Are you there God? It’s me, Kerry

Almost every morning I check email, look at Facebook, and read news from everywhere while the kids are having breakfast and I’m having my two cups of coffee.  I’m  news junkie, have been since I was in middle school.  I’m a geek, I know.  I’m a big documentary fan, love PBS Fontline, and have a [...]

Tunes you need Tuesday, kinda late, but hey…

Ok, so the comment from this morning made me not want to write anything else today, but hey, it’s Tunes you need Tuesday.  Here’s one essential album any REM fan needs: Dead Letter Office.

Tunes you need Tuesday & stuff

So, y’all know I’m big on Counting Crows, so of course I read Down the Rabbit Hole, Adam Duritz’s online magazine for fun and to check out bands he recommends.  A while back he wrote about The Negro Problem, a band with a politically incorrect name and great music.  Later they changed their name to [...]

Feelings, nothing more than feelings

I’m cranky for no good reason and thought I’d share some of my favorite things in hopes it might turn my mood around.
When we lived in Ft. McMurray, Canada I went to the best salon ever — Spoiled Rotten — and the owner carried these wonderful magnets by Anne Taintor and I had to buy [...]
