well, hey!

If you are here, then you are probably either lost, or someone played a joke on you. but no matter, come on and read.
welcome
this is my life
and i dont like using the shift key, so i dont do a lot of proper punctuation...i also use those three little dots...elipses i think they are called, way too much
first I will tell you where the name of this off the wall blog came from.

my son.

i guess i could leave it at that and have you wondering or disappointed, but I will go ahead and let you in on the rest of the story.

One day we were driving around...heaven only knows where, and I hear in the back seat my son say these words.
'just how i like it...nice and boogery'
well being any decent mother i was very curious as to what prompted such very honest but nontheless odd words.
I looked back to see my son, mirror in hand, inspecting the inside of his nose.

a moment went by and he was still looking, so I had to ask,
"~Alex, why is it a good thing your nose is boogery?

~Uhm because that means it is working

~and how do you figure that honey

~because the boogers mean your nose has trapped bad things and kept them out...like snotty little webs

~good point, i am glad your nose is nice and boogery."

And so I thought for a second, if i ever start a blog, it will be called 'just how i like it nice and boogery' because, although you never really think about it, you want your nose to have boogers...and you want your life to be full of looking at things and appreciating the small things...knowing it is humming along how you like it....

  1. Loved it! Can't wait to read the next post.
    Kinda makes me analyze myself ... suddenly I am thankful and aware of simple things like saliva, boogers, sweat, and bile..... What would we do without those precious things???

    Don't even get me started on tears and ear wax!

    Nice to start the new year with a new perspective.
    Thanks.

  2. Ha ha ha-- It's great! And you know what? You and I have always thought alike, I started a blog yesterday too! Weird, huh? Although I didn't get very far.... www.amyshomesweetschool.blogspot.com
    I'm still trying to figure it out & my computer stinks--- it's has nothing to catch the "boogers" so it's a mess
