a watched battery never charges

so i finally got a digital camera – yeah for me. i can now inundate all my friends and family with colour photos not just black and white ones. so you would think that after waiting a whole week for it to come in the mail i could wait another hour for the battery to charge, but no, of course i can’t. every few minutes i look over to the indicator, only to be crushed... Read More

OMG I’m posting on Zoot’s blog!!!

And I have to say I’m relieved I already posted the ne.kkid elderly photo on my blog, cause the temptation to post it here might’ve been too great! That said, I’m going to talk about…Zoot! I can’t tell you how glad I am I found her blog! She’s upbeat, funny, honest, amusing, loves dogs, hilarious, kind, entertaining, AND has gloriously beautiful... Read More

Hump Day Switcheroo

My proxy poster (MrZoot) is going to be giving a presentation this morning. A Presentation he’s terrified about, by the way – so send all your good presntation thoughts to Huntsville, AL around 8am Central Time. Since he may not get to post for me today – I’m going to take a page out of Chris and Amber’s books and leave the posting to you guys. Now,... Read More

looking through zoot’s place is fun while she’s out. how many colors of shoes can one person own? there are also a helluva lot of animals in this place. since there were no ground rules set, i am going to use my space to point out that in the alabama vs tennessee football rivalry, alabama leads 43-35-7. that is all. i will now take my leave, along w/all the krispy... Read More

Presentation Presented

I would just like to give a quick word of thanks to all of the well-wishers from this morning. I just got back to my office from my morning presentation. Seemingly, all went well. At least that’s what I was told. I’m the type of person that gets overly worked up about this type of stuff (public speaking), so I know I was pretty unbearable at home yesterday. For those... Read More

Hi. I’m Kim.

This is my blog that I've been writing on since January, 2004. I call myself Zoot as it's a derivative of an old childhood nickname. I used to write about my struggles to have children, but eventually I succeeded and now, I write a lot about those kids. I don't use my kid's exact names simply because if someone Googles their very unique names in the future, I don't want them stumbling upon my entries about boobsweat. I mean, would you hire someone whose Mom writes openly about such topics? NO. YOU WOULD NOT.

I love taking pictures and carry my camera (almost) everywhere I go. This means you'll see a lot of photos on this site. I also periodically post recipes I like as I've been slowly (but surely) learning to cook and I like to share my discoveries. Finally? I'm an annoying pop culture fanatic so I'll periodically ramble about Hunger Games or the latest Parks and Recreation.

I hope you like it here. If not? Please don't tell me. I cry easily.
