To beat the Texas heat we went to Krause Springs last week. It’s about 45 minutes west of Austin and is an old fashioned swimmin’ hole. Complete with a rope swing: It is, quite literally, a hole. It’s been carved out of limestone, thus the “beach” looks like this (I spent the entire time telling […]
) Do you guys remember this skit on Sesame Street? I seriously remember this one. You don’t want to end up like Luis, do you? Crawling across a barren soundstage in search of water? Of course you don’t. In case you didn’t already know this, water is THE most important item in your food storage. […]

I know you’re expecting me to tell you about that mascara or lipstick that you simply must have. Here’s the absolute most important thing you need: Sunscreen Yep. Every single day. Winter, summer, even if you live in Oregon and the sun hasn’t come out in days. If you can see without a flashlight, your […]
Please welcome the newest residents chez W: These are Finn’s new mini-crabs (A.K.A. Fiddler Crabs). They are a lot more interesting and easier to take care of than those lame-o hermit crabs that are popular. They like to scurry around and quarrel with each other (you could call them “crabby”, I suppose. Ba-dum-bum!) Finn, despite […]
My computer has been freaking out lately. No, “freaking out” is incorrect. It’s more like my computer has been having seizures. It doesn’t like the internet most of the time. But then sometimes, it will let me get on the internet for a day or two. But then for five days it won’t. Mister, with […]
I haven’t done much with Makeup Monday in a while because I really haven’t used anything lately that’s rocked my world. A couple of months ago I went up to Dallas for a conference and as I packed to leave, my kids came in and out of my room a jillion times and completely distracted […]
I don’t have much to say today so I’m just going to leave you a picture of this pretty pink house. It’s near my friend Lisa’s ranch. Every time I drive by it I think how much I love Second Empire-style houses. And then I think I might like to have a pink house one […]
Tomorrow is Fast Sunday for Mormons. When I say “fast” I don’t mean the opposite of slow; I mean not eating or drinking. This is something that all Mormons around the world do on the first Sunday of every month. We go hungry. And thirsty. On purpose. We then take the money that we would […]
There is one sure way to get a cold wherein your nose runs like a waterfall and you are forced to sleep with bits of tissue stuck in your nostrils. And then your lips get bone dry because you’ve been mouth-breathing for two days. Let’s not forget the painful-skin-and-bone fever either. The way to get […]
