HAPPY HAUSFRAU: Plans Gone Awry
Usually when I pull on my Happy Hausfrau pants, I have it together. My projects tend to go off without a hitch, and they end up here, at Blogging Barefoot, with lots of pretty pictures while I brag about my housewifery prowess. This is not one of those times. I have a dirty little secret. … Continue reading »
MAKING IT HAPPEN
Last week I finished up the revisions I started *gulp* a year ago on my book. Revisions I embarked on after receiving a very nicely worded rejection from an agent. A very nicely worded rejection that totally knocked my feet out from under me. A very nicely worded rejection that had me re-writing the … Continue reading »
QUICK GIGGLE: Cockroach vs. Weatherman
Due to the TV station claiming the rights to the video, this video is no longer available on YouTube. Bummer. You can go watch it here (thanks, K. B. Owen), or I can describe it to you. Here goes: Stop! It’s weathertime! *music plays in background, dancers dressed in M.C. Hammer pants girate across the … Continue reading »

Okay, well maybe a little too much heavy breathing had something to do with the fact that I was 34 … Continue reading »
QUICK GIGGLE: Sexy Sax Man
Okay, so this giggle’s not as quick as usual. But when you’re never gonna dance again… And when your guilty feet have got no rhythm… Sometimes what you really need is five minutes of a guy in pleather tights playing the sexy sax riff from George Michael’s Careless Whispers over… and over… and over… (p.s. I’m more than a … Continue reading »
GUEST POST: Life Lessons from a Great Dane by Marcy Kennedy
Today’s guest post comes to you from my gal Marcy Kennedy. Like me, Marcy’s a writer, a farmer’s daughter, and an animal lover. Her blog is one of the best I’ve read – you should definitely stop by and give it a look – and I’m totally honored to have her here today! It’s all … Continue reading »
REplay: Shara Worden and yMusic
(This is a post from about a year ago. I just love, love, love this little tune, and wanted to re-play it for all you new friendlies who have joined me over the past year. Hope you like it, too.) Good music is a huge motivator for me. I stumbled onto this gem yesterday, and it’s been stuck … Continue reading »
