Home Improvements

We’ve only been in our house for 10 years, but it already looks and feels pretty shabby. I guess that’s what happens when you have two dogs and a very active child running around almost constantly! At any rate, I would love to be able to make some improvements this year. It would be [...]

Laid Up

I posted a couple days ago about tweaking my ankle while jogging. Unfortunately, it hasn’t gotten any better, even though I’ve been icing it and resting. Plus, now it’s noticeably swollen when compared to my other ankle, so it might even be getting worse! I might have to go to the doctor if this doesn’t [...]

Printing Pictures

I spent most of today sorting through and printing a bunch of digital photos that we’ve taken over the past year and a half or so. I had half an album left over from the last time I did this, and was amazed to see how much I’ve aged in that short time!!! I look [...]

I’m jealous

I’m sick of the utterly crappy weather around here and am totally jealous of people who can afford vacation homes in Hawaii, Florida, and other warm locales. Wouldn’t it be awesome to be able to use the word “winter” as a verb, as in “We’re going to winter in the Keys, see you in the [...]

New career?

I’ve just had my hours at work cut significantly, and now my family is facing the same economic struggles as everyone else. We were doing fine up until this month, which just goes to show how quickly things can change. Anyway, if things don’t pick up again soon, it looks like I’m going to have [...]
