Oh I love when things zip along.


It's not snow. 
We're not in a drought. 









  1. It's a great day for the USA! Congrats to SCOTUS for doing the right thing.

    1. Thank you. Only a decade behind you. One bigot tweeted his discontent by saying, ironically, "I guess I'm moving to Canada." Apparently not knowing same sex marriage has been legal there for quite some time.
      Funny how quite often people filled hate are so filled because of the GIANT GAPING HOLE left in their soul by not allowing intelligence inside.

  2. For a change, I am SO PROUD of our country! Really, so proud of SCOTUS. And now I can just laugh at Scalia instead of wanting to go at him with a baseball bat.

    1. YES. And our POTUS helped pick those judges, so there's that. Scalia, OMG. What a nut. No matter what he's done in his life he will forever be known as "Old Man Yells At Cloud" that meme is hilarious and so true. Sounds like it's time for him to retire.

  3. I can understand why you would be careful about your groups - watching other peoples children while parenting your own can be tough. You want to have enough energy left for your own at the end of the day, and during the day, you want it to be a good thing for everyone. I tried it for a few years when my oldest was a toddler, I found it extremely tiring and I had a couple of really good kids I was watching.

    1. YES. It IS extremely tiring. I'm 42 and they make me feel OLD by 5:00! It is nice sometimes to have other kids for my kids to play with, but yes, you want to find a good fit. Which seems to be hard these days!

    2. I could be wrong, but I am assuming you meant to link to the TToT? Just wondered because I was waiting for your link to pop up before commenting and I haven't seen it there yet.

    3. I haven't linked up yet. Laptop issues and timing. I do most things from my phone now and haven't yet tried posting a blog post or linking to something via phone. Does that even work??

    4. I don't know! I can handle doing some things from my phone, but I'm not savvy enough to do everything.

  4. I know I have good Facebook friends because I didn't have to block or unfollow a single one for saying something stupid or ignorant immediately following that decision. Like you said, it's all about focusing on the positive. Even in the small things.

  5. It was a wonderful day that day when SCOTUS made the ruling!
    I also agree with you regarding giving kids boundaries and rules! I know my two appreciate knowing that even though they may grumble about it sometimes! Yes, having kids and parents who are just not on the same page as you in terms of discipline is indeed annoying and it's better to mutually agree that it won't work out sooner rather than later!

    1. Kids really do need limits. My son was a very high-energy kid, my father said he wouldn't watch him b/c he couldn't handle him. Yet his dad's GRANDMOTHER, who was in her late 70's could handle him just fine. Because she gave him limits and held him to them. He was better for her than anyone, b/c she wouldn't take his crapola.
