Twist 'n Shout: June 2008
http://carolynmcbryde.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 03, 2008. Dear airport sign makers,. ARRIVALS and DEPARTURES . is that your best stuff? So far, every time I drive to the airport, I am arriving. I may be arriving to pick up someone or arriving to drop off someone but,. Maybe they should require experience in elementary carpool signage before one gets promoted to airports. Try DROP OFF and PICK UP, and then maybe I wouldn't have to go around and around so many times before I get it right. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Twist 'n Shout: Color Committment
http://carolynmcbryde.blogspot.com/2008/08/color-committment.html
Wednesday, August 27, 2008. I think my life would be simpler if I had a signature color. If you ask me what my favorite color is, I'd probably say.it depends. Am I wearing it or decorating with it? Is it a purse or a Sharpie? These things matter to me. I still go back to my childhood of shopping for school clothes and supplies. None of this 'if the shoes fits, buy it in every color' business. We got one pair, and it had to go with everything. Think Debbie.Think pink. Love that lady in red. They're both f...

Twist 'n Shout: January 2008
http://carolynmcbryde.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 29, 2008. Does That Make Me Crazy? I like to run over dead squirrells in the road. There I've said it. Does that make me crazy? When I see a dead one in the road (not live ones, mind you) and I don't have to move into oncoming traffic, I just run over it. I wouldn't run over big animals. Dogs or cats or beavers or skunks. Well, unless Sarah S was in the car with me, and then I would hit a dead skunk because she likes the smell. Does that make her crazy? Apologies to Ryan N). Yesterday wa...

Twist 'n Shout: Stop the Paparazzi
http://carolynmcbryde.blogspot.com/2008/07/stop-paparazzi.html
Wednesday, July 02, 2008. Somebody stop the madness. I love a good photo-op as much as the next photographer. I have some candid shots of Matt and Scott that I treasure and plan to use as entertainment for the grandchildren someday. I've seen the celebrities take a camera and take photos of the paparazzi. Doesn't phase them. But let me get a photo of their mamas in bikinis on the beach, and I'm telling you this outrageous behavior will come to a complete halt. Just call us .The Stop-a-raz...

Twist 'n Shout: Many Not So Happy Returns
http://carolynmcbryde.blogspot.com/2008/05/many-not-so-happy-returns.html
Sunday, May 25, 2008. Many Not So Happy Returns. I have a love/hate relationship with Target. Love to shop there. Hate to return anything there. On September 1st, 2005 we spent Labor Day cleaning out our garage.I know that because it was the day I walked out of the Allen store vowing never to shop at Target again. So I showed them. And lugged my big heavy shelf home. In the 105 degree heat. While I was waiting for the manager (! I called my sister so I could complain out loud to someone and still be in e...

Twist 'n Shout: Bless Our Hearts
http://carolynmcbryde.blogspot.com/2008/11/bless-our-hearts.html
Tuesday, November 04, 2008. 6 month old Mark and I needed to run to the store to pick up a few baby items. His parents were out of the country on a mission trip. He and I were on our own mission trip. On our way to check out, I cruised by the stationery department. (Next to office supplies, these are some of my favorite aisles.) I was looking for the perfect card when a young woman interrupted me, "Excuse me. May I ask your opinion about something? Empty basket. No clues. I don't think I'm as concerned a...

Twist 'n Shout: February 2008
http://carolynmcbryde.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 28, 2008. I love a good road trip. Don’t even mind driving by myself every now and then. I take that opportunity to sing to my heart’s content. I sound just like the artist of the CD I’m playing! In January, I was driving the road between Lubbock and Dallas. There were no CD’s in the car and radio reception was poor. I did happen to catch part of a Carrie Underwood song as I left Abilene, but it quickly faded. That concert went nowhere fast. Maybe the next trac would be of her singing ...

Twist 'n Shout: If You Give a Lizard a Magazine...
http://carolynmcbryde.blogspot.com/2008/09/if-you-give-lizard-magazine.html
Monday, September 15, 2008. If You Give a Lizard a Magazine. 3 Make the bed. 4 Oatmeal and juice. 8 Gut the pantry and start over. 9 Put every single photo in an album or frame. 10 Organize absolutely all of the clutter in my life. It has already been a good day and it is only 9 am. This morning I woke up with a mental list of things to do. The longer the list grew, the more convinced I was that I needed to pray out loud before I did anything else. I think Beth Moore wants to shout, "Glory! Something hap...
