Mamacita says:
Happy New Year to all of my Blogosphere friends.
We’ll be spending New Year’s Eve, as we have done for the past many, many years, with our best friends, playing euchre far into the night and talking about everything under the sun. It’s a mixed metaphor kind of evening: the very best kind.
I hope all [...]

. . . interrupting my post-Christmas blues, my wallowing in Love Actually, my longing for visits from family, and my dread of taking down all my holiday decorations, with the Twelve Rules of Christmas, just for you:

Mamacita says: Merry Christmas. Happy Hanukkah. Fruitful Kwanzaa. Happy Holidays. Peaceful December. Happy Solstice.
Please pick one, or two, and apply them to yourself and to your family.

Mamacita says: I was reading my dear online friend Judy’s blog tonight and stole this meme idea from her. Thank you, Judy. I haven’t done a meme for a while, mostly because I loathe them, but this one appealed to me so here goes: How I Named My Blog.
Back in early 2004, my friend Wes [...]

Mamacita says: part of this post is from another post that I deleted before I wrote down the date. I’m so tech savvy and organized.

Mamacita says: In a few days, I’ll be off to Blog Indiana – which you don’t have to be from Indiana to attend, why don’t all of you sign up, too?

Obi’s Sister has tagged me for a meme. It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these, and I will have to say that not only do I learn things about my friends that I honestly didn’t know before; I learn things about myself that I probably knew but had filed away somewhere and [...]
