I go to one of the local casinos in Biloxi, MS or with a group of friends from work. I really enjoy this for a lot of reasons, but the two main reasons are there’s nothing sweeter than money won, and I love the gamesmanship of trying to outthink your opponent. The most popular game today of course is Texas Hold ‘em, but I play a lot of the games such as 7-card stud, Omaha 8 or better, etc. The poker boom has created tons of interest and lots of action in the poker rooms across America. Honestly, when I travel for work, I can always find a game. There are so many nuances to the game such as value betting, bluffing, reading your opponents, stealing pots, re-stealing pots, etc. That’s what makes poker unique, while you can play the same game for years; it’s never really the same game. It’s a great way to spend time with your friends. We have local poker tournaments and clubs with actual seasons. All of the information listed above is why Poker is my favorite hobby.

I’m an engineer in the aerospace industry and the office dress code is business casual, but skews a little more towards “casual.” Generally, I like to dress up a little bit from the average so that I present a professional image. I also live in a hot climate, so I need to dress appropriately for the weather. I chose tan linen pants with a loose leg. This pant choice suited the climate (southern California during the summer) while maintaining a professional image. On top, I wore a navy blue tank top. To keep the look on the conservative side, I topped the outfit with a black cardigan. Additionally, I wore black sandals with a stacked wooden sole. The slightly heavier shoes balance out the weight of the pants. I tend to keep accessories simple, so I chose some simple silver earrings I found in western Ireland while on vacation.

My mom made these delicious tacos. She first boils Idaho potatoes than mashes them. In order to make the taco she puts the potato mixed with mozzarella cheese inside a corn tortilla. The corn tortilla is folded as if it was a quesadilla and is fried until the tortilla is brown and crispy. You do not need a deep fryer a simple pan will work. After they are fried my mom lets them cool. While the tacos are cooling lettuce, tomatoes, and onions are cut. They are stuffed in to the tacos. They are served with homemade salsa. This is a delicious vegetarian dish. It is probably high in fat but biting into these delicious tacos made my night. My brother eats them as if they were hash browns with ketchup instead of the tomatoes and salsa. What I like about these tacos is that they inexpensive and easy to make. The salsa is also pretty easy to make just a couple of tomatoes and Serrano chilies. With some lemonade or any drink they make a great meal.

If my professors and friends can be believed, I’m a very good writer who has a good chance of being published at some point. I’m inclined to believe them because the friends I show my writing to are the friends who are well-read and know how to express themselves in an intelligent, literate manner and my professors aren’t in the business of flattering egos and going easy on you for fear of bruising your self-esteem. I’ve been writing since I was fourteen, and after sixteen years of practice and making an effort to apply what I’ve learned about becoming a better writer I’ve polished up my skills enough that I can write circles around more than a few other popular authors and considering how much better my writing is than some currently popular young adult authors I’d like to think my chances of being published are very good. Having ADHD, there’s always a surplus of energy that needs to go somewhere, especially when I’m sitting down and need to stay still (and being an adult involves a lot of having to sit quietly for long periods of time, unfortunately). To keep from driving those around me nuts with my fidgeting, I knit, crochet, and cross stitch and tend to get lots of compliments on my work. At the moment, I’m working on taking pictures of some of what I’ve done and I’m going to be putting it up for sale on Etsy in the near future.

My parents rented a recreational vehicle and the four of us packed up a small portion of our belongings for a 5 week cross-country trip. We were really excited and we planned everything that we would do before we left Massachusetts. On the way however, we relaxed from our itinerary and we went to do or see any local attraction that sounded good to us at the time. One of the best tools we had was a KOA catalog where we could roam pretty much where we pleased without fear of trying to find a campsite. Having a laptop with wifi connection is good but there are plenty of gaps out there and it’s best to have a hard copy of something as a backup. We did go to every state except Oregon and Washington. After the second week of the vacation it got a bit rough with us being crammed into the smaller living space, but after a few days it wore off and we enjoyed the vacation.

