Need Input Here...


As most of you know, I've been recently empty nested by my Lovely Valedictorian Daughter. Yes, I'm still very proud of her, and all the hard work she put in ;-)

Now with that comes many many University related bills. I crunched the numbers, and with a pretty tight budget, I have figured out the minimal amount of funds needed for her to attend the University of her choice, which is less then an hour from home, thank God. Now this is where my request lies, no, not money, sillies... Just perspective. Although a few tips would not be frowned upon ;-)

But seriously, I know a lot of you have put your kids through school, and I'm just wondering what a typical year cost for different people. Living expenses also count, obviously, as having your child sleep on the street, starving, lonely and cold would not be very conducive with providing them with a quality education.

I'm asking because, being recently divorced, I'm having to defend the fact that University Fees are way more than the ONE bill the chosen establishment is charging us with.

So how much does a typical year of University cost?

I had a "Nice Cop" incident the other night...


I got pulled over for speeding... Ooops! Not a surprise considering it was 2am, and me and this cop where the only cars in town... Seriously, I had the run of the place ;-)  But I was a "Good Girl" and cooperated fully. After all, I was speeding. We got to talking, about our kids, and University, and the fact that I was just getting home and wanting to get to bed asap. Come to think of it, he didn't even ask me for my papers. This is a small town, but still, I've met a few power hungry cops who think they're above the law, so it was kinda nice to get pulled over by a "human" cop.  So NO Ticket!! And I had my hands on the wheel, the whole time ;-)

What a Ride!!

Just realized I missed my Blog Anniversary :(
Tree days ago...


Uh... I mean three, like September 6th.
Been hanging around the woodlot lately, can you tell... ;-)

Thinking... ;)


Gotta flip that "Empty Nest" thing to my advantage... :D

~ My New Phone ~


I had the the S4mini before. I liked it, but it was getting
kinda hard to do all the random stuff I like ;-)

The basics are similar, so the learning curve ain't too bad.
Anyone out there using the Note 4?

Quick Trip to My Woodlot

 I took a drive out to My Woodlot yesterday. Hadn't been there in over a month.
I mostly wanted to make sure everything was ok out there, you never know, eh ;-)
And also, mom and my daughter came with, so it was nice to show them
what I had done so far.

I brought some water for the new plants, just in case, but to my delight, they were doing awesome with no help from anyone. I was a little worried since they're not settled in yet, and it hadn't rained for a few weeks. But they looked good, so I guess that means
they like their new home.

Then I saw this little guy. Looks like somebody just had a snack.


I'll be sure to get more pictures soon :-)

~ No Rest For The Wicked ~


I started this post last night, then set it aside 'till today.
Because simply put... I'm fucking pooped!!!
I just dove 16 hours straight getting back to my daughter and our igloo.
39 hours without sleep... I need another nap :P

MissK ~ Camo Time!!

I caught the crafty bug over the weekend.
Figured I should do something about it.
So I went to get me some camo paint...
And went to work :-)


Now, keep in mind, I've never done this before.
Victim #1 : an empty kitty litter bucket.
I thought it would be an easy target for my first ever camo job.
Turned out pretty good. Well, I thought so ;-)

MissK ~ Roaming The Lakeside ;)

I'm gonna find a spot where I can actually roam the beach.
But in the meantime, this little lakeside park peaked my curiosity.
I got a few nice shots out of it :-)


The weather's so nice out here...

Note to Self...

....Avoid excessive sunlight in combination with high levels of caffeine, and lack of sleep.

P.S. Cheesecake in the works... ;-)

I Has Landed!

Well, last night actually ;-)


16 hours later... not a snowflake in site.
Monster trees line the roads, screeching beetles to be heard
from miles around. It's pleasantly warm
with a slight breeze in the air. Perfect place to put my boots up and relax for a while. I'll get use to the beetles :P

I feel a sudden urge to go make a cheesecake...
