Let's start some ripples

Sometimes I like to go back through my blog and read my old entries.  I'm always curious to see which ones garnered the most attention from my readers.  This blog has sort of become a window into my life.  A place where I can share my thoughts, ideas and daily happenings.  And of course, it has become a place where I can document and have fun with every silly and ridiculous thing that seems to happen to me on a regular basis!   I'm sure it is no surprise to anyone that my "funny" blogs seem to get the most attention.  Everyone loves to laugh.  Everyone NEEDS to laugh.  And it is always my mission to bring happiness to those around me....no matter what is going on in my life, or with the rest of the world. After the horrific events that took place in Ottawa last Wednesday, I so desperately wanted to write about something funny today.  Replace some sadness with a bit of laughter and joy.  But for some reason, I couldn't.  Every time I start typing a joke

Knock, knock, knockin'.......

So I ended my last entry  with a question to my readers:   Is it possible for a man to have a platonic friendship with a woman if he is already in a relationship?  I posed this question in an effort to get some advice on a neighbor who is in a long-distance relationship but seems to be sending me some mixed signals on the side. The response, from both women and men, was quite interesting.   Most of you think that it is impossible for a man, who is in a relationship, to have a female platonic friend on the side.  Then there's the few who believe that it is absolutely possible for a man to have a female friend.  And then there's the rest of you, who think that my neighbor is confused.....and that possibly me flirting with him will give me the answers that I am looking for. It amazed me that so many of my friends had such strong, and differing opinions about the same topic.   But WHY did this intrigue me so much? Everyone is different right?  Everyone has their o

Drinks... at the basement bar.

I tried to think of a clever way to start this blog entry........but we don't have time.  I have a ton of questions that need answering, so we have to get started right away. Remember my post about my cute neighbor?  The one with the 2 little girls? The one who my other neighbors think is interested in me, but I'm pretty sure he has a girlfriend....remember that guy??  If you don't, then you have to read that entry first.    Please read it quickly though.  Remember....we don't have time! (By the way -you should have ALL of my entries memorized but I don't even have time to reprimand you for this.  You're lucky.) Click on: Fuzzy was he? Ok!  You're all caught up now?  Good. So, my cute neighbor came over AGAIN to ask if our girls wanted to have a play date.   Seeing as how it was a rainy day and I was running out of crafts to do and movies to watch, I decided that a play date was a good idea.  He suggested his place because he just finished

8am this morning "Mommy?" "Yes angel?  I'm in Lola's room". Molly stumbled in with messy hair and squinted eyes. "Mommy?  Tan you tate off my diapew?" "Of course"  I looked at her very rounded bum and laughed.  "Wow!  It's full!" Molly chuckled. "Yeah.  I was dweaming and dweaming and peeing awww night long" I laughed. "You were dreaming?  What did you dream of?" "I dunno.  I cannot wemembah."   I pulled the stickers off Molly's 10 pound diaper and it slammed down to the floor in a giant thud.  Molly ran away bare-bummed and happy as can be. The discussion of dreaming with my 3-year old already had my head spinning.  I just LOVED trying to recall my dreams.  Especially if they were good ones. I slept 9 hours last night (great success!), and even though I woke up often to flip and readjust my hands under my pillow, I still managed to have some very long and crazy dreams.
