Love/Hate Relationships
I’ve decided to go with a new look for my blog today (I hope a much better option than the decision I made to try a new look with my bangs recently)–because I’m tired of the ‘same old, same old’ that I’ve had for quite a few months now, and thought it may be time [...]

Friday Ramblings
Thought I’d post a few more Friday ramblings today; it’s really hot and humid here and it’s difficult to concentrate on anything long-winded, so this seems like a good idea…time will only tell if it is! Got my hair cut … Continue reading →

Hello, I am a super-hero, hereafter to be known as ‘The Procrastinator’. I don’t leap tall buildings or catch bullets with my teeth; I don’t hunt down criminals with crazy names like Penguin or The Joker; I don’t battle cyborgs or …
