And now, because I thought of a bunch more things I like after my post the other day, here are some more things I like:
What about you? Share some things you like below!

It’s another list today. Why? Well, because I’ve been reading Things We Like I think it’s pretty cool. Also? I’m in the midst of revising not one, but two WIPs, and my brain is a little fried. Also also? Life is crazy right now, and a list of things I like seems like something I can manage.
Short, sweet, and to the point. At least that’s the theory.
So, without further ado, here are some things I like:
How about you? What things do you like?

It’s another Monday, and since I’m actually having a decent hair day, I thought I’d share:
All the cool kids are using number two pencils to hold their hair back. At least they used to, anyway.
This hair accessory decision has been brought to you by Buffy Summers. Because I’m reliving my youth through hair accessories. 🙂

Oh, good Lord, am I ever tired. I blame the stupid cold I’ve been fighting for a week in combination with four days of holiday merrymaking, followed by a return to work this morning (although really, work feels like a vacation compared to the thought of staying home with two energetic toddlers the way I feel right now). This unending crud has me feeling all sorts of fuzzy, impairing my ability to write but not dulling my desire.
Talk about frustration.
On the bright side, it’s snowing on my blog again. 😀
Anyway, with all that in mind (and an apparently busy week ahead of me), I don’t know how often I’ll be posting over the next couple of weeks. I’ll try and pop in every couple of days, but right now, I think I need to focus on getting better and getting ready for Christmas. I hope to see you all again soon! 😀

Sometimes it’s hard to find things in life to be grateful for. Not everything always goes the way we would like. Certainly I’ve had times like that in my own life; I’ve even written about them (here, there, and everywhere else). Writing sometimes helps me keep things in perspective.
With that in mind, today’s post (that should have gone up yesterday and didn’t for reasons that I’ll mention in a minute) is about the little things, the things that can – and do – make life worth living.
One of my friends did a fun little quiz about one’s internal nationality. I thought it sounded like fun, so I tried my hand at it, and this is what I got:
Apparently, I identify with Turkey. Who knew?
Next, there was a link to a quiz about what part of Russia you would live in. A woman in my childhood church used to travel to Russia quite a lot back in the late ’80s and early ’90s, and when she came back, she would give talks on her travels. She sparked my interest in this country (and a variety of other things, too), so I thought, why not? And this was my result:
I’d live in Kaluga Oblast!
Wanna take these quizzes yourself? You can do so here and here. Have fun! 🙂

Hi, everybody! Thank you all for stopping by. I know it’s been a bit quiet here lately and unfortunately, I think that trend may continue for a while longer. Between the upcoming holiday, my impending camping trips, the new job, recovering from Saturday’s successful garage sale, and something else that I’m not quite ready to discuss in detail (though I did vaguely mention it on Twitter yesterday), I’ve got a lot on my plate at the moment and something’s gotta give. Sadly, I think my writing is it.
So, I’ll try to pop in here as often as I can. I’ll try to do the same for Facebook, even though I know my presence there lately probably isn’t what it ought to be. And Twitter? I’m still searching for a mobile app to replace my beloved Tweetdeck. If anyone has any suggestions for apps they love, I’m all ears (though for the record, I’ve tried HootSuite and I just don’t like it as well). Let me know in the comments! Maybe then I’ll at least be able to keep up there.
Until next time, folks, have a happy Fourth and stay safe.

Last night I saw a Buzzfeed post on Facebook about the Backstreet Boys doing a Harlem Shake video. I missed out on that particular sensation, but I still love the Backstreet Boys, so I had to see this one. I still don’t get the whole Harlem Shake thing, but whatever. This made my night:
Also this:
If you don’t know why, then you need to go and watch the video for “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)”. It’s terrible and cheesy and I can’t believe it’s the sort of thing I adored as a teenager, but there you have it. High school flashbacks for the WIN! 😀

I’m too tired to come up with much in the way of a post tonight, so I think I’ll just leave you with these pretty pictures instead. Seymour surprised me with a visit this morning and gave me some pretty lilies before taking me out to lunch. Then for supper tonight, the kids and I tried our hand at making homemade donuts using Pillsbury biscuits and a deep fryer. They turned out pretty well, but the kids were wired for the rest of the night.
Now if only the sugar had had the same effect on me… 😀

I saw this on Title to Come the other day and laughed hysterically because Monty Python is hilarious and The Holy Grail is one of my favorite movies. Also? I’m pretty sure it fits me.

Suddenly they all died. The end.
