"Look at me! I’m you!"
Yes. That’s what he said when he got into my pile of laundry this morning. I’ll have to upload the other hilarious poses he did when I broke out the camera.
A More Substantial Post
Hi friends! Okay, okay, I’m sure you’re growing sick of my super-brief postings about the nitnoid things that I’m doing to prepare the house for the move. Not interesting! Unfortunately, there isn’t too much interesting stuff going on during the week. This week, Jake is in an ice skating camp. It’s crossed my mind to … Read more
168 oz.
That’s how much beer I just dumped down our kitchen sink. My current mission: To combine the contents of our garage fridge with our kitchen fridge. The garage fridge is moving with us to NE, while the kitchen fridge will stay here, so I need to get the thing emptied and thawed before Monday. Most … Read more
110
I removed 31 more batteries tonight, from Jake’s electronic keyboard and Timmy’s 8 (count ’em: EIGHT) Shake ‘n Go cars. Wendy reminded me about each of those cars having 3 AA batteries! Phew, I almost forgot! So the current battery count is 110.

A Little Bit of Catch-up
“So, what on earth have you been doing? I haven’t seen a substantial posting in a while!” Well, now that Timmy is napping and Jacob is in NEW YORK with his grandparents, I have a chance to catch up a little! On Thursday of last week, Dave’s parents flew into town. Right in the middle … Read more
Holy Smokes!
Part of why you guys saw a series of posts about Magic Rocks was because the Raleigh area was under smoke from the “Evans Road” wildfire. The fires are originating near the east coast of NC and today’s easterly winds brought the smoke plume RIGHT OVER Raleigh. It was definitely hazy, with visibility down to … Read more
Is Your House Made of Ticky-Tacky?
I have started watching “Weeds” on Showtime. I seem to be attracted to these twisted shows that have a hint of black humor. Since “Six Feet Under” finished on HBO a couple years ago, there’s been some close ones (Nip/Tuck on FX), but nothing close till I caught my first full episode of Weeds a … Read more
