Anyone else ready for Spring? I realize that it is still technically February but with our temperatures climbing into the 60s today, I am certainly ready for Spring….Summer in fact. I love the fact that it is getting lighter in the morning also. I have to say I freaked out a [...]

Power…
I have noticed this annoying trait about myself recently. I start out with a small project and before I know it I have blown it into a campaign for the next presidential election….I have already contacted Hillary to see if she needs my help. I digress….take for example the storage shed that was [...]

There’s No Business Like Show Business…..
On a Monday morning, a dreary, dark Monday morning, you really must put on a star-studded show to capture the attention of any one in adolescence. If you think about it, it really is quite amazing that a teenager is able to get up in the middle of the night, let’s face it, 7:00 am [...]

TGIF
TGIF….we need another five snow days. The only problem is we could be going to school well into June. I know that I feel like I need them now but when the local swimming pool is open and I am lounging around a man-made lagoon, I am sure I will feel differently. [...]

Dogs…Dogs…Dogs
It was only slightly froggy this morning but you could have fooled me. I decided to venture out on the first morning walk in over three weeks. I thought Penny would tinkle everywhere (thus the comic) when I picked up her leash, she was quite excited. Needless to say she charged down [...]

Another Delay…

Happy Valentine’s Day!
This has been quite a couple of days. I did not update yesterday due to a little accident. While making dinner Monday night I sliced off the tip of my right index finger. They attached in the emergency room later Monday night, luckily before the ice started. Which brings me to [...]

Animals
Animals are hysterical. I don’t know if they mean to be but they certainly are. I spent a lot of time this weekend watching them in my backyard. I have the best natural habitat in my yard. I have a pretty dense area of trees that has a small creek that [...]

Somedays…
Are there days like this or what? Even though it is only 7:58 am, this day has already started out like this. I assign projects that every student must turn in at the end of every quarter. But it’s high interest projects AND if they don’t like any of mine [...]
