Traffic Violation

On my way to court to try to fight a speeding ticket I received months ago...wish me luck!


I guess I should have at least tried to talk myself out of the ticket, but I didn't.  Heading to Patterson Court House in a couple of minutes.



Basically, they make you show up 45 minutes before court begins.  Sounds like a whole lot of waiting around if you ask me.  That'll teach me to keep the pedal to the metal!  No, seriously, I really wasn't going very fast. The officer made a mistake.  It was impossible for me to be speeding.  I was in a long line of cars driving home after work and there's just no way I could have been doing 20 mph above the speed limit.  If I was, EVERYBODY was speeding.



Anyone who thinks my hot new Mini may have proved to be a target, raise your hand!

Hey! Curious where I've been for the last 7+ years?

Oh my poor lonely blog, without a blogger to care for it....shame on me!  This is a typical Gemini, or A.D.H.D. behavior rather, that I often exhibit.  It's called toobusytocareism .  It's true!  I have just been too busy to pay any attention to...ME.  I love to write, but I also love all of the life events that I've endured over the past SEVEN YEARS if I'm doing my math correctly. I began this blog ages ago - when I was recently married and not yet a Mama.  I was still quite busy with work, lots of cats and my Mister, who we'll keep anonymous - at least for now.  We were living in that gorgeous Queen Anne style Victorian in Amenia, New York, when I had started my beloved blog.  Well, it lasted less than one full month - the blog that is - not the house, relationship, etc.!  The marriage is still going strong (at least most days) and the house to the best of my knowledge still stands as well, but we don't live in it, which brings me to my...

Off to Vermont

I'm feeling MUCH better since my last post, but that flu was brutal!  I was sick for almost two weeks. We're off to Vermont this morning and bringing two of our cats, L'il Munch and Molly, with us!  I'm bringing my camera and will share pictures upon my return.  I would love to post in my Blog while up in the mountains, but believe it or not, I have no cell service up there and no Internet!  Talk about going back in time... Don't worry, we do have water and electric.  I'm not feeling THAT adventurous to part with such luxuries as hot showers and light!

Day 5 With The Flu

Well, I'm still suffering with the flu.  This is now my fifth day of spending at least half of the daylight in my bed and basically the remaining hours on my couch.  My husband is down in Florida visiting his Mom, sister and niece and even though I miss him when he's gone, I must say, I am comforted knowing that he doesn't have to look at me in this condition.  It is not pretty!  Today I really need to try to take a shower.  I promise you all I have showered since I've been sick, but I admit, I haven't showered much.  It seriously takes a lot of energy to do such things when suffering from this illness.  Wish me luck! I spoke to my Mom last night.  She, too, is down in sunny Florida (at least I think they have some sun today in Naples). Anyway, the funny thing is my Mom told me to I have to be careful about my cats.  At first I didn't know what she meant, but then I realized she was worried about my getting them sick.  I explained ...
