Between my sophomore and junior years of high school, I attended CSEP (Caseville Summer Enrichment Program).  My Dad was living in Pigeon, Michigan (yes, that is the real name of the town) which was not far from Caseville and he offered to pay for me to go to CSEP (and spend the summer with him…

Remember when I had all that cancer stuff going on and having to go to appointments all the time? Remember how I couldn’t wait to just have a clear calendar? Yeah, well, that didn’t last long. I had such a bunch of stuff that needed to get taken care of.  A lot of them required…

A very looooooooooooooong time in the making, I FINALLY finished my latest Dikke Dame (Dutch for fat lady) Doll.  Alice from Alice in Wonderland.  Her hair is ribbon.  The rest is all amiguru crochet with size 10 cotton thread.  I did not crochet a white rabbit for her – I like the little flocked bunny…

Growing up (and truthfully even now) basements creep me out.  Granted, none of the basements I was familiar with were “finished” basements – you know those beautiful basements with carpeting and places to sit and relax.  Nope none of that folderol in our houses.  On the other hand, all of the basements in our houses…

We used to listen to the podcast Hollywood Babble-on (Kevin Smith and Ralph Garman).  One of their regular segments was “Inappropriate Toys” which featured pictures of toys from around the world, many of which were clearly inappropriate for anyone much less children.  Obviously, I loved this segment. But I also wondered, where do people find…

You know how they say you can find anything on the internet? Well, they LIED. What you cannot find are the lyrics to “Tanz Mit Mir” from the Broadway Musical Carnival by Bob Merrill.  Hell, Wikipedia doesn’t even list the song as being part of the show! Rude. I know this particular number was in…

This morning I had the weirdest dream (and for me that’s saying something, given how weird my waking life can be my dream world has a lot of competition). Anyhow, I was at a school, in the theater department – which was really just a cafeteria with a stage; and the cast of the show…

(Rev Mother Arletta Fahrt); Terri Cotter Weitze (Sr. Tittulus Buttox); Sue Abitanta (Sr. Clitteruptus); and Kathy McGinty Radocaj (Sr. Dietus Perpetua).) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9MIS44xEvA

Even though he’s on FaceBook and Instagram there is just not a lot of information about Edull Ardo.  What I know about him?  He’s from Brazil.  Searching for “fat art” his art is all over Pinterest including my Pinterest Board – edull/https://www.pinterest.com/terriweitze/fat-art-edull/.  There is a website listed on his FaceBook page, but it leads nowhere.…

I remember when my Mom decided that I was old enough to walk to school by myself.  I was all of 6 years old!  Yay me! I was so very, very proud of myself and the took the job entrusted to me (i.e., get my little butt to school without getting killed) quite seriously. I…
