About Me
"Mom, you're on crack," my kids' favorite response to my valuable comments." I like to think of myself as the grandma humorist of the 21st Century. At best, I'm Erma Bombeck on crack.
I've been telling people what to do for years. And for the same number of years, they've been ignoring me. What better way to continue the tradition than to start blogging!
I hope you enjoy my funny... working its way up to hilarious... blog.
Please leave COMMENTS. I love to know you enjoy the posts. Some days your comments make my whole day. I'm of the age when that might be as good as it gets!

Hooker grandma
“Grandma, will you please put some fingernail polish on me?” asked the six-year-old Worm. Her mom, the GAP, sat in the chair at the computer and overheard. “Remember you can’t have dark colors or red,” she cautioned. “Little girls can … Continue reading

Somethings new, somethings not
The irises are in bloom again. Bought a new car last week. Couponman worked his wonders at the dealership. If you consider years of payments a wonder. The Toyota Highlander is comfy, but has a little style, not looking quite … Continue reading
Day of fools
Guess which one of these is my April Fool’s joke? The roof in the sunroom caved in last week because of the rain. I just won the largest lotto in history so I am quitting my job tomorrow. Well, if … Continue reading

Here we go again
“Do you have any plans on April 28th?” the GAP asked from her end on the phone. “April 28th?” I questioned her. “I don’t even know what’s on for tomorrow.” “Well, there’s going to be a 5K run at the … Continue reading
