that other site I write at

December 13, 2010

I recently started writing again at a site I love. Funny. Light heated. Sassy. Things I wasn’t sure I could be every day. I just told my story. It wasn’t always funny. It took a special twist to see the light-hearted side of it. Sassy. Well, I’ll be really honest that sassy has always been [...]

the person i used to be isn’t the person i am today

June 13, 2010

Months have gone by with me feeling shaky and unsure.   Wondering how I fit in, where I fit in, and DID I fit in anymore? Before I had the stroke I knew my place in the scheme of things.  I felt assured that if I worked hard, I would be rewarded.  So, I worked hard! [...]

I could have been napping

November 9, 2009

So, I wrote this whole post about the horrors Peter put me through this weekend. Seriously.  Home Depot…rakes…sweat…it was like the trifecta of hell. But, some great things came out of it. And by “great things”, I mean other than the spectacular AWESOME that is an arm cramp.  Cause, if you haven’t had one? Try [...]

If we’d had one more day there probably would’ve been a boar’s head on a stick somewhere

November 3, 2009

Corporations would call it a “Team Building”. At Aiming Low, we call it “Times when you’d better wear a diaper cause chances are good you might pee a little”. (I don’t even watch The Office and this is funny…probably because I love Ali Martell…no, I REALLY love Ali Martell) I mean, come on, there’s not [...]

Traveling is fun! Coming home to puke is NOT.

November 2, 2009

In case you were wondering if I was planning to leave Ralph Macchio up forever…know that I considered it….but decided that it was possible that it wasn’t as amusing for others as it is for me. Which, if I’m wrong, just let me know so I can post my 450-photo montage of Ralph from the [...]

As if you have better things to do!

October 15, 2009

Parties used to be fun because all it took was a keg, a few bags of chips and the right people to have a good time. The beer may be better quality and we may have traded in the chips for real food, but it’s still about having the right people to have a good [...]

Did you know golf cart paths are really quite wide?

October 9, 2009

Thelma and Louise. Smokey and the Bandit. Easy Rider. Great examples of the roadtrip movie. I have one too! Starring Heather from the Spohrs Are Multiplying, Angie from A Whole Lot of Nothing and Janet from IzzyMom…Aiming Low at it’s finest. There aren’t any hallucinogenic drugs.  We didn’t get chased by cops.  Nope.  We failed [...]

Rambling is an art, right?

September 21, 2009

Back in the day I used to blog on what could be considered a semi-regular basis. It’s not that I don’t have things to tell you, it’s that I am WICKED loaded down with stuff I have to do. Like? Figure out why my dryer suddenly decided to stop heating up. Convince my kittehs to [...]

The evolution of moving furniture

August 12, 2009

There is an armoire in my living room. The armoire in my living room is IN my living room because there is no room in my bedroom. There is a bookshelf (AKA “Dumping Grounds of the Gods”) that has to move from my bedroom to the living room. The bookshelf is six feet wide. So, [...]

Balancing the teeter-totter of my life

August 5, 2009

I have taken on a lot these past weeks. I guess I had it in my head that after the move things would settle down and I would find my equalibrium.  Oh yeah. I would find it, I would hold it close, I would OWN it. The little jerk is still hiding. Or maybe I [...]

Thoughts from the airport

July 26, 2009

*SIGH*  I wrote this the morning I left for BlogHer, but apparently the wi-fi connection was so lousy in the hotel, it never actually posted. Tech hotel FAIL! So better late than never, right? I’m writing this from the Atlanta airport…drinking a cup of mediocre coffee, a man who needs to rethink his commitment to [...]

And here we are

July 19, 2009

Soooo, this is it. The new digs. Infinitely less packing and tape than changing residences, but filled with it’s own set of worries and angst. Will anyone still read? Am I screwing myself up by quitting my already established blog for this shiny newness? Does this blog make my butt look big? ANGST, I tell [...]
