It’s Wallop Time
Busy weekend for chores. Something tells me with 9 weeks left to go in this pregnancy, this is only the beginning. First Saturday morning was installing the new microwave. Though only Abigail is depicted in this staged photo, Jen’s Dad played a huge role pointing out my mistakes and adding a third and fourth hand. […]
Last Weekend
I had this whole post planned out last weekend and meant to get it up during the week, but it wasn’t one of those kinds of weeks. Now I’m trying to remember what it was and what got done, though most of it escapes me. It seemed like a lot, but maybe it was just […]

Surprise, Surprise
While working in the basement with my father a couple of weeks ago, we made a discovery. Remember the corner where the pellet stove and hearth was? Remember the debate as to whether we should take all the brick down and run the drain around the corner? Well, removing the brick proved to be a […]
