Playing catch up and exciting news!

Posted on October 30, 2010 by sheila| 10 Comments

Lots and lots has been going on over here lately. First of all, I’ve published my very first book and I’m SO excited! It’s titled ZEN-SATIONAL LIVING. If you wanna check it out or pre-order it, just click on that pic of the book to the right. (it’s also going to be available on Amazon in about a week!) I’ve also spruced up and renamed my wellness blog.

Then, the other day I got a call and I have been invited to be one of three Northeast Ohio mom bloggers to be a Chevy Mom in the Gotta Love Chevy campaign that is going on. So what this means is that I am given a new Chevy Traverse to take home and drive for the month of November. You’ll be seeing a couple posts weekly here on my site, and also on the Chevy site..containing updates on my experiences. They are also sending me on weekly ‘missions’….so very mom-bond like. lol. Oh, and did I mention they also giving me a Flip video camera? Um yeah. *grin*.

Let’s see….my garden is still producing stuff. Yes, I know, it’s gotten into the 30′s at night here, so I’m not sure how long that will last. The wind storm the other day blew a lot down and cracked stems of plants. I can’t wait to see where all the new tomato plants pop up next season…since I’ve got a few smashed tomatoes here and there and everywhere from the storm. My broccoli all flowered. I was going to cut it all down the other day….but there were like a bazillion bees all gathering pollen on the flowers, and well, I’m not messin with no bees. (btw, isn’t that flowering broccoli pretty???)

Alan finished his cross country season with a personal best 5K time of 25:01. I really enjoyed this whole running thing. Well, not that I ran, but I did enjoy watching. MC is going to be in a school play in a couple weeks and Kaylee is going on a college outreach trip during November to help the homeless in DC.

My Mayors Genitals.

Posted on December 7, 2009 by sheila| 15 Comments

Okay. So. lol…..Do you remember when I was complaining about my Mayor. Who often sported a Superman costume? The same one who called me Snide and Snarky (here) after I had to friend him on Facebook in order to get a response to my complaints… because he wasn’t returning my emails or calls. (Seems he was too busy posting pics of himself with celebrities like Justin Timberlake and posting about showing off his ‘white Ohio tan’ on a nude beach in Texas?) Yup.

The same Mayor who told me that all this crap on his Facebook page is ‘to promote the City’? (Ironically, when I called him out on nude beach post, questioning what that had to do with promoting our City…it was quickly removed)

Well, well, well. Seems he just wrote a book (the same one he was promoting on his nude beach trip). It’s a book about how he promotes our City by giving proclamations to celebs visiting the area. Oh you should see his website(s) littered with pics of famous people and of course, him. Now he’s got a book. What’s wrong with that you ask? Well, nothing. UNTIL you get to page 97. It seems that because of a couple bloggers over the years calling into question his sexual orientation…and size…he felt it necessary to devote a segment in his new book….for everyone- and his mom- to see…for all eternity…no take backs….the SIZE of his genitals. YUP! lol.

Since my own personal opinion is that he’s a tool…I’m not going to give him the satisfaction of plugging his book. Lets just say, if you are interested in the story, you can google….”mayor book genitalia” and find it easily. Because let’s face it, how many Mayors include their pee-pee measurements in a book?

I don’t know how big it is and I’m not buying the book to find out. *ew, icky, yuck, spit* I have however seen pics of him in his Superman costume and let’s just say he doesn’t look super-heroish. *Purell, PURELL!* And…when I used to say he was a big prick…I didn’t mean it ‘that‘ way.

The funny thing? Yesterday we got one of those robocalls from the city? Yup. It was a message that Santa would be at the rec center over the weekend…and…the Mayor would be their reading out loud to the children. *GASP* I hope to GOD it’s not page 97 of his book.
