Just a Hello

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 1 Jan

This morning I was up early to go see my sister and her family two and a half hours away. I didn’t get to see them for Christmas because the kids were sick. We had lunch with them, and opened presents. They got me a glass bottle...

Funeral Conundrum

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 30 Dec

My dad has to make a big decision, and it’s not one I would want to have to make. Two funerals are being held on the same day, and he has to decide which one to attend. Both families asked him to speak. The first (Edwin) is the...

Do you remember the Bookmobile?

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 29 Dec

Growing up, our closest public library was about 20 minutes away, which isn’t far at all. However, during the summer, the Bookmobile would park itself right next to the police station, (a mile from our house) and you could just...

Are you a gift bag person, or a gift wrapper?

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 28 Dec

Well, are you a gift bag user, or a wrapper? I used to wrap everyone’s presents, and I’d get really creative in how I adorned the paper. Two years ago, I just got weary of it, and went to all gift bags. As you can see, on...

How would you punish these Christmas package dumpers?

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 27 Dec

Some of you might have read these two stories I’m referring to, regarding Fed Ex and Amazon. Police responded to reports of packages being dumped in the woods, and found scores of packages from Fed Ex. After investigating, they...

A Christmas Thwarted

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 26 Dec

Well, it didn’t turn out to be the Christmas I planned on, but hopefully next week I’ll get to see the people in this picture (my sister’s family) since all the kids were sick yesterday. This was taken on Christmas Eve, and by...

Christmas Eve Happenings

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 24 Dec

I had Christmas Eve lunch at my dad and his wife’s house. The lady that has been staying with them for a few months was there, and she helped Diana make homemade pizza. It was too much food for me. Afterwords, I gave my dad his...

What will you miss about the Christmas season?

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 23 Dec

Yes, I realize Christmas is not over. I wish the season would last a little longer though. Amyra (my niece, pictured) is already campaigning to go see more lights before they take them down around town after Christmas. I guess...

She didn’t like her Christmas present, and told me.

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 22 Dec

My dad always tells me if I don’t like something he gets me, to let him know because he said he’s fine with taking it back, or getting me something else and giving my original present to someone else. Maybe it’s because everything...

I love me some…

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 20 Dec

Candles! What is something inconsequential that just perks you up? I got a little spoiled because this past year I got some candles to review, and they were amazing. I know @NJChicaa has talked about her love of Yankee Candles. I...

Cover the Eyes

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 19 Dec

A few weeks ago my sister and brother-in-law took their kids to Disney World in Florida for their Christmas gift to the kids. A family asked my BIL if he could take some pictures of them, and then offered to return the favor for...

I was watching the local morning news yesterday morning, and on the segment, “What Caught Our Eye”, one of the news anchors mentioned an online video she saw of a woman making Hot Dr. Pepper, a drink her family made every...

What is your favorite animal?

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 14 Dec

I love a flamingo, right @GardenGerty ? This picture was taken at the Animal Kingdom at Disney World this week when my sister and her family visited there for Christmas. They made sure to get a picture of the flamingos for me....

Have you ever had a dream about a Mylotter?

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 12 Dec

Last night I dreamed one of our single members of Mylot got married, and I hitchhiked to her wedding (no, I would never hitchhike). When I looked at her gift registry, they were all books (she’s a notorious...

A cool thing my parents used to do for Christmas.

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 10 Dec

Neither one of my parents ever really wanted anything for Christmas. I mean, if anything, they would have enjoyed books, but they had plenty of those. Our church happens to be close to a Christian college, so we’d always get...

Christmas Activities

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 9 Dec

My sister is an overachiever. I say that affectionately and truthfully. They don’t just go see the lights one night; they go to 7 various lighted parks/church displays/light festivals in a a period of ten days. She lives in the...

Inflatables and Kind Buckets

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 8 Dec

After my Christmas card theft (recap: post office employees thought my thick pop up Christmas cards meant gift cards and stole them and other customer’s mail), I decided to deliver the cards in person to the people who live...

A Warning For You

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 6 Dec

So Monday I went to the post office and mailed a few Christmas cards. They were pop ups, therefore thick. Post office considers those packages. That means I can track them. Long story short, after talking to the post office...

I couldn’t believe my ears.

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 4 Dec

I walked into my dad’s house about a month ago, and I could hear music in his office. Diana (his wife), hurriedly told me to get into his office so I could hear it. Not knowing what “it” was, I began to hear a familiar, pretty...

Do you mind this way of saving money?

Amber @AmbiePam (94507) • United States 3 Dec

My dad’s dryer broke down so he went to replace it. A Black Friday sale was being held, but one of them had a small dent in the back so my dad took that one and got $150 more off the price. You not only can’t tell where the tiny...
