A beautiful odd couple!

Dashund plays catch by himself???

2010-09-18T11:15:00.001-04:00

This is a first for me. I don't know I think it is an expensive baby sitting tool for the owners of this dog then again it is so cute on how much fun this pup is having. Not sure about this one.

Sweet lazy life - the sloth...

2010-08-17T14:19:00.001-04:00

I'm used to seeing these creatures in cartoons but never have I had an opportunity to see a real one. They are sweet!

Star Wars according to a 3 year old...

Apparently she's only seen the movie once and wasn't coached for this video...

What it means to be a good Dad - Funny Video

2010-08-05T10:40:00.002-04:00

This is absolutely hilarious! What was a great idea turned out to be not so great in the end!

Me and Obama

2010-07-25T16:06:00.001-04:00

Seriously, I think this photos is hilarious! Of course - it's me at the White House in the Oval Office negotiating a serious deal while the President poses for the camera...Ok, not exactly I was at Madame Tussaud's in NYC and this was a picture that just had to be done! Some of those wax figurines are amazingly life like but some - - either they melted or were having a bad paint colour day.

Reunions and Cupcakes

2010-07-24T17:00:00.008-04:00

The other day I went to the Science Museum and was running around like a little kid when I heard the unmistakable voice of an old high school friend. I didn't even see her face but quietly said Caroline? She looked up we were as giddy as we were in Mr. Shane's chemistry class. It was one of those moments where your voices go up an octave, "Oh my God how are you" we are so caught up in seeing

BP Fish Oil Plus

2010-07-23T19:15:00.004-04:00

This is hilarious but again serious and brings a little lightheartedness to the developing events that are happening in the Gulf of Mexico right now.

My Hotel Room Salad

2010-07-22T23:56:00.001-04:00

My camera skills although fairly proficient are lacking in this post. You see I had a nice Canon that died on me and as it turns out it's (because of a class action law suite) it's cheaper to buy a new one than to invest in fixing it so...I am stuck with my very old 4 mega-pixels no optical zoom (at least in my opinion) camera until I find one that I am happy with and that I can afford!I was in

Validation

2010-07-19T16:24:00.001-04:00

I will slow down on my You Tube videos soon I hope but I just feel the need to share. Another great short starting and this one features TJ Thyne from Bones fame. Have a look and enjoy!Cheers!Diane

My Name is Lisa

Ok, another youtube short about the trials and tribulations of a forgetful single parent.

One of the best sounds in the world

2010-07-10T08:16:00.006-04:00

It's been a while since I've posted but sometimes life takes over a little bit and you need to pay attention to that first. Here is a cute little video that I found this morning. Nothing better than hearing children laughing I think it will put a smile on your face.Cheers!Diane

FreeRice

2009-10-24T20:42:00.002-04:00

I am making the assumption that most people have seen this site called FreeRice.com no one should have to go hungry. Answer a few trivia questions and for every question you get right - they donate a grain of rice. Come back often to this site. Use it as a time waster. Its very simple and you are doing something kind for someone else. Lecture overlet them eat rice!Cheers!Diane

I'm happy I'm alive

2009-10-07T18:55:00.006-04:00

OK I think we all need to tear a chapter out of this guy's book of life. I saw Hasya Yoga when I was in India a couple of years ago and I laughed so hard just because they were laughing. It was pretty cool!Cheers!Diane

Finding Me Time

2009-08-02T14:50:00.006-04:00

Like everyone out there, we all lead extremely busy lives with way too much to do and way to little time to do it. Family members may (or may not be) on our cases with the "you promised" or "why don't you spend any time with me" or "why is x more important than me" (you can fill in the blank. I've have been going through many of these scenarios a lot since - well since I was born and

Playing for change

2009-06-09T19:11:00.003-04:00

I just love this video - its just one of those projects that makes me wish I was a part of it. I hope you all enjoy!Cheers!Diane

The cat in the hat for baby boomers

2009-06-08T09:23:00.003-04:00

What an unbelievable place. I am piled high with tea and yak socks and can hardly wait to go over the more than 900 photos I took over the past few weeks. So things started off a little rough with the airlines but it was worth it in

