Jezebel makes some valid points here.
However, I just don’t get the left’s insistence on finding us a leader. A leader will emerge. It would be nice if someone came through the Tea Party ranks and could make that a...
I know I’ve been ranting and raving over Fuller’s reading lately, but I have to say, I’m also enjoying reading to Fuller.
One of our lessons is read aloud, a time in the day where I read aloud to Fuller...

In Kindergarten, we are studying the five senses. Today we talked about sight, and played a version of "I Spy," then colored a giant eye. All around the eye I asked the students to draw pictures of things they...
Chick-fil-a was one of the Type A Mom sponsors. They gave us a quick “grab and go” lunch on Saturday, making it possible for me to finish packing the car between rain showers. I have to say, one of the...
Yesterday, I got the call that I’ve been dreading for a while. My mom called to tell me that our beloved border collie, Coco, was at the vet’s office. He had not metabolized some medication and was dehydrated. We found...

I’ll go ahead & out myself as a graduate of the high school mixed up in this teapot tempest. My memories of the place are pretty mixed… some fond ones, some I’d sooner forget. Thanks to everyone who helped make...
I just had an epiphany. Suddenly, I care less about local, state, national, and international politics than I have since before the 2000 election. Lot’s of reasons why, but I don’t even care enough to explain them all!. ...
Big Weekend in Chattown. I’ll be working today until late, and most of the day tomorrow, but I’m going to try to get out to Three Sisters. Especially hope to catch Uncle Earl. Maybe I’ll see you there....
