me every 2 minutes because they have explored every inch of the hotel room and there isn’t anything new to sniff or claw at.
I drove to New Mexico last week to pick [...]
I am seriously contemplating a new blog, a hotel review site. By my count, I have stayed at 13 different hotels since August. For 2 and a half months, I have lived in one. I have added 2 so far this weekend. Now, I am talking cheapo hotels. No-tell motels. We are not chilling at [...]
Just a short flight away from Houston, is a beautiful island. Near that island, the sweetest, most beautiful nieces a girl can have, live. I took a super quick jaunt there this weekend. And played and wiped up tears, and spit-up, but not butts, because I am not that nice of a sister. I [...]
Within 24 hours, I am going to be packing up half my clothes, all my toiletries, 300+ Ebay items, 3 cats, 2 litterboxes and traveling for 12 hours. Sympathy, please.
I am dreading this. So, so much.
I have to clean the house, empty the fridge, wash clothes, load the car, and stop crying.
I [...]
So, we just left the Grand Canyon.
Before you hit Sin City, you have to go over the Hoover Dam. And it is a sight. My appreciation for the Dam multiplied or at the very least doubled, due to the Transformers movie. Hey, I am just a silly girl, not a history/geology/architecture buff. I couldn’t really [...]
Last Friday morning, we woke up. We knew we were on vacation. We knew this was coming. We had talked about it for months. I asked you guys about Europe as we truly planned to go there. But then time got the best of us and Europe was scrapped. And another plan was never placed [...]
Alright, so we first went to Santa Fe, then to the Grand Canyon. After that we hit the Hoover Dam. And well, since we were headed straight for it, we hit stop number 4. And stayed there for 4 days.
I have been wondering what to do with this clue. Should I even make it a [...]
