This Just In: April 2015
http://gnightgirl.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.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! Links to this post. Vintage Nig...

This Just In: February 2014
http://gnightgirl.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
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...

The First MAIL CALL!Supporting the Troops: September 2008
http://kathi-supportingthetroops.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
The First MAIL CALL! My original "Mail Call! Supporting the Troops" blog, transferred from AOL when they shut down their Journals in 2008. Tuesday, September 30, 2008. Good-Bye Little Blog AOL Journals Shutting Down. Well, I was saddened to read today that AOL Journals will be closing down on Oct.31,2008. Since I had a suspicion this might be coming? I had already started a Blogger blog, where I've been cross-posting. You can find me on Blogger at this link. Hope to see you there! Talks about a Priceless.

This Just In: I Always Did Like Valentine's Day
http://gnightgirl.blogspot.com/2014/09/i-always-did-like-valentine-day.html
Sunday, September 28, 2014. I Always Did Like Valentines Day. Last February 14, Clint called me at work and asked if I could cut out a little early to meet him at his parent's bank; he needed a witness to sign some trust papers. We were in the middle of a minor snow storm, and leaving- and getting home- early sounded good to me anyway. As I approached the door, Clint called me over to his truck. "Hey! Come over here and give me a kiss! Remember what happened here 8 years ago? Clint and I were married las...

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&...
