Dig It!

“Life’s a garden.  Dig it.”   -Joe Dirt
Ok, I am embarrassed to admit it but I like the movie!  The other night I watched the movie Joe Dirt for about the 20th time.  It’s one of those movies you leave on in the background while you work or surf the net.  It truly has a cult […]

I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles four things: a rainy day, the elderly, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. -anonymous

How would you handle?  Here are my answers…I want your feedback.  What does this mean?

 Ok, it’s Sunday night and we were bored.  After clicking through the 300 TV channels we pay for and over 300 movies we own…nothing was on except football on NBC 17 (which my husband was lobbying for)!  So, I decided it felt like a Wizard of Oz night.  This movie is the […]
