I’ve been told that, when it comes to dieting and cutting back on meals, my specimen collection works better than the best diet pills out there. Apparently there’s something about seeing critters preserved in jars (or paperweights) that makes folks loose their appetites. It doesn’t have that affect on me, but then again, I’ve always [...]

It’s nice to do repairs, maintenance and upkeep of your home yourself. There’s just something about completing a job, looking over your work proudly, and knowing that you did it all yourself. There is however one task I’m not that crazy about - painting houses. Give me spray paint and I’ll wow you with my [...]

It gets pretty hot around here during the summer. It’s a dry heat (usually) mind you and it’s nothing compared to Arizona, but it can still get pretty hot. For Denali, who is a fluffy long haired cat it can be a right pain for her. Her fur gets tangled easily as she climbs through [...]

Mother’s Day was a simple affair this year. Instead of a cake, I made my mom a Danish Creme Cheese Twist, a card that sadly made her cry, and some new cds and decor for her office. It was completely lacking in extravagance I’m afraid. No all-expense paid trips, road tripping in an rv, tickets [...]

The girls got a new edition to their wardrobe - and for the first time ever - they match!

Denali and Isis now both have a cute black t-shirt with two rhinestone stars on the back. As you can probably see, there’s no worry about mixing their shirts up either. I had to get Isis and [...]

It’s a very good thing that I had already planned to get up early today to do some much needed laundry, otherwise Denali would so be toast right now. Isis is the one who wakes me up whenever she wants something. Denali lets me be, or so I thought. Cat woke me up at 3 [...]

I saw a horrific and frightening sight earlier this evening. I was driving up to town muttering obscenities at the radio for only giving me stations filled with commercials about bankruptcy lawyers and debt consolidation (really, how is it that all stations can be on commercial at the same time? What are the odds?!) when [...]

Ah, tonight was just exhausting. I did good sales-wise at work, but I had to go through a lot of irate and obnoxious people to get them. I won a $5 time card bonus though and brought my sales total to 30 for the week thus far, so it was worth it.
It was the [...]

Despite this year being a tough one financially, Christmas turned out pretty good regardless. It was great spending time with my family, not to mention, having a day off from work. Pitty I have to go work tomorrow. Because I know people are curious, yes I did get quite a few wonderful gifts. [...]

I have been informed that Denali has not been getting her fair share of photo time here lately. Could it possibly be because Denali has taken to always turning away from the camera as she used to do when she was younger?
In any case, Denali has made her thoughts on her lack of “photo time” [...]
