15 kinds of parties I'd like to throw

Some of these require time, money, or space that I just don't have...but a girl can dream!

  1. An all night murder mystery party. The game would go long into the night with lots of drama unfolding.
  2. Puppy party. Just lots of puppies everywhere!
  3. Petting zoo party. Why are these only for kids?
  4. Bouncy house party. Lots of bouncy houses!
  5. Escape the room. If I could make my own, that would be the most fun.
  6. Baking party. Just bake a ton of stuff and eat a ton of stuff.
  7. Mermaid party. You can learn to swim with a mermaid tail and there have to be a ton of mermaid foods that I could figure out.
  8. Groundhog Day party. Who couldn't use a party in February that isn't Valentine's Day?
  9. Fairy tale party. Costumes, stories, and definitely games.
  10. Candyland party. This would certainly involve a life size Candyland path and you have to answer candy-themed questions or make candy or eat candy to progress to different parts of the party.
  11. Space party. So definitely food and decorations that are space themed, but I also imagine some trivia and star gazing.
  12. Scooby Doo party. People will be divided into the different gang roles and then each gang will compete to figure out the mystery that I lay out for them.
  13. Ugly sweater party. These just seem like dorky, fun parties with tons of photo opportunities.
  14. Pajama party. Adults can have fun sleepovers too!
  15. Scavenger hunt. Ages ago I planned a big one, but timing never worked out.

15 things you'll think about during your dad's latest hospital stay

This is meant to be a related piece to "15 things to do in your dad's hospital room," "15 Things You Find in Your Dad's Hospice Room," and "15 Things You Find When You Clean Out Your Dad’s Apartment" .  The Christmas lights at the nurse's station that should really have been switched for saccharine cupids by now What team decided to hang up a clearly labeled DRAFT safety sign Who comes up with the aliases they seem to use for trauma patients and how they decided on Redstone for your dad That his skin either looks like a bruised elephant or like sickeningly conflicting colors of thin paper mache Where you can possibly get food--you're shaky The patient in the ER somewhere with a lot of ammo, but no gun, or so they say Why the staff is being so happily loud and swearing...it feels discordant The used bandaid and gauze that are left on the floor of his ER room as he moves to his hospital room...the last proof he was there Having to do this a...

15 facts about my dad

Just been thinking about some lighthearted facts I know about my dad lately. When he was young, he had a goldfish named Lysander He introduced me to Star Trek At Christmas, he would tear up at It's a Wonderful Life He used to send me articles from his Yahoo email account that he thought I'd like We used to play a game called "Nightmare" where he would lie down and we'd jump around (and sometimes on) him He would clip possible recipes for us to try out of newspapers and magazines We bought him a Paddington Bear to take on trips because we feared he'd be lonely and he always took it He had teddy bears for three different holidays We once had such a hilariously difficult time building a gingerbread house that when some frosting ended up on the counter, I plopped a gumdrop on it and we laughed until we cried He and his sister were born about 11 months apart We would try recipes from Top Chef He kept gifts I made him, even when they weren't great At Christmas, ...