Yep these are my kids oldest one is 26 and just graduated college in anthropology and works at a drug store I don’t know if she is going to use it but it’s what she liked and graduated from she says she wants to go for her masters in year from now and she’d like to go teach at the community college. The second is 19 she works at another drug store we went to Mexico this July together and loved it I went to go visit family so it was a fantastic time. She moved out before we went on our trip I thought she was going to back out because she was concentrating on her moving out than on her trip I certainly wasn’t going to waist all that money. She comes to eat supper on her break which is a minute from here so it’s not bad Eric my youngest is always playing video games he will be 15 this Saturday but every time a holiday such as Christmas or his birthday he always thinks up things that he wants and it’s always impossible to get! But for reason we always get it for him I know he’s the baby. This time he wants a lap top my husband works a pawn shop and he can get deals but he said it’s hard to tell this time. my son is the type where everything is in his room has to be in order or he’ll go nuts it doesn’t’ have to be clean just pick up and in order when I fold his clothes and put them in his room, he stops what he is doing and go put up his clothes I couldn’t ask for more than that he does that in the living room too when something isn’t right he goes to fix it.

My current occupation is teaching my grandchildren all the wonders of country life. We spend our days exploring the woods, learning about trees, bugs, rocks, and going fishing, camping, collecting berries for the freezer, raising a garden and canning the vegetables. I teach them the different species of trees and wood, what is best for a pretty fire and what is best for a cooking fire, and then we gather wood and cook our meals over the fire. They learn how to catch fish and clean them, what animal’s tracks look like, and what area different animals like to live in. They make sculptures out of clay with their hands; build sand castles and tree forts. The summer days include learning to swim in a pond, canoeing, and walking in a creek. In the winter we fill birdfeeders, go sledding, and build snow sculptures. This is the most enjoyable job I have ever had and I am paid to do it. I won’t get rich this way, but the long term rewards are worth every minute I spend with the children.

I live in Ooty. This is my home town. I like to live my whole life in Ooty. This is because the place is very cool to live in. I need not use a refrigerator or a fan or an air conditioner here. There will be a slight snow fall every morning and a mist covered time every evening. In any other place we can go out only with a shirt or a t-shirt. But I can use a jerk all the time. I can always wear a show and even wear caps and other dress materials which keep me safe from cold. I can use food materials which are too hot also. In that climate that hot food will be like a delicious dish we like. More than this all the days are short here and the nights are long. Due to long and cool nights I can sleep for a long time with two to three blankets on me.

Last weekend my husband and I took our boys, ages one and two, to the local race track. It had been a hot week, and an even hotter weekend. Temperatures were in the 90 degree range, and we were looking for a way to stay cool but get out of the house (we are so happy to have air conditioning). There had been rain in the latter part of the week, but it had looked like it was going to stay dry for the evening. The kids love racecars, so we piled ourselves in the minivan and off to the races we went! The rain earlier in the week had made the dirt track just perfect for racing. The boys sat so nicely like content little men through the whole night. There were only two races left to finish off the night and it began to rain. A light shower fell for only about three minutes, but they ended the race program. We were all disappointed that it ended early, but at least the rain had cooled us off a bit. We all slept great that night.

I’m here to tell you about my day. I have rheumatoid arthritis; it is an autoimmune disease where the body attacks itself. With “RA” come the stiffness, pain, fever, and fatigue along with other symptoms. When I wake up in the morning, I get up slowly because my body doesn’t want to move. I’ve had this disease since 1992, so it’s no stranger to me. I’ve learned how to adjust with medications that help suppress my immune system, which helps my body to fight the RA. Today I really did not feel like getting out of bed. I have 2 beagles and a German shepherd. Today they wanted to sleep in too (for a change). I decided to get up and start the day, thinking of things I needed or wanted to do. I’ve always been a stay at home mom, and there are no benefits for us stay at home moms for the future. Well, my break is over, back to work.
