HollyDay: or adding that extra candle

****I’ve gotten several comments that the site is not coming thru readers well.  Here’s the direct link if it helps: http//:anglophilefootballfanatic.com
Here they are - 31 questions you asked for my 31st birthday.  I didn’t get to answer everybody, but everyone that asked something is listed & linked somewhere.

El Burrito Sabanero

With multiple degrees between us, it only took the rocket scientist and I about three hours to figure out how to make the Flip work.  That’s pretty sad, isn’t it?  You asked for Knute LIVE!, so Knute LIVE! you will have.
He is the one first in line at the beginning.  You will hear him say, [...]

I’ve Become THAT Mother

There were many things I told myself I would do as a parent: never deny Knute books when he asked for them, stick to the schedule at all costs, never be afraid to give him a good wallop when he needed it, and lavish praise for jobs well done come to mind.  I think I’ve [...]

The Story of Peeping Tomas

Normally I try to limit my TMI (haha) on here to once in a great moon, but when Trannyhead, Esq. said she wanted green bean stories, I was willing to take one for the team - because that is one hawt lawyer.  And, she’ll tell you that herself.  I even asked which green bean story [...]

Giveaway Week Day 5: And, now, it’s Twilight

Guess what movie comes out today?  That’s right.  I am so in love with a fictional character named Edward that I’m forcing my spouse to take four days of vacation in order to see a movie with two (her & her) of my Houston bloggy peeps.  And, I think everybody and their dog knows what [...]

I’ve Lost my Mojo

Hi!  Yes, I’ve unexpectedly taken a whole week off.  I never intended for that to happen, and I truly apologize, not to mention thanks to everybody who had emailed asking where the fark I’ve been.  I seem to have lost my mojo, and I’m talking major writer’s block sufferage ’round here.  A few things are [...]

Bunches of Thanks

I want to thank all of you who commented or emailed me regarding my last post.  It was not easy to write, but I think I actually talked myself down from an episode by putting words to all the feelings I either repressed or held inside.  Getting it out honestly made me more calm.  I [...]

Stop, Drop & Roll into a Fetal Position

The die is cast.  The cool, crispness in the air was a signal I couldn’t ignore any longer.  My son is officially a preschooler.  I have been updating my Facebook status daily with the amount of time until the big one hit.  But, I knew it was never really going to happen - how could it?  [...]

I took the Bait - Hook, Line & Sink-her.

I last left you with beavers upstairs in MIL’s house.  We resume the tale downstairs in her mother’s room.  
Here’s your background on Puppy’s maternal grandmother: She is a seriously old school Southern woman.  She is very blue blood and really loves to claim her DAR membership with a flourish of “My family came over on [...]

Finding a Voice & the Tie that Binds

As I sit here in my cotton tee and undies, with my glasses slightly askew, I start to become a bit maudlin.  Now, for me, the blogosphere has come full circle (almost).  On the 21st, I will officially celebrate one year of blogging - something that still shocks me.  Because, although it is only one [...]
