Conversation this week On The Ponderosa:
ME:  Lulu, did the Princess tell you we are going on vacation next month?
LULU:  No, she doesn’t tell me anything.  Where are you going?
This is a blatant exaggeration born of teenage angst.  When not physically attached at the hip these two BFF talk no fewer than 10 hours per week, not [...]

The King took The Royal Canines to the veterinarian office for their yearly check up after months of polite reminding, leading to eventual screaming “we live in the woods with rabid animals dear and I will not take your for rabies shots after they bite you.”  This responsibility is clearly outlined in that marital responsibilities contract I still [...]

The scales of justice just fell from their pedestal.  It will be a rare occurence that I climb on the political soap box.  My personal rants are normally limited to that of  parents gone stupid, tweens gone wild, husbands with contemporary home repair tips, and crazy idiocracy .  When the leader of the free world hands out a Get Out Of Jail [...]

One night a week, The Queen indulges in girls night out with her best friend.  Basically, this is a torrid affair of attempting to enjoy a quiet meal in a restaurant and catching up on gossip.  My idea of a good time does not include the following tale of parents gone stupid accompanied by an 8 year old child that [...]

The mind is an enigma.  As I go through life minding my own business, my brain has the temerity to produce, without encouragement or suggestion from me a song that I find on repeat for the remainder of the day.  Every. Five. Minutes.  Seriously, the hook from this song becomes wedged so deep in your psyche that [...]

This past weekend I attended a baby shower in our church fellowship hall, I had forgotten my camera and returned to the parking lot to retrieve it from the car.  Out of the corner of my eye I say a young girl, 12 years old push her mother in to the side of their family van and [...]

With a few minutes to go before Forensic Files aired, I switched to the Court TV channel and encountered the last few minutes of Hollywood Heat.  Following completion of a prison sentence, Jody “Babydol” Gibson (no I did not spell that wrong) has released a tell-all book detailing her life as madam of the California Dreamin prostitution [...]
