Ginger Doodles: May 2015
http://www.gingerdoodles.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Snickers and Snark - Stories from a Rampant Redhead. May 6, 2015. A Childbirth By Any Other Name. Earlier today I read this post. On the Scary Mommy blog, which was biting back at all those people (mostly women) who seem to think that if you aren't squirting babies out of your fun house after hours of excruciating and unmedicated labor, then somehow you aren't a "real woman." Personally? I think that's one of the biggest crocks of bullshit I've ever heard. Have to run around birth-shaming as well? Eighte...

Ginger Doodles: Macramé Flambé and Roving Outhouses
http://www.gingerdoodles.com/2011/03/macrame-flambe-and-roving-outhouses.html
Snickers and Snark - Stories from a Rampant Redhead. March 3, 2011. Macramé Flambé and Roving Outhouses. Basil Eugene LaRue, Jr., age 1. No wonder he opted for silliness- how would. Like to be saddled with a name like that? He also claimed to have stabbed some guy in the hand with a serving fork when he started getting grabby with the food or complaining about rations. Of course, knowing my dad, he was also. Sailor Dad, age 20-ish. Good, you could improvise them instantaneously while you were singing.

Ginger Doodles: Who Do You Think You Are? - The Genetic Journey
http://www.gingerdoodles.com/2014/08/who-do-you-think-you-are-genetic-journey.html
Snickers and Snark - Stories from a Rampant Redhead. August 16, 2014. Who Do You Think You Are? Lately I've been watching a show on TLC called "Who Do You Think You Are? Largely sponsored by Ancestry.com, it follows various celebrities around as they trace bits of their family history. Given my own history (and frequent lack thereof), I find this show fascinating. Obviously this is a television show and is therefore edited for maximum effect, particularly in presenting the whole "rise above adversity" th...

Snickers and Snark - Stories from a Rampant Redhead. August 14, 2014. Moving, Part #2: The House that Crack Built. Any time you move into a new home, unless it is legitimately. Oh, look.it's my Tennessee house. (From Pleated-Jeans.com). Just sittin' here, waiting to suck up all your steam. I'm gonna drop decaying paint in your food instead! Looks like some of my ductwork.

Ginger Doodles: Goodbye, 2012
http://www.gingerdoodles.com/2012/12/goodbye-2012.html
Snickers and Snark - Stories from a Rampant Redhead. December 31, 2012. The dawn of a new year approaches, and it's time to say goodbye to the old. As years go, 2012 was a pretty basic year with some ups and some downs and mostly a lot of average. Still, as the old year passes, I'd like to tip my hat to it by recognizing ten of the more significant events which transpired during its course:. 1 I lost a mother. (God freed my 80 year-old-mother from her Parkinson's. And dementia in April.). Party poopers&#...

Ginger Doodles: Pennsylvania: Where Nipples Go to Convalesce
http://www.gingerdoodles.com/2011/11/pennsylvania-where-nipples-go-to.html
Snickers and Snark - Stories from a Rampant Redhead. November 6, 2011. Pennsylvania: Where Nipples Go to Convalesce. Speaking of signs, by far the best part about driving through Pennsylvania are, in fact, the road signs. On our most recent trip there in August I spent pretty much the entire time both going and coming trying to get decent pictures of some of the better ones. While I didn't get all of the good ones, I did get a few to share. Lucky you. Keep Alert.the world needs more Lerts. As opposed to ...

Ginger Doodles: I Don't Think That Word 'Adventure' Means What You Think It Means
http://www.gingerdoodles.com/2015/04/i-dont-think-that-word-adventure-means.html
Snickers and Snark - Stories from a Rampant Redhead. April 23, 2015. I Don't Think That Word 'Adventure' Means What You Think It Means. My intended destinations than when I'm actually there. While I've never had a truly traumatic trip anywhere, the fact remains that something. Still manages to happen nearly every time I go anywhere near an airport. The cumulative effect makes me look like Pigpen from Charlie Brown, only surrounded by a cloud of disgruntled TSA agents rather than one of dirt. After dinner...
