Katherine gets the Kids

This morning while drinking my Capresso I ran across the story that Katherine Jackson is getting custody of the Michael’s three kids. Debbie Rowe, the mother of his first two children, says she justs wants "meaningful visitation" and is happy with the arrangements. My thought is "this is news?"

I’m Driving

We had to drive to Cleveland the other day because Grump had to get his foot worked on. It was a miserable morning with drizzling rain and heavy traffic. It seemed like no one driving realized that other people were driving on the same road as them and they just zigged and zagged and zigged [...]

Sock Monkey Night Light

 
I recently received sock monkey night light for review. I had a sock monkey plush toy as a child so I was excited to be able to review one of their products. I’ve already purchased the stuffed toy for my 5 year-old daughter, but needed a new and fun night light for her, so I [...]
