Tuesday, February 04, 2014. Soapbox: More Troll Updates. Each of the victims was issued a "No Contact Order of Protection." One in our group is pushing for that same protection for his wife and daughters, and having a difficult time getting it. Benjamin Beaupre met in a courtroom today with our troll and his attorney. While this part isn't really about me personally, I am tied to it, and so, very interested in the outcome. Tomato-tomahto, you might say,. Moving on with my analogy, let's say you wake up o...

This Just In: Vintage Nightstands and Creative Property
http://gnightgirl.blogspot.com/2015/04/vintage-nightstands-and-creative.html
Sunday, April 05, 2015. Vintage Nightstands and Creative Property. After years of searching for a set of vintage nightstands, Clint and I hit the road last weekend to Louisville, KY, to buy a pair he found on Craigslist. Yes, we did drive 4 hours to Louisville, because there were 2, count 'em, 2, matching,. Vintage nightstands, in beautiful shape. We have been on the lookout for these for at least 5 years—vintage nightstands seem to come in 1s, and not 2s. Somewhere in Indiana, something did. On the spot...

This Just In: Tough Day
http://gnightgirl.blogspot.com/2014/08/tough-day.html
Wednesday, August 27, 2014. I recently made an interesting personal observation: I don't cry much these days. I compare to 5 years ago, when my sister was dying of cancer, my mother was losing her mind with Alzheimer's, but just coherent enough for Teri's illness to be new and shocking to her every day, and my son was preparing to go to Iraq. However. 5 years! She's been on my mind, with this "landmark" anniversary. I can hardly believe it. It hit me in the gut. I added Clint as my Emergency Contact&...

Wednesday, October 01, 2014. Honeymoon Notes: Lighthouses, Phobias, and Tennis Shoes. Clint and I are honeymooning in Nag's Head, North Carolina. We're balancing our time with a bit of sightseeing each day, and a lot of crashing on the beach, which happens to be just below our balcony. I sent Clint off alone to climb these stairs. Photo credit: Clint Weidert). To the top of Bodie's Lighthouse:. And promised that I would take this photo:. When we arrived, I noted this sign in the lawn in front of our car:.

This Just In: Mama's Secret Recipes—Yours for the Taking
http://gnightgirl.blogspot.com/2014/11/mama-secret-recipes-yours-for-taking.html
Thursday, November 06, 2014. Mamas Secret Recipes—Yours for the Taking. Wandering around the grocery store for a dinner option the other night, I contemplated my pantry, versus my mother's, when we were growing up. My mother was an enigma in the kitchen: kind of a terrible cook, yet an adventurous one. Muy Ooo la la! On the other hand, she was using cilantro in this berg for years before anyone had ever heard of it. She dragged us into the only Asian store in town, and bought cilantro, and. Tonight, howe...

This Just In: April 2014
http://gnightgirl.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 16, 2014. After noting, last week, that I haven't gotten a cold this winter, when I have been surrounded by folks with colds and flu, of course I was hit hard yesterday. My throat hurt so much I swear I could feel strep creeping across the back of it like lava. Blessed to have sick days, I took off yesterday afternoon, and stayed in bed most of the next 24 hours- save a quick stint to do Mom's taxes- nothing like putting things off until the last minute. Irritating for one reason: Everyo...

This Just In: Seaweeditee
http://gnightgirl.blogspot.com/2014/07/seaweeditee.html
Wednesday, July 23, 2014. We are vacationing in Destin, Florida, with a couple dozen of our best friends. Sounds like it would be hectic, but it's not. We're all here and we all do our own thing, and we bump into this family or that at the beach or the pool, but everyone pretty much does their own thing. It's also manatee season. One may come up and bump you while you're swimming, but don't worry about it. They're just big dumb cows. They're actually nicknamed "sea cows.". That would be AWESOME! Realized...

This Just In: To Make or Not to Make
http://gnightgirl.blogspot.com/2015/04/to-make-or-not-to-make.html
Monday, April 20, 2015. To Make or Not to Make. I've noticed, lately, a series of "Why You Should Make Your Bed" articles and speeches, alleging that bed-making is a simple habit that will increase daily productivity. The claim is that it's the first task—and thus, the first accomplishment—of the day, that will set off a chain reaction of tasks through the rest of the day. Who makes this stuff up? Why does making my bed have to be my first accomplishment? Putting on a bra! Weird it honestly feels like my...
