Ramblings


Our September Book Pick was “This is Not a Test” by Courtney Summers. A most excellent read (I say, anyway) and I’m posting the polls here so we don’t clutter up our Facebook page, or ruin it for anyone who didn’t get a chance to read it. Some general questions for the group (answer in […]

Breaking Bad Theories

by Kristi on August 18, 2013 · 2 comments


*SPOILERS for BREAKING BAD* Don’t get pissy if you keep reading and have not watched the latest! I can’t get enough of reading Breaking Bad theories. The crazies who go back and view every single episode and pick out the fact that Walt is wearing the same exact jacket in the flash forwards as Jessie […]

#DriveSafe with OBD2 and Sprint

by Kristi on August 6, 2013


I had a delightful time at a beautiful dinner party last week hosted by Jessica Gottlieb and Sprint. The event was put on by EventUp which is an amazing site to find the next venue for a party or corporate meeting you want to hold a party at. I have a fun time dreaming about […]

Throwback Thursday: The Cousin Edition

by Kristi on August 1, 2013


I’m cleaning out all my picture frames and found this. It’s especially nostalgic as my baby cousins are all grown up! I guess it felt like such a big age gap when I was 10 and they were 3 and 5 but now that they are all getting married, having amazing jobs, and we get […]

Besties Being Mean

by Kristi on June 27, 2013


This is what happens when the besties get together. Most of us are at a restaurant waiting for Brooke to land at Oakland airport. She landed and asked us how long we would be…

#StandWithWendy

by Kristi on June 25, 2013


I adore Twitter for being on top of breaking news. While CNN is talking about the George Zimmerman trial. MSNBS is talking about something or other… Twitter is busy letting everyone know the live feed of Texas Senator Wendy Davis who is filibustering a Republic vote that affects abortion rights. Watching this in the last hour […]

New Law for Transgendered 1st Grader

by Kristi on June 24, 2013


This sums it up for me. I feel for any person who feels as if they are trapped in the wrong body. That said, I can’t help but be wary of slapping the transgender label on a child too soon. I’m not saying this is the case here, no one knows but the child and, […]

UFC Classes

by Kristi on June 4, 2013


We went to the local UFC joint to do a self-defense class for our Girl Scout Troop. It was fun and all the girls had a great time. The Moms did a beginner class in boxing and learned a few tricks. Sadly, they had a great intro price to sign up… and Sam really wanted […]

Hello Monday!

by Kristi on May 13, 2013


It’s a new week, someone just reminded me! I just read this quick roundup by Angry Julie and loved it. My pictures are on my phone, my phone is on my desk, I’m on my computer… The task of moving everything around is exhausting. 🙂 However… HELLO MONDAY! I feel like I’m whistling the Jeopardy tune for […]

Guns, Baseball Bats, and Break-ins

by Kristi on March 4, 2013 · 1 comment


So, after talking about our experience yesterday of being robbed, the husband has been busy today talking with insurance, alarm companies, neighbors, and running errands. After talking to several neighbors it just makes me cringe to know how many burglaries are so close to us!Our next door neighbor on one side was robbed three years […]

The kids are okay. (The kids are more than fine actually, they are busy watching the rest of their movie from the long drive, they don’t notice anything.) I have my wedding ring on. The house was still standing (I always envision driving up after being away and the house just a puddle of ash […]

Complain, Complain… and Upgrades!

by Kristi on January 20, 2013 · 3 comments


Funny. Everyone who knows me, knows I’m a complainer. I like to complain. I should really stop complaining so much but whatever. Anyway. I got the flu last week. I’m hardly EVER sick so it wasn’t that bad really. I usually recover from illness quickly, I’m kinda healthy. In some ways. However, I had to […]
