hey!!

(oh by the way...that's not "brats" like kids...that's "brats" like bratwurst. LOL!)

welp im back in the "blog office" again.  we just got back from a fun, exciting trip to visit some friends and do some sight-seeing in the south!  yep, us yanks (me, hubby and the dog) went down to atlanta for hubby to visit a friend and for me to catch up with my...

good afternoon, ya'll!

well, i've given up waiting on Yahoo to get back with me about moving my 360 blog over.  i guess im gonna haveta do it manually, which sucks, but i dont know what else to do!  i've searched online for anyone else who's wanted to do the same and/or instructions on how to move it with no luck :( 

so, for those of you subscribing (or anyone else who notices *lol*), for the next few weeks you may see some backlogged blog posts popping up (if that's how it works...i donno?!).  i'll do a few this week...but then i'll be "out of the blog office" for several days as i'll be tied up doing some other stuff...

hallo out there! :D

i did a little redecorating!  did you notice? LOL!  hopefully it's a little better than before.  i just couldn't resist having some bright colors, but i tried to tone things down a bit and make things a little easier to read. :)

i am particularly fond of the hugemongous banner--yes, that's me up there! (in the red coat.)  a few Christmases ago, me and hubby got my niece and nephew a double-tube to use at my parents'.  they have a great sledding hill behind the house in the "back forty." hehe!...

hello all my blog-lurking friends! hehe! ;)

i have to admit something.  ever since i moved from Yahoo 360 i just havent felt "at home."  when i start to write up an entry i just have this weerd feeling...no, not that somebody's watchin me...;)  hmmm...maybe its cause on Yahoo everything was "cartoony" or nooby or unprofessional as compared to now "doing it all myself" (no offense Yahoo!) or something; i had a more laid-back attitude when posting there, because honestly, i didnt think anyone was reading it anyway *LOL*  like i've said, my blog is basically a...

goooood morning :D  (man, i do have to say, i miss my yahoo smiley emoticons *lol*)

well today is gonna be fun!!  i have a friend...

happy monday :)

dang i have been doing so many different things today, and have been wanting to blog, but i just cant make up my mind on what to blog about! LOL!  i think the cogs and sprockets are gonna blow soon if i just dont put SOMEthing down ;)  heehee. 

so first, i’ve been doing a buncha bloggy-type research today.  looking around at others’ blogs, reading up on some tips-n-tricks sites, etc…i have to say im a bit overwhelmed.  i feel like ive broken all the blog etiquette and rules as far as the way i’ve set up my site, and especially the crazy, wacky color scheme. LOL!  but i couldnt help doin it up that way…im always drawn to those bright colors and what is fun—it’s built into my personality!  but i dont want…

hey all! :D

so yesterday i was sitting around, thinking about all the weight i still have to lose, which is another 50lb to get to my goal of 150 (i have already lost an additional 50lb—7 years ago).  i turned the clock back 15 years to when i graduated high school *mr rogers neighborhood of make believe sound*LOL*…i was a normal-sized-8 person, 5’3” and 130lb.  when i look at those old pix, i see ME.  i see my jaw line, sparkling eyes, normal arms and legs, and i just have a comfortable look about me.  i didnt think i was fat then; or more like, i didnt obsess about it and compare myself constantly like i do now (altho i am better than i used to be!!).  i mean sure, there was always the friend…

for now, my archives are hangin out back in yahoo 360.  i'm gonna see what i can do to bring them over!  but for now, if you are wanting to check them out just head over to my 360 site.

i'm still brainstorming for fun ideas to add to sillygolucky, so stay tuned for more stuff!  and of course, i'm here to entertain you (and hopefully inspire you, too! hehe!) so if there's something you think might be cool to add, drop me a line :D  i'm still a newb when it comes to a lot of bloggy/coding/geekified puter stuff, but i'm learning, so who knows that i'll come up with. haha!
