Blog - Stuffed with Aloha

Because bubbles.

7/29/2014

Don't you just love The Google? I did not think I'd actually find a "Happy Bubble" pic! Hooray for The Google!

So, I have been thinking that because you know, bubbles, I should post something on the blog. So I've been sitting here in my CoW (Cave of Wonder in case you forgot) trying to think of what I could write.

I got nuthin. Seriously, I couldn't think of a single thing to write. I mean, teenagers annoy tremendously during the summer, but who wants to hear about that? Spouses always get on nerves, what else is new? I turn forty in less than a week, but who really cares about that? (Not me truthfully, because you know, bubbles.)

Anyway, just wanted to post a pic of the happy bubble & a link to my Kana Girl's page to get you to see the latest pieces I dropped off at the restaurant.

So until I think of something else to babble about, go blow some bubbles!
Aloha,
~Clare

Absolute nonsense

7/22/2014

Feeling whatever, so I decided to play with The Google's image search.

First I searched for "exploding carnivorous toaster" & found this:

Thank you The Google for a skunk in a toaster search

Then I found this in a search for "flying river rat":

The Google let's you know where you are

Finally, I found this in a search for "forty years of crazy":

The Google...

That about sums it up kids. Aloha until later, ~Clare

Sometimes....

7/21/2014

...it's best to let go
...you just have to stop
...you feel like crying
...you just have to scream
...flinging glitter is not just messy
...chocolate does cure what ails you
...deep breathes don't help
...talking about it helps ease the pain
...ignoring the problem does make it (them) go away
...going with your gut feels wrong
...there is no correct answer
...bubbles hold no magic
...the pot of gold shows up at the start of the rainbow
...you have so much frustration that you just start talking or writing with no real reason, no real plan & it works
...you just need to free fall to figure out which direction you want to go

Sometimes things are just things & there is no deeper meaning, no hidden problem, no inner turmoil. Sometimes it just is.

Aloha hugs,
~Clare

Back again!

Not going to promise this won't get rambly out of control.

Mixed feelings

7/14/2014

Just a quick pop in to confirm my continued existence.

As the post title says, I have mixed feelings about today. You see, it is my mother-in-law's birthday, which always makes me happy. However, as you may remember, she was moving to Texas (curse you lone star state!).

That actually happened last week & today is the first time in many years that we have not been able to celebrate her birthday with her. Which makes me sad.

Anyway, I'm doing my best not to get too sad, which today has included watching 'Harry Potter' movies (again) & just hanging out with the Squab & Chicken. The Stork is at work after a week off (thank you Monday!)

Well, I have to go start dinner now. I'll check back later in the week, because things, good things have been happening.

Until then, aloha my loves!

Has it ever OCCURRED to you...

that weirdos come in all shapes & sizes & not just dressed as daredevils with female chicken entourages? Yup that's right folks, I just made a Muppet reference. Deal with it.

"The Google" is unstuck & loaned me this picture

This bugs me...

"Maybe 'The Google' is stuck."
-The Stork

I wanted to post an image I found in a Google image search, because I'm bored. But I cannot get the image to enlarge so I can see it better. I've even completely logged out of the internet & logged back in.

Oh well, I guess I'll have to post one of my own pics then.

Yup, that's lil' ol' me (circa 1985?) Wasn't I a stinkin' cutie? Yes I realize I look a little bit mad, truth is I might have been. Honestly I only remember the shirt. I loved that shirt.

Okay, that's all.

Aloha hugs until later,
~Clare

Whatever wednesday

“It isn't procrastination if you put it off right away”

I like that quote. It suits my current mood of not wanting to come up with a specific blog topic.

I would however like to mention that today, after four Twixless years, the Squab has finally gotten his braces off. Which means we can now indulge in our favorite candy bar (Twix in case you didn't catch that). Hooray for Twix!

Anyway, my mother-in-law is leaving in a few days & I have a couple of things I need to get together for her to take with her. That & I am being an Angry Aardvark (see picture below) because certain male members of my household (read: human & feline) won't stop interrupting my work!

Until next time m'dearies!
