Fn Dog

Got in the trash last night around 4:30am. At 5:30 am whatever she ate wasn’t working too well in her belly and she had to get out. Not as much sleep as I would have liked the night before a trip to cold north woods. – b

Mind Erasure

I swear Dirt Wolf is a mind erasure. Things were getting foggy. Lots of stuff completely forgotten. After a few days of absence I’m clearer – more level headed. Hmmm. Time to get back to that great taste. – b

Dead Again

The bouncer is dead again. You may remember the original configuration died last winter a month or so after we got it. Then we resurrected it in a new format earlier this fall. Now it’s dead for real. I suspect the dog or cat punctured it, but it’s definitely a hole. Not sure what we’ll […]

New Garage Doors

Bill came down to help install the new garage doors last weekend. I think it took somewhere around 16 hours to to get both doors installed. It was pretty annoying. The instructions were unnecessarily difficult to follow. They also made everything sound more dangerous than it was. Took a few more hours on Sunday to […]

Lauren’s Birthday

Had a little party for Lauren’s birthday a few weeks ago. Just enough and just the right people to make it fun. See the pictures and all the fun in the gallery here. – b

Yesterday

First day of winter for 2013 was 60° F. Momma and Abigail made gingerbread cookies in the morning. The can shelf that was supposed to take an hour or two, took all day. Meanwhile, somewhere along the way, the focus on the camera on my phone started to work again as Lauren rode around outside. […]
