A Red Head in Austin: A cautionary tale for Chris Brown fans

drdonnaatx:

When I was 19 I married my high school sweetheart. He had never hit me in anyway. Never had yelled at me. He was in the Navy and we moved nearly 1000 miles away from home. We had been married one week when he first slapped me. I forgave him. We had been married about a year when he first punched…

The Unfollowables

I love twitter and am getting comfortable with facebook. I have used both enough to have established my likes and dislikes. (I don’t have any for tumblr because I haven’t decided how I want to use this site yet. Still getting the “feel” of it.)

Most of my peeves are based on HOW I use these platforms: social interaction. Some use it for advertising, professional networking, customer service, pontificating and even storytelling. All of these are okay, of course. But if I can’t interact with you, I’m not interested!

Three for today

  • Job hunt for hubby has been very busy! Don’t know what I’d do if ALL we had to do was sit around and wait.

  • Crock pots. I like being able to throw ingredients into a pot the morning and magically having a meal ready at the end of the day.
