Illegitimus Non Carborundum: Who Do You Think You Are?
http://hixson5.blogspot.com/2012/05/who-do-you-think-you-are.html
Thursday, May 10, 2012. Who Do You Think You Are? When Dad would get mad at us, invariably he would yell, "Who do you think you are? My usual reply was something witty like, "Uhh, Diane? This was never a satisfactory answer. I think he was looking for a more self-appraising assessment, but I wasn't the most introspective kid. I, for one, can't wait! Maybe we'll find a DNA match in the database- some long-lost cousin in Italy who would love to have us all out to his villa for a holiday. Or maybe not.

Illegitimus Non Carborundum: October 2011
http://hixson5.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 3, 2011. One Step at a TIme. I love my pedometer. It isn't very fancy, but it is by my side (literally) from morning to night. Counting up my steps throughout the day. I walk in place when I'm brushing my teeth or waiting for the microwave to ding. My dog is getting more walks than she ever knew she wanted. I've even been escaping from the office now and then to walk to the park. I've been using AskMeEvery. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Listen to Very Eclectic Tastes. Where You Can Find Us.

Illegitimus Non Carborundum: January 2011
http://hixson5.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 30, 2011. Oh it's not just because of Dad. Dad was the least drab person I know. He loved it when we dressed up, wore makeup, and looked "put together." One summer evening we all drove to the MUNY. In stretch limos, then stopped at Ted Drewe's. But I am now, and why not? Spring will be here soon, which always makes me happy. Today we drove through Provo Canyon and spent the afternoon in Park City, Utah at the Sundance. Monday, January 3, 2011. In Memorium - The Lady in Red, a Dad favorite.

Illegitimus Non Carborundum: July 2010
http://hixson5.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 29, 2010. I Need More Silver. Our grandparents were so consistent with the sweets they gave us that there are some things that I just can't pass up at the store. I suppose the cookie brands may have changed from Jim to me, and Dad doesn't remember Boppy ever giving him cookies. Being the last grandchild, it is quite possible that I was insanely spoiled. I feel in some strange way that Oreos pay tribute to our family, and for that I refuse to feel guilty. Is around the corner. I like storie...

Illegitimus Non Carborundum: November 2010
http://hixson5.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 24, 2010. My bird, Toots. For little Max, however, they made an exception. This week, we have a house-guest - a very friendly, quiet, mild-mannered hound named Bella - about 2 years old and somewhat interested in what's in the cage. Not aggressively interested, just curious. Is this permitted? Monday, November 22, 2010. Pretty impressive. At least, I'm impressed. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). We are 5 siblings, born in a 25-year span living in 4 states with 12 children between us. My bi...

Monday, January 3, 2011. In Memorium - The Lady in Red, a Dad favorite. Twas a cold winter's evening, the guests were all leaving. O'Malley was closing the bar,. When he turned and he said to the lady in red "Get out, you can't stay any more.". She shed a sad tear in her bucket of beer, as she thought of the cold niiiight ahead. When a gentleman handsome flew in through the transom. And these are the words that he saaaaid,. Herrrrrrrrrr motherrr neverrr told her, the things a young girl should know,.

Sunday, October 24, 2010. This is the true reason why many are against genetic engineering, being fearful that cats will one day rule the world. In fact, although lions and leopards are mentioned in the Bible, the cat is nowhere to be found in the Holy Writ. Silence only or a conspiracy of silence? Thursday, October 14, 2010.
