The Year Kim Finally Made Some Friends (But Is Still Very Much A Dork Since She’s Writing About Making Friends On Her Blog)
I made this awesome video over at Pummelvision the other day. It’s a compilation of all of my last year’s photos from flickr. I’m so in love with it I’ve watched it about 19 thousand times. My Pummelvision from zoot on Vimeo. Made at http://pummelvision.com It’s been an interesting year, and as I spend the last week or so of 2010 contemplating the previous year – I’ve realized something. This was the year I made friends.

Shifting Patience
Donnie and I were talking about the differing patience levels He, E and I all have as it relates to the kids. Turns out, we all look at “patience” only how it applies to the things we’re each NOT patient with.

SO, I decided to try to play with a recipe my friend Shannon show me for a mix that had candy-coated bugels. I bought the ingredients but couldn’t find the red candy-coating anywhere. All gone. SO – I improvised. I did WHITE candy coated bugels AND pretzels... Read More
Day 04: Something You Have To Forgive Someone For (The Beeyatch From Target, Of Course)
Unrelated photo – as usual. I just like it and figured I don’t show enough pictures of my animals now that I have several cute kids to photograph. Remember 30 Days Of Truth? That thing I do when I don’t have a good idea for a blog entry? Well…guess what! It’s time for Day 04 as I have NOTHING ELSE TO WRITE ABOUT. Something you have to forgive someone for I’ve mentioned before that, in many ways, I’m very good at letting go of grudges.... Read More
