“Why, Mr. Anderson? Why? Why do you persist?”

CJ was diagnosed with terminal cancer last January. They gave him 4 – 6 months at best. Eleven months later… He’s old. He has troubles like an old dog. Two days ago he couldn’t walk. He could stand, but he couldn’t walk. He had no coordination. His legs wouldn’t do what they were supposed to. […]

My Precious

Abigail hates naps. She pretty much hates sleeping in general. Why she’d rather cry to no end than sleep, is beyond me. Saturday morning I got out for a ride with my friend Buddy at Downingtown.

Tumbler

Came home Friday night to an eerily quiet house. Wasn’t supposed to be that way. Jen, Abigail and Jen’s Mom were supposed to be there. Gretchen was in her crate. There was a pretzel on the floor. Something wasn’t right. I called and left a message on Jen’s phone as I searched the house for […]

Conspiring Against Us

Between Abigail up a couple of times and the dogs up early today already sucks. It was my plan to shower and get out of here early. Now that Jen and the baby are finally sleeping I’m too afraid I’ll wake them. – b

Abigail’s Ornaments

So the solution for keeping the tree safe(r) from Abigail was to give her access to “Abigail Ornaments” along the bottom. “Abigail Ornaments” are simply soft or unbreakable things she can take off and play with. So far the distraction has worked pretty well, though we’ve decided to wait till the last day for presents. […]
