BAD KITTY December 3, 2009

WOW.  Were people at your work, in your neighborhood or at school talking about Tiger Woods non-stop today?
It’s none of our business and there are far bigger things going on in the world (30-thousand troops being sent in to fight a war we may not win, unemployment, a deficit our grandchildren won’t be able to pay [...]

TIGER… HMMMM December 1, 2009

First… I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.
I didn’t have to cook, so I had a great holiday! 
Actually, it was a nice day with my family.  My boys LOVE going out to my dads in Indiana.  What kids wouldn’t?!  Forget turkey and stuffing….All you can eat sugar and junk food courtesy of Grandma and Grandpa [...]

HAPPY THANKSGIVING November 26, 2009

I’m so looking forward to tomorrow.
1)  Because I’m thankful to get to spend time with my family
2) Because I have the day off of work
3) BECAUSE I DON’T HAVE TO COOK THIS YEAR!
Actually, I think everyone in my family is grateful for that.
For those of you who have followed my blog since last year, you [...]

WHAT’S WITH THE BOOTS? November 25, 2009

Forget Politics and crime!
Tonight… I’m talkin’ fashion.   
What’s with the boot fetish?
Ladies have you noticed?  And guys.. WHAT’S THE BIG DEAL?
It’s the first week of cool weather and so I pulled out my boots.  I’m telling you.. you’d think I was sportin’ a bathing suit in the newsroom.    Even one of our editors who never says [...]

WEEKEND UPDATE November 24, 2009

I had a great weekend… until about 7pm last night!
WHAT HAPPENED BENGALS?!
Wow!  That was a heart breaker!   Can we beat Cleveland??  Boy I HOPE SO!  Either way, I’ll  be in the stands this Sunday rooting the Bengals on.
Meantime, I’m just thrilled that I’m NOT COOKING for Thanksgiving this year.  I pulled it off last year but that was too much [...]

YOU KNOW YOU’RE OLD WHEN… November 21, 2009

I remember the days when I would go out 3, 4, 5 times a week. 
It wasn’t like I didn’t have anything going on.  I had school, work and some times even a second job!  But after work or school, we went out.  A LOT! 
OH TO BE YOUNG AGAIN!
Last night I went out after work.  It [...]

POLITICS ASIDE…. November 19, 2009

WHERE HAS THE WEEK GONE!
I swear.. It was noon today before I realized it was Wednesday.  All morning long I was thinking it was Tuesday.  Thank goodness I figured it out!  I had to host an event tonight.  That would have been really bad.
Maybe it was the fact that after getting less than 5-hours of sleep, [...]

HEALTHY EATING.. November 14, 2009

So this morning, I had one of our photographers stop by my house to shoot a promotion for a story we’re doing on Tuesday night.
I you have a child who struggles with their weight… you’ll want to see this story.  There’s a great program at Children’s that’s really making a difference with overweight kids.
Anyway, they [...]

CONTROL FREAK! November 13, 2009

At what point does your kids homework become your homework?
My Kindergartener had to make a family tree for a school project.  But his school project became MY PROJECT!
I found the pictures, bought the supplies, I even designed the darn thing!
And then, I’m such a control freak, I was trying to let him add the pictures… [...]

PICTURE PERFECT… KINDA November 11, 2009

We had the big photo shoot for the Go Red For Women campaign yesterday. 
It was me, Trisha Macke (19), Carol Williams (9)  and Cammy Dierking (12).  It was for a great cause, to raise awareness about heart disease in women.  It’ll be in the February issue of Cincy Magazine.
Everyone looked so pretty.  We were wearing red formal gowns [...]
