Posted on April 4, 2013 by ktclick • 3 Comments

I don’t want to be a Debbie Downer or anything, but I do feel a responsibility to those people who read (and write for) NNY Life to explain my recent lull in postings. To put it bluntly, NNY “spring” sucks. This time of year, I always struggle. I know I’m not alone. No matter how… Continue Reading

One of our favorite events we’ve found is the Wacky Chad… Continue Reading

Are you sad or are you SAD?

I really wish that someone had told me about Seasonal Affective Disorder when I first moved to northern New York. I migrated from sunny Oklahoma to Oswego, NY in 1999 to attend school at SUNY Oswego, and within a few months, homesickness (I was only 20 years old) combined with day after day of pale… Continue Reading

Waiting for Snow

Posted on January 16, 2013 by ktclick • 0 Comments

It’s the middle of January and there is no snow. None. (Because the dirty snowbanks on Arsenal St. certainly don’t count.) I NEVER thought I’d be yearning for snow in winter, but here I am, hoping and praying we get a foot. Why? 1) I stay home with little kids, and snow is free playground… Continue Reading

Diva’s FAMOUS

Posted on November 15, 2012 by ktclick • 1 Comment

So, a couple of months ago I got an email from someone at Applebee’s who had found my blog online. She said they were redecorating the Watertown location and that they were on the lookout for some photos of local events. I said, well honey, you’ve come to the right place! But then I started… Continue Reading

Hunk admiring the fish in a large seawater tank at the Strong Museum of Play in Rochester. We visited there on Spring Break on Becky’s advice.
