I don’t know about all of you, but I’ve already been caught off guard by news reports and footage and all sorts of other information leading up to the Tenth Anniversary. If you’re looking for local September 11th observances, The Times Union has a listing here. If you prefer to stay home, here’s a New … [Read more…]
Did you guys see that there’s a New York Times article about the US Water Ski Show Team that performs in Scotia? So cool for them, and a nice article, too! Plus, there’s a slideshow on the Times site as well. All Over Albany threw in an interview along with a link–read it here. People have … [Read more…]
I’m taking Saturday off and just passing along some links. First, I wrote about our adventures in Lake Placid, including checking out some Olympics facilities and going to the super-fun Wild Center in Tupper Lake, over at Kids Out and About. Incidentally, the page has a photo of me–think I should add it to my … [Read more…]
We extended our weekend away and only arrived home a few hours ago. I have a ton of accumulated outings for the blog, but no energy to go into them tonight. Luckily we have a couple of weeks of absolutely no travel, so hopefully I’ll be able to catch my breath and catch up with … [Read more…]
Here’s a guest post from Louise. Thanks so much, Louise! It seems like couponing is all the craze at the moment. I am by no means experienced in this area. Originally from the UK we ‘don’t do coupons’, so it’s a novelty to me. I’ve been watching the TLC series Extreme Couponing and am amazed … [Read more…]
Thanks so much to those of you who were kind enough to comment or share the link on Facebook for yesterday’s post. On the topic of romance, a reader asked (aka, ARA) Kristi Gustafson for ideas for a “date night” on her On the Edge blog, so I thought some of you might be interested … [Read more…]
Do you wear your favorite team’s colors for an important game? Or when you’re behind a car that hasn’t noticed that the traffic light’s turned green, do you say things like, “Okay, sir! Time to go! Move along, please!” It’s not effective. Probably. Except I feel compelled to do things like that. Somehow it makes … [Read more…]
We’re headed to Vermont for the weekend to see family and hopefully ski. I am not ready at all. Cute W, however, has purchased a car-top storage thingy for the occasion. This is excellent, because we are a van-free family, so until this purchase we’ve been shoving skis into our small-ish wagon. Frankly, it’s uncomfortable … [Read more…]
I have to wake up early for a 7:30 am appointment, plus I’m just not feeling all bloggy tonight, so here are some random links that you might enjoy. I wrote about a bunch of old ads I found in my attic at All Over Albany. I think they’re pretty funny. Malta Mama reminds us … [Read more…]
We’re having a slightly stressful movie night. Cute W remembered Time Bandits with great fondness, but J is finding it rather terrifying. Also, a lot of casual death. Of course, I can’t be one to cast stones, since I’d recommended the original Cheaper By the Dozen forgetting about a significant death at the end. That … [Read more…]
