Welcome to our little piece of internet real estate.  We have a lot going on over here, as you can see.  Well, Dom “does” and I “talk.”  It works for us.  Grab a cuppa joe and sit a spell, won’t ya?

Here’s the scoop on what we’re doing now:

Things, Life, What-Not Blog: This is where I rant and rave or swoon and coo over whatever happens to be going on at the moment, be it world-wide, community-related, or only in my head.  I titled it from a scene in Sixteen Candles when the geek asks Samantha, “How’s it going?” She snarks back, “How’s what going?”  He replies with, “You know, things, life, what-not…” and then she slams him with, “Life is not ‘what-not’ and it’s none of your business.” Except that I make it everyone’s business.  I really do. 

The Home Building Blog:  This is the journey of building a house, on which we are about to embark.  Sanity is overrated. 

The Family Tree will hopefully have links to our Ancestry.com trees and maybe even a few downloadable files for any of you fellow genealogy geeks out there.  Lotsa pics too. 

The Munchkins: Mostly my favorite pictures, and a few tidbits about the kids who keep us simultaneously on our toes and on our knees.   

The Critters are our furry children.  We have two dogs, two rabbits and a tank full of fish.  Enough said, right?  Our Black Lab, Mabel, may have her own blog someday.  She needs a place where she has permission to rule. As if she cared anything about permission…

The Purpose Driven Mom: my journey into healthy stuff.  I dragged my family along kicking and screaming.  They survived.  I am more active on this blog than any of my other domains.  It’s my passion site. 

Favorite Recipes: We love food.  Let’s face it, you can’t live in Louisiana and not love food.  Plus, there’s Italian in the bloodline.  Buon appetito!

Twitter:  You can find me on Facebook and Twitter.  If I don’t recognize your FB name, I probably won’t accept the friend request…just sayin’.  I do have a FB page for Purpose Driven Mom. Twitter is an open book.  Feel free to follow. 

Here are some of my favorite posts from around my blog garden:
