Duped
Remember the stove problem last month? The problem with the shop I usually use for cleaning unable to get to it until January, so I used the shop I don’t like and come to find out the guy from the shop I liked kind of screwed things up? Then the guy from the shop I […]
First Haircut
Abigail and I went and got Christmas hair cuts today. She was so excited when she got home. “Grandma! I went to the salon! They sprayed adult stuff (water) in my hair!” – b
Does Not Compute
I think it’s probably snowed more in the past week/10 days that it did the last two years. Four inches here. Four inches there. A little more to top it off. Each time I’ve shoveled. That’s right shoveled. I’ve got both a tractor with a plow and pretty hefty snowblower, but I’m shoveling. It’s a […]
Thomas Craze

Killing Us Again
I could have sworn I titled a post “Killing Us Softly” in regards to Lauren or both girls not sleeping and Jen and I (figuratively) dying because of it. Though after all my searching, I can’t find it. Either way it’s concrete enough in my mind (probably a post I meant to write, but never […]
