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...

Cat World

I have always been a huge fan of cats.  Yes, I have been called Crazy Cat Lady more times than I can count.  I never really understood that term, to be honest.  In fact, I can't understand why anyone wouldn't want to have a bunch of cats around.  Cats are magnificent creatures.  They are smart and have unique personalities and needless to say, cats don't lack attitude.  They don't just follow you around and do whatever you would like them to do and I find that's what makes them desirable pets for me.  One must respect a cat to earn their affection. I have had two cats for many years.  Let's face it, pets are a lot of work and I always felt two furry friends provided me with great companionship and also plenty of work.  It wasn't until about two years ago that a third kitty found her way into my life.  She literally showed up outside in the freezing cold on Christmas Eve Day.  It was about 12 degrees outside and I had a terrible fe...

Dental Disaster

I must have bad luck when it comes to dental work.  I went into my dentist's office today for a simple filling.  He gave me a shot of Novocaine and kept asking me whether or not I was numb.  I kept telling him, "a little bit."  Anyway, he starts drilling and I basically jumped in my seat.  Then he asks, sounding surprised, "Are you feeling this?" while simultaneously pulling the drill out of my mouth. "Yes!" I replied as best I could with some contraption still hanging out of the left side of my mouth.  And I knew immediately when he pulled the drill out of my mouth (drill still set on high speed), he swiped my bottom lip. I'm now back at work with a not-so-small cut on my not-so-small recently fattened lip. I have a party to attend tomorrow night.  I just hope I can hide this by then.  :(  BOO HOO Now I know why it's been a while since I went to the dentist.  Somehow, it's never a good experience for me.
