I thought I was wrong once, but turns out I was just mistaken

Has it really come to this? That I can't even do a simple meme without "screwing the pooch", as they said in The Right Stuff?

In my last post under the joke down there... No the next one. The one about Memes and Awards.

Yeah, that one!

I mixed up my Jules (and no, that isn't some sort of euphemism) and gave credit to The Jules instead of Jules without the The...

Rest assured that both are superior scribes and well worth clicking over to read.

How did this happen? Let's take the quiz to find out!

A. Sky Dad is an idiot.
B. Sky Dad doesn't get enough sleep.
C. Sky Dad drinks too much.
D. Aliens kidnapped Sky Dad and replaced him with a pod.
E. All of the above.

The correct answer will be posted in a blog in the future, but you can all hedge your bets and lean towards the (E)asy answer...

As they say in most periodicals I read, the management regrets any embarrassment this lack of editing may have caused.

But having survived that spinout on the high banked turn #3, I returned to the pits for new rubber, more fuel, and I am back in the race. Although under the caution flag...

I have another special award to tell you all about that I saved as a separate post because it involves honest to goodness gifts/awards/something illegally shipped over state lines. Well, maybe not the last so much, but still, a box full of goodies arrived on my doorstep awhile ago from Lynette from Crazed Mind! Whoooo Hoooo! This is so cool, she shipped me some great car washing stuff. Sponges, special cleaning mitts, scouring pad, it is all very cool! Check it out:



Thanks so very much Lynette, that was so kind of you! Check out her blog folks, it is great.

    Hey, linky errors happen to us all. Did you ever catch the time Scope accidently linked my name to (....wait for it....) a picture of a lizard?!

    True story.

    He claimed it was an accident, but, dammit, I went out and bought new body lotion anyway.

    Ha! That's so something I would do. At least you ended up giving double credit, instead of none at all ;-)

Repost: Everyone uses the word, what's your problem

This is from 2009, but I wanted to re-post it because today is "Spread the word to end the word" day. Every time I hear somebody refer to Skyler as "retard" I die a little more inside. Our-kids is a group of over 1000 people who all are people who are in one way or another in the special needs community. Most of us are parents, but there are teachers, doctors, therapists, siblings, and some are the person with the diagnosis. It is a worldwide community, but most are from the United States. We benefit from having an international membership, because it can be quite interesting to hear about viewpoints or medical procedures that are going on in other countries. Over the years, I have had faceless names become close friends, engaged in discussions about body functions you wouldn’t mention to your doctor, and gained a valuable sounding board for advice and ideas. I have grown to care about a lot of these people, and their lives as much as some of my own friend

Goodbye old friend. Hootie: 1997-2009

I'll never forget the day I first saw him. We were driving home from Golden and Kathy said "Why don't you go this way?" We headed down a street I had never been on and found ourselves driving by a little strip mall. Then Kathy says "Turn in here a minute." Now my spidey senses are on alert, and sure enough, we wind up parking in front of a pet store. Kathy had been out in Golden a couple of days before and had found Hootie sitting in a cage looking so lonely. When we walked in, there was a sad little puppy up high in his own cage, with a sign that had 2 different prices crossed out and the third was pretty low. He had been taken and then returned to the pet store. I knew right then that we were heading home with another dog, I had been suckered! I still wasn't quite over the loss of our Golden Retriever, but I never do seem to get over the loss of a pet. Kathy knows that I need a replacement though, and seeing as we always have dogs in pairs, our
