I started writing this post and thought it would be one or two paragraphs at most. I should have known better. Last night I discovered what a weirdo I was. I mean, I always knew I was weird, but last night really drove home how weird I was. I met a new blogger friend who is…
Read MoreI’ve been challenged to blog every day for an entire month. Normally I post 5 or so blogs a week, sometimes less and sometimes more. It just depends on how much of my crazy I’m willing to let the public see. Well, now there’s no avoiding it. I’m going to post every day for the…

I decided to check into my blog after the third Twitter message came through asking if I had finally eaten the Twinkie that took my life. No, no Twinkies have killed me! I’ve been spending some time with Hubster who is lounging at home for a few weeks. I’ve also been preparing myself for a visit…

Lola and I took a few days off social media this week in order to lay around the house like fat kids and pretend the country wasn’t going election crazy. The fence around our property is being replaced so there was a bunch of machinery here making noise and it traumatized us both into missing our daily…

For the past week I’ve been working my tail off on designs for my Zazzle store. I knew I couldn’t solve all of America’s election problems so I decided to make what little difference I could- retail therapy. I even started throwing in sales on election day just so people could come home and cry…

One month down, one month to go. Every year I cringe waiting for October and November to disappear, taking its nasty pumpkin smell with it. Thankfully, December rolls in with enough peppermint to sear my nasal passages and remove all traces of orange gourd smell. Check out my Facebook page @ShankYouHeather and @ShankYouDesigns I also tweet like…