The lower market and the Toy Train

2006-12-29T04:37:00.001-05:00

They weren’t kidding when they said they had a toy train! It’s tiny and cute. I loved the sound of the steam whistle and although it’s not like riding in those comfortable cars in the Heathrow express, it was like being a kid all over again. The lower market was a hidden treasure for sure. Down a steep and winding hill there is a plethora of vendors selling

North Indian Wildlife

2006-12-23T03:07:00.001-05:00

Well I saw a Bengal Tiger and there really is no need for me to get up close and personal with one. They are beautiful creatures but are serious carnivores. Didn’t manage to get a clear picture but I didn’t really want to either. I’d be afraid that I would get so wrapped up in the picture taking that the little fellow (about six feet of him on all fours) would have me for lunch. My first day at the Windamere hotel started with a south Indian breakfast called aloo puri. Which was essentially curried potatoes and fried bread. YUM!

Kolcutta Airport Departure Terminal

2006-12-15T00:42:00.001-05:00

My drive back to the Kolcutta airport was the only sites I managed to see in this city this time round. To my surprise I saw many hammer and sickles along with many people waiting for I don’t know what. We drove through what my driver told me was the Bangladeshi refugee housing area. Not too many houses to see really a lot of poorly built shacks definitely without running water or electricity.

Lucky me

2006-12-14T11:39:00.001-05:00

I had showered, dressed, eaten and re-packed everything so that all I had to do was jump up from my wake up call and rush to the waiting car to take me to the airport. At 8:30 as I requested. I received my wake up call only to say that my flight had been changed and I had two extra days to sleep yippee!!!! I couldn’t tell you how many hours I slept but it was

So about my trip…

2006-12-12T00:34:00.001-05:00

Wow! India is a spectacular place and man does Kolcutta ever smell bad but there is a charm about that too! I landed in Kolcutta at about 4:00 am and my hotel forgot to pick me up – wasn’t told to pick me up - - who knows? Point is I was left alone one beautiful Indian morning at the Kolcutta airport being stared at by many, many men. I waited patiently

Oh what a trip!

2006-12-11T08:30:00.001-05:00

Well I am going to start by saying I never want to travel British Airways again. That’s it they are not getting anymore airtime from me. After speaking with many people they have had the same reaction I have and well they don’t need any more publicity. Ooh, I'm having a real bad day!

I'm getting excited!

2006-12-09T20:00:00.001-05:00

Off on a tour to India will have to write details when I get back as I do not have email access. This is tough but I'll find a way. Taking lots of photos and meeting many people and the real experience hasn't started as yet. So many things to do but anxiety isn't setting in is that good or bad? Who knows maybe I've exhausted the adrenals! Cheers

My best friend

2006-11-23T22:09:00.001-05:00

I am getting super excited for my upcoming travels. I went to the Indian High Commission today to pick up my visa yay! It was quite the process. You walk into this tiny room that is horribly organized and you hope that the person who entered the room before you will let you know your place in the queue before some unsuspecting granny tells you off in Hindi. Nevertheless I managed not of course

Sunday: The day of rest???

2006-11-19T10:45:00.001-05:00

Not here! Just came back from walking - yes walking to the grocery store (my life is so exciting!). I figure I should get a little exercise as I have been noticing a few things getting a little - ahem - tight in all the wrong places. I have a bathtub to finish caulking, a pile of laundry. I promised my baby nice a nice loaf of homemade bread. I also promised her homemade soap and lip gloss.

Sick day - ugh...

2006-10-23T13:08:00.001-04:00

Well, I'm laid up in bed with a terrible cold today and no voice!. My family and friends are enjoying it a lot. I can't even say I sound sexy like those 1-900 numbers. I just sound awful!I spoke to a girlfriend of mine in Dubai this morning who told me that Ramadan ends today. I bet the folks over there are going to be partying like its 1999 as Prince's song goes. Wish I was there but

My Official Website

2006-10-20T17:36:00.001-04:00

You are probably wondering who Osama is right? He is the designer of My Website . Have a look and drop a note in my guestbook even just to say - hey.I knew I was going to have more things to say... I always do!Cheers!

My First Blog!

2006-10-20T16:21:00.001-04:00

Wow, I can't tell you how weird it is to be so connected on-line. First I have a new website (thanks to Osama) and now I have a blogspot again thanks to my friend Osama.I have to admit, I have no idea what to write and how often I should write and well - what I should write about but I am fairly good at talking about nothing and arriving at something at some point or another so I'll do my
