Is your power bill outrageous?
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 26, 2009
For those of you not in the know, KY experienced an ice storm a few weeks ago and many, many people were without power.
Can you believe the audacity of the power company to send bills to people that were without power, charging them for the days they were without power? Some places it was weeks.
Is [...]

My new leopard print shoes are just the old cat’s meow!!! I love them….
Terri and I only won one game last night so we settled for second place and we’re happy with that! I was bowling under duress – because a 10 yr. old, Piper, bowling next to us was in love with my leopard [...]
Oprah might be on to something
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 23, 2009
Last week while heading into the living room to see what “the zoo” was barking about, Oprah was on. When she became Miss Goodie-Two-Shoes (claiming to give away all the prizes, cars, etc – and we all know it was the sponsors giving the things away), I quit being one of her viewers. However, this [...]
Leopard print bowling shoes
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 22, 2009
Tonight is the last night of the Sunday night bowling league. Terri and I are a team – we need to win 3 out of 4 points tonight to win first place! I know that my leopard print shoes will do the trick for us! I’m sure that our opponents will be so enthralled and [...]

Aren’t these kind of cute?! Have wanted to knit some fingerless mitts for a long time and since I’m not getting any younger, now was the time.
These are knitted from a free pattern on Ravelry called Fetching (because they are so fetchingly cute!) Pattern called for size 6 needles and since I couldn’t put my [...]
Why do I continue to bowl???
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 19, 2009
Bowled Sunday night and that was fine….bowled Monday at Bowling for Boobies and that was pathetic….bowled Wednesday in league and it was worse than pathetic! We bowled the last place team and were absolutely devasted that they won all 4! And to make matters worse their response was “gosh, we never beat anyone!” LOL And [...]
Bumper Stickers
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 15, 2009
Some bumper stickers just tickle me! Saw one on Friday in Nashville while shopping with Velma….
BUCK FUSH!
You know how some things just make you giggle when you think of them….well, for some reason, this really tickled me!!!
Hope you see the humor in it too!
Bowling – we won 4 today!!!
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 11, 2009
And we beat the team we were tied with for 4th or 5th (can’t remember, duh!).
Vickie was on fire, or as my daughter says “muy fuego”. She bowled a 182 the second game…..however, the first frame of the third game she had 2 gutter balls. I’m sitting here chuckling as I type.
That’s just the way [...]
Great week-end———– weatherwise, finally
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 8, 2009
It’s only the first part of Feb. but the weather sure has been great this week-end! 65 degrees yesterday and when I got up this morning, it was already 64! After what seemed like an eternity of bitter cold weather (and I can say that because I’ve lived in Michigan when we had “tons” of [...]
Finally had a great day on the lanes
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: February 4, 2009
Today, I was finally able to put three decent bowling games together; 146, 146, 136! That is good for me – I’ve been able to put 2 games together, but for some reason, I really messed up one of the games. And we took 4 points today, winning the whole kit and kaboodle! LOL
From bowling, [...]

- Ah….life in the fast lane November 10, 2009At least that’s how I like to think of it! Things have been testy around the house since the bionic man got a new knee. Seems like we’ve had lots of repairmen, which ultimately leads to lots of barking. Derby, our found on the streets of Nashville dog, absolutely cannot help himself when it comes to [...]keepingyouinstitches
- A new and colorful knee! October 24, 2009Tuesday (and this is Saturday) Mark got a new knee; it’s getting more and more colorful! Came home Thursday and trotted him off to rehab on Friday morning. Coloring goes pretty much around the whole knee….wowee! Or maybe I should say owie! Staples come out Nov. 3 and yes, there will be documentation of that too; most [...]keepingyouinstitches
- Very technologically challenged….oh yes, I am October 18, 2009For the life of me, I couldn’t figure out how I was receiving voice mails on my cell phone when it was sitting right next to me! This has been going on for about a week now. Lo and behold, there’s a tiny button on the side of the iphone that if it gets moved, mutes [...]keepingyouinstitches
- Hubby getting new knee………finally! October 17, 2009OK, readers, it’s Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday is new knee day for hubby. He’s already commented a couple of times what a long week-end this will be; add the cold, crappy weather that is predicted, and it will be even longer. I’m trying to play cruise director in making plans that will keep him busy. So [...]keepingyouinstitches
- Generic vs. generic drugs October 13, 2009I’m so fortunate to have health insurance…..some would call it good health insurance. However, today I received a letter from the insurance company stating that the drug I take for acid reflux is now going to be re-classified and will have a high cost…oh, wait, “cost may increase” are the actual words. How absolutely dumb do [. […]keepingyouinstitches
