Hatching Spring

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) — Wed, 15 May 2013 01:00:35 +0000

You know spring truly has sprung when baby birds hatch. Princess Nagger was excited to show me her discovery of a nest in our Back 40 in my old greenhouse that still needs serious repair work. The missing panel and remaining shelf was the perfect set up for a mama bird to make her nest: [...]

New Dunkin’ Donuts Seasonal Coffee is So Yummy! #sponsored

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) — Tue, 14 May 2013 23:00:25 +0000

The hubby and I are coffee drinkers. The hubby can’t function until he’s had his first cup of coffee in the morning – I know not to engage in any conversations with him in the morning before he’s had his first cup. Ahem. Coffee for me was an acquired taste – I loved the smell, [...]

Chilly Mother Nature, a Brainiac Field Trip, Smash and Touch Axed, 24 Revived and Once Upon A Time Gives Birth: RTT Rebel

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) — Tue, 14 May 2013 04:00:40 +0000

It’s a bit on the chilly side this morning (we even had a frost advisory with the temps dipping to freezing overnight) which is a little disconcerting for May. But you won’t hear me complain, because I’m more of a cold-weather girl anyway – you can always layer, but when it’s too hot you can [...]

just Stand Up And Run Mother Like Mine, sing Mama’s Song for one Hot Mama from the Boys ‘Round Here

It’s a brand new week – I hope all you mothers had a great Mother’s Day. I sure did, but you’ll have to wait until tomorrow to read all about it. I know, I’m such a tease sometimes. Meanwhile, since it is Monday it’s time to enjoy some great music. Music makes the world go [...]

In this technological age, most of us more than likely have our phone and camera (and folders on our hard drive) filled with videos and pictures of our kids and any memorable moments we were inspired to capture. I have so many folders organized by year and month saved, that I had to get an [...]

Orphan Black Phenomenon, Princess Nagger’s Artistic Mad Skillz, Office Supply Art Fun

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) — Fri, 10 May 2013 04:01:09 +0000

Friday arrived very quickly this week – I kept thinking yesterday was Wednesday because Princess Nagger was off school for her final Teacher Inservice day, so I was off-kilter by one day all week. I like when Friday arrives faster than expected, don’t you? Since it’s Friday, it’s time to get the frag on and [...]

Mother’s Day Unplugged – Disconnect to Reconnect #SocialBlackout

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) — Thu, 09 May 2013 22:00:09 +0000

What are your plans for Mother’s Day? We usually keep things low-key, the hubby’s mom passed away many years ago, and my mom is currently 3000 miles away so making plans with her is obviously not going to happen (aside from the usual phone call to wish her a Happy Mother’s Day, of course!) so [...]

The Frog Princess Part 2

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) — Wed, 08 May 2013 01:00:44 +0000

Back in September 2011 I posted about how Princess Nagger likes to stalk the pond and capture goldfish for observation, and when we ended up with some resident frogs, she tried (unsuccessfully) to do same with them: Fast-forward a year-and-a-half later, and she’s still fascinated with watching the frogs and goldfish at the pond (and [...]

School Year Coming to an End with a Wacky Schedule Looming and Giggle Worthy Fun: Random Tuesday Thoughts Rebel

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) — Tue, 07 May 2013 04:00:06 +0000

Wow! Is it Tuesday already? Where did the week go? Of course it feels like Monday for me, since Princess Nagger had the day off from school yesterday. Only 18 school days left of the year – she’s definitely counting down the days, most likely counting down the hours knowing her. When the school year [...]

Proud Mary and Jessie’s Girl both have Moves Like Jagger but wait – Janie’s Got A Gun! Janie Don’t Take Your Love To Town!

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) — Mon, 06 May 2013 04:00:28 +0000

Have you been enjoying spring so far? We’ve been blessed with amazing (and actual) spring weather, so the hubby’s been a busy bee cleaning up the yard and prettying things up around here. Such a nice change from the bland, dreary non-winter winter we had – I’ll have to be sure to take some pictures [...]
