Yeah, I haven’t written here in a long, long time. I have made many excuses to all my friends who have asked why I haven’t written. The truth is, I just haven’t felt like it. Physically and emotionally I am drained. Life is just too much right now. It has been for awhile, but recently [...]

Had an unproductive meeting with Chas and his attorney. To say it was a joke is an understatement. Man I can’t wait til November 18th. Maybe I will finally be free of all the baggage that is Charlie Gribble. I just have a few thing to say about today’s festivities. First, what the crap is [...]

Identify this spider, please!

In: Friends, Jeeps

On a recent Jeep roadtrip with two of my bestest buddies, we happened to come across the biggest spider I have ever seen. Well, it found Amanda first. She screamed like a teenage girl, but that’s another story. But if you happen to know what kind of spider this is, please let me know. And [...]

Are we having fun yet? I sure am.

Stick with me. I swear this is a somewhat interesting story.
Labor Day weekend we took a day trip with some friends of ours. Our goal for the day was to get to Cairo, Illinois so I could take pictures of all the old abandoned buildings (Check out my flickr for these pics). Well we made [...]

Warning: this entire post is a rant. I am so mad right now I could just scream.
First I heard on the news that some pharmacists in this country are refusing to fill birth control prescriptions. WTF? Who do they think they are? I really don’t understand how they are getting away with this. I know [...]

What a great day!

I had a great day today. My folks came down and we took them for their first real Jeepin’ experience. We have taken them to the bluff behind our house, but it’s nothing more than a non-maintained county road. Today we took them on some real trails. We took them on the Short Trail and [...]

I’m glad it’s over

Well the July 3rd party is over. Thank God. This was the last year for the annual party, and I can’t say I’m sad about it. Next year we get to take a real vacation. Chas has not figured out where we’ll go yet, but I don’t care where he picks. We can go anywhere [...]

July 3rd party is tomorrow!

In: Jeeps

Sorry for being absent from this space, but my world has been VERY busy. Tomorrow is the 11th annual July 3rd party. Chas started this party years ago, and now it has evolved into our party. We celebrate the fourth and we also celebrate our anniversary which is June 30.
This year we are also going [...]

About this blog

“I'd like to have money. And I'd like to be a good writer. These two can come together, and I hope they will, but if that's too adorable, I'd rather have money.” -Dorothy Parker

"The good writing of any age has always been the product of someone's neurosis, and we'd have mighty dull literature if all the writers that came along were a bunch of happy chuckleheads."-William Styron

“I have been driven many times to my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had absolutely no other place to go.” -Abraham Lincoln

This is my attempt to share my world with you. Sometimes it's exciting—sometimes it's dull. I'll take you with me through my journey of life. Remember, this is my blog and I write whatever I am feeling at any given time. These are my opinions and nobody elses. Please leave me your comments, both good and bad. You can contact me at julie [at] gribco [dot] com anytime with ideas, comments or just to chat.
