In July, I asked: Share Your Secret?
And I got an interesting response that prompted a lot of people to believe that I had something really deep and dark hidden inside of me.
I’ll be the first to admit that several people have said that I “intrigue,” “interest,” or “fascinate” them and I’m not sure why. Mindy [...]

Wow, what a response to our new theme. Thanks to all of you who e-mailed and left comments!
So, Mindy and I are forever inventing, you’ve learned this right? For quite some time we’ve had the idea for a confessions site. Something where Work-at-Home Moms can anonymously confess their working secrets and actually see that someone [...]

On a normal blogging day, by now I would have spent hours complaining about living in Bakersfield, being upset with my family, or yet another thing that has annoyed me.
But I haven’t done that, there’s no need to. And yet it shows the first signs of a better (and healthier) Katy. I have no complaints. [...]

Our move went great and I couldn’t be more thrilled to tell you I’m HOME. That’s right, HOME in Las Vegas where we belong. Our place is great and I have a fabulous view of the Las Vegas strip. Clearly visible all [...]

To the occasional cloud covering over the MGM Grand that appears green.
To the “just because” drives from one end of the strip to the other.
To meaningful use of the word “local.”
To all our friends [...]

When we were in Las Vegas a couple of weeks ago I was talking to my brother, Steve and Joanne mentioning how weird it was to be a visitor in our old home. As I looked around the living room I started pointing out different things.
It was that front door that Joanne walked through carrying [...]

I’ve never been one for toys. I didn’t play with them much as a child, I hated cartoons, and was totally against anything remotely child-like. It was just never my thing. My brothers and sisters all watched Sesame Street and I didn’t care for it.
With friends, I wanted to ride my bike and hit the [...]

This year, we’re having 2 birthday parties for Zadey. One in Bakersfield so that my (real) Mom can be there and one at my parent’s house down south where Joanne’s parents can attend and be around.
Last night was our “Bakersfield party” for Zadey. I think she had a blast and gave an ounce of recognition [...]
