Published on Tuesday, April 10, 2012 by Katherine During the April 2012 30-Day Photo Challenge, I had to post a picture of wheels.  Simple enough.  I posted the following: Funny thing though.  This simple picture led to a new post.  A post that I realized was NOT ALLOWED in the photo contest.  During the contest, we are restricted to only 250 words per picture.  My new wheel post?  435.  So here is the ...

Published on Thursday, April 5, 2012 by Katherine And here we are at day five of the photo challenge. I made it! Today's theme?  Power. During PE, I was always the last to be picked.  I was horrible in sports.  Not an ounce of physically fit talent in my body. Today, I work out at the gym three times a week.  In the “men’s section.”  And I’m strong. What do I know now that I didn’t know then?   ...

Published on Tuesday, April 3, 2012 by Katherine No, not the others in the challenge.  ME! I am participating in my first blog challenge EVAH.  A 30-day photo challenge, no less – and I don’t even have a camera!  Furthermore, this is day four.  How many days have I completed?  None.  Cause that’s just how I roll. But from this day on, it’s a photo a day.  And indeed, as the instructions pointed out,...

As of this writing, there are three lucky winners of the largest Mega Millions jackpot in history.  I can't wait to hear their stories! I am not a huge lottery player, but I will get a ticket once or twice a month.  This week I had one ticket for each child, one for me and entered a ten-dollar office lotto pool.  My 18-year-old won two dollar...

Published on Wednesday, March 21, 2012 by Katherine Do you know about the lawsuit against Apple for its well-marketed app “Siri?”  You’ve probably seen the commercials: "I gotta get a guitar." "How do I play a B Minor 9th?" "Call me Rock God." Apparently they are being sued by an individual who says the commercial is misleading. Now I don’t have an Iphone, but I do have to say this looks like a super c...

Published on Sunday, March 18, 2012 by Katherine Now, I will be the first to admit that I have bad taste.  Well, a taste for the tacky.  But this?   This is actually a little beyond my own questionable sense of fashion.  Before I took these pictures, I told the car, "Say Cheese!" And you know what?  I think she winked!...

Published on Thursday, March 8, 2012 by Katherine   It was initially supposed to be a four-dollar fix.  Or it would have been for anyone else in this world.  But this is me.  Remember… Shoot Me Now? This is how it went down: “Katherine, your left headlight is broken.” I go to the auto supply store during lunch.  I tell the gentleman my make and model. He provides me with a new headlight.�...
