I just got back from a few days in Louisville, KY, where I was staying for the American Medical Writers Association conference. The conference workshops I attended were helpful and informative, and I actually had some time to wander around the city. I had never been there before and I enjoyed it. The city has [...]

I loved these two guys!
Don’t they look like they are having a conversation?
This was part of a Waiting for Santa scene, the note actually says For Santa, although you can’t read it in the photo.

From the NC State Fair this weekend — where deep frying could be an official sport, I think
I think my arteries clogged and my blood pressure shot up just by taking these pictures and being near so much deep fried-ness.
Sunday Scribblings — My style
Posted in Sunday Scribblings, me, photos, silly on October 20, 2008 | 8 Comments »
So, this week, the topic over at Sunday Scribblings is My Style.
What is my style? I don’t know if I have just one that defines me, my style can change a lot depending on my mood, if I am feeling silly or sassy or professional or somewhere in the middle.
My style can be silly:
From junior [...]
Food for thought

Something I just started thinking about — photoshopping, photo editing, touching up.
I read about a bit of the furor recently over a Sarah Palin Newsweek cover, a very close-up shot of her face, and the uproar was that it was unkind and unflattering to her because it wasn’t retouched and showed some lines and light [...]

What was the last book you bought?
I believe the last book I bought is I Capture the Castle, which I like, but I haven’t gotten very far into it. I picked it up because J.K. Rowlings was a reviewer, and said it had one of the best [...]

Last night, I started making some fall/halloween cards, and I will probably make a couple more tonight.
Well, that’s nice, you say, but why are you blogging about it?
I have more cards than people I need to send to…so, I would like to send a card to YOU!
First three responders will get a card from me [...]
Still there…

snuggled in bed under the covers
A warm pup curled up near my feet
Birds outside chattering to each other
A few more minutes please
