We’re still hoping to squeeze in one more trip before school starts! One of our vehicles gave up the ghost, so my husband needs my traveling van for his work. We do have to get out toward Syracuse for a few appointments coming up; I hope to make a stop at a beach or [...]
We’re going to get school gear this week. Whoopie. I actually hate shopping, especially clothes shopping and shoes shopping! The traffic, the pushy people in the aisles, etc. We’re trying to do what we can online. The major purchase this year will be pants and socks. My kids– all four of them– grew incredibly this [...]
Well, guess what, I have another problem with my web host! Not for this blog (Bluehost has been much better recently), but for my other blog hosted with a different company. All I can say is: WOW. My constant barrage of problems has been supernatural.
THIS time, the date is messed up. My Wordpress dashboard [...]
I have been too many weekend music festivals and, during each one, I have realised that I have not thought of everything one could possibly need for such an event. I have taken my children to festivals when they were younger and these trips necessitated a great deal of planning and packing for.
I have four [...]

The lovely and gracious Carole of Carole’s Thoughtful Spot has deemed this blog “Just Plain Fun to Read.” Yeehaw! See?! There IS someone out there who likes me! lol
Thank you, Carole. Carole’s blog is actually one of my most favorite blogs to visit- now THAT’s a fun blog to read! I am happy [...]
Goodness, people are just flinging awards at Mrs. Mecomber left and right! I’ve got another one, from my great buddy Hercules Mulligan over at Herculean Reflections. It’s a great blog, by the way. Hercules Mulligan has a slew of blogs– I have NO idea how he keeps up with them all– and my favorite is [...]
Well, we don’t know what happened– It seems to be my lot in life to thoroughly befuddle tech support with all my strange and baffling technical problems– but I lost four of my Bluehost blogs today. The ordeal is over and the posts have been restored, but WOW I think I just earned another handful [...]
I happened upon a lovely new blog, devoted to the beautiful scenery and history of the Adirondack Park in New York State, called Adirondack View. The blogger, named Cedar, actually LIVES in the North Country (ohhhhh what a treat!). The photos are outstanding, and depict the glorious scenery so well! Cedar also presents the history [...]
I’ve been having hosting problems ever since I started up with Bluehost a few months ago. All my pals seem to have no problems with them, ever! The first smattering of problems were Bluehost’s fault– a failing server. After they put my data on a new server, things improved, for a while. But after the [...]
Speaking of wind-power (I’m on a roll because I drove up to the Fenner Windmill Farm in Madison County today– more on that later), I found this video about a town completely powered by their windmills. Very impressive! I’d love to do something like this. Only think missing would be… wind. Maybe I should move [...]
Hmmm. I tried uploading another video from our trip to the Erie Canal Village in Rome, NY, and it wouldn’t “go.” It’s a rather large video, something like 800 MB and 8 minutes long. But it was uploading for 12 hours, and I had to stop it. Wow. Is this normal?! I have DSL and [...]
