As mentioned previously, we were unable to afford to send cards to what had become a list of about 140 people, including some who will see this. I didn’t finish an online card until yesterday, and didn’t yet get through … Continue reading

Speaking of Snow…
The downstairs neighbors are morons. They insist on the end spot so they can get out easily when it snows, then leave almost a full car length between them and end of driveway, making it hard for us to park … Continue reading

Not Official But…

So Much to Say!

Gusher
If there’s one thing I can do with vigor it’s bleed. There was one final truck, half full. I went on that with another guy, to blow through it and be done. Turned out it had completely trashed rollers. Not … Continue reading

I Got Sumpin To Say

Where does the day go? No birthdays today. Been turning the house upside-down looking for two lost cups. The kids are efficient that way. Been cleaning cabinets and purging what’s expired and making sure we have no more bugs, after … Continue reading
