Some of you may know that I have five children and generally lots of help from my other half. Recently, my husband has been really busy with his business and [...] http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/vintage-ads/whiskey-196-style/ http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/vintage-ads/whiskey-196-style/#comments Tue, 02 Mar 2010 22:18:05 +0000 Michelle http://www.oneofakindwis.com/?p=2069 http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/vintage-ads/whiskey-196-style/feed/ 8 So the 2010 Winter Olympics are over- football season is done and there are still 3 months of winter left if you live up North. By up North- I mean Wisconsin, Minnesota, the U.P. and of course Canada- the motherland. I know it’s not all about watching television and staying indoors.

Normally, I can restrain from frivolous purchases, but I had to have this vintage 1974 Barbie Olympic Ski [...] http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/entertainment/movies/the-worse-cary-grant-movie-ever.../ http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/entertainment/movies/the-worse-cary-grant-movie-ever.../#comments Wed, 17 Feb 2010 03:32:59 +0000 Michelle http://www.oneofakindwis.com/?p=2027 http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/entertainment/movies/the-worse-cary-grant-movie-ever.../feed/ 8 I am sure there are a few people out there who don’t like the actor Cary Grant, but I have never met them. As of  last week, I could honestly say I had never seen a Cary Grant movie I didn’t like, that was until I watched the 1952 comedy Monkey Business starring Cary Grant, [...] http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/vintage-jewelry/baby-bracelets/ http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/vintage-jewelry/baby-bracelets/#comments Fri, 12 Feb 2010 02:25:13 +0000 Michelle http://www.oneofakindwis.com/?p=2012 http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/vintage-jewelry/baby-bracelets/feed/ 12 I am writing this as my head throbs and aches… I have had a head cold now for over a week. Every morning I wake up thinking this is the day I am going to turn the corner and yet nothing happens to make me feel any better… Two weeks ago, while I was knee deep [...] http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/blog/hibernation/ http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/blog/hibernation/#comments Tue, 02 Feb 2010 21:40:01 +0000 Michelle http://www.oneofakindwis.com/?p=2001 http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/blog/hibernation/feed/ 12 I am happy to say I am done with all the tasks and chores that January brings after pushing through and just doing what needed to be done. At times I felt overwhelmed and I wanted to hibernate like a bear. Or at least crawl back under the covers and put off for a little [...] http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/entertainment/movies/almost-vintage-the-movies-of-1990/ http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/entertainment/movies/almost-vintage-the-movies-of-1990/#comments Wed, 20 Jan 2010 21:43:08 +0000 Michelle http://www.oneofakindwis.com/?p=1948 http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/entertainment/movies/almost-vintage-the-movies-of-1990/feed/ 10 Before I started this post on movies that came out twenty years ago, I tried to guess what movies came out that year without peeking on the internet. To do so, I thought of where I was in 1990 and what I might have seen at the movie theaters. In 1990 I would have graduated from [...] http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/blog/facebook-way-back-week-fonzi-cake/ http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/blog/facebook-way-back-week-fonzi-cake/#comments Thu, 14 Jan 2010 00:30:28 +0000 Michelle http://www.oneofakindwis.com/?p=1981 http://www.oneofakindwis.com/2010/blog/facebook-way-back-week-fonzi-cake/feed/ 10 Some of you on Facebook may be scratching your heads wondering why all your “friends” are looking younger then ever or at least why their profile pictures are looking younger. Another FB meme has been going around this week and this one reads: Its WAY BACK WEEK! RETRO RETRO RETRO RETRO.

I could bore you with a long list of chores that happen the first month of the year but I won’t.  Many of them having to do with being an accountant and doing business taxes. YAWN! Anyway- I have a [...]
