Is it just me, or does Vera look more like a Paul? just sayn’ – b

La la la la

I’ve been meaning to post about this for a week or so now. The sleeping front with Abigail has been quite the roller coaster lately. We’re over the swaddle now – or think we are. It seems having her hands free helps her to self sooth better and get back to sleep on her own. […]

Strippn’ Ain’t Easy

Go my frame today. Then promptly covered it in goo. and scraped all the paint off. These shots were actually taken over two stripping sessions. By the looks of it, I have at least one more. I’d done this years ago (17 I think) to the frame that is now my commuter (all weather commuter […]

Paid My Dues

For time reference, this all happened yesterday. So the only thing left for the trailer ordeal was to pick up the paperwork and submit it to the Tag/Title guy to send off to Harrisburg.

One last piece of info I needed was to get the trailer weighed. The mechanic recommended a scrap metal place or another facility that actually did the inspections […]

Deck Toad

We have this toad that hangs out on our deck at night. He sits by the sliding glass doors feasting on the bugs that fly toward the light inside. He’s been around most of the summer. Not sure how he gets up on the deck. I guess he hops up the steps, but I haven’t […]

The Man Store

Went to Tractor Supply today for some parts for my trailer. Shit. If there’s a place men haveĀ  to go to “shop”, the only place should be Tractor Supply. They’ve got everything and only everything men should need – tools, parts, clothes, feed, and more tools and parts. It’s like walking into a country music […]
