Yep. I know. I skipped my weekend posts. Sorry. Had a blizzard so was kind of busy. I’ll update you on my dieting this coming Saturday. I will say I didn’t follow my diet like I was supposed to and learned my lesson. More on that Saturday. I also have a funny story to tell about the blizzard that I was going to write yesterday, however, that’ll wait until tomorrow. Here’s the posts I picked for today:

Obesity Kills

My last post was a moment of silence for Heidi’s husband. Here she explains what happened. I’d consider this an extremely important read for anyone who is still putting off their dieting.

Interesting turn of events, but in this day and age, it makes complete sense.

Poison Study and Magic Study have been on my wishlist at Amazon for a while now. I’m a huge fan of fantasy novels. This is a great interview with the author of those books.

I thought this was a funny post by the coder behind Entrecard. If you’d like to see a photo of him with the pizza we all chipped in for, check out this post on the Entrecard blog too: Pizza for phi

I miss my drama kids. all grown and gone now. My oldest has two of those smarty pants drama kids himself. Today is My Mom’s 74th birthday and I have long since realized that she was a very smart woman; well except that she had eight kids. I woulda quit right after ME! and only had six! Then she opened a day care and kept 125 kids daily and nightly.. She had daycare open for three shifts so that the working people; as she used to call the ungrateful parents who paid her ten dollars a week to keep their mean kids; could work in peace knowing their babies were safe. Then when I was 16 and just married; which meant she had only two brats left to drive her crazy; she opened a foster home. She raised 21 foster kids before finally giving that up because she hated the way the state moved kids so often. Even now she still baby sits one little boy after school every day.. This is the first time she hasn’t had at least a half dozen of the pouty little monsters around her at all times. Hmmm On second thought.. Nah I still think she is a smart woman!

Thanks, Saphrym, for bringing this peek into some of your favorite EC sites and posts. As much as I read different blogs in a day, I sometimes miss the most interesting ones

Phirate certainly has a delectable pizza purchased with his pizza dough!

My kids are grown and gone, but I do have a drama grandchild, so even though remote, I can certainly empathize with Mad
