Here are the cards that we made for each other.  Darryl made the one on the left, and I made the one on the right. What Darryl lacks in creativity he makes up for in words. I’m not going to tell you what the inside of the card says, but just [...]

Here are some photos I took before D and I left Rockwood. I don’t know why I’m drawn to trains or train tracks, but I just love how they look so lonely and worn..

This is the paper shelf that Darryl built for me after I’ve loaded it down with paper and other bits and pieces. He did a wonderful job making sure it’s stable and won’t collapes under the weight of all my paper. He also helped me turn the wire baskets you see on the 2nd shelf [...]

…I mean Idol?

I don’t know what’s up with certain wine manufacturer’s, but why don’t they siphon the twigs and other nonessentials from wine prior to bottling?
I just finished my glass of wine and it was also the last bit of wine from the bottle. What do my eye’s see after my last sip? Friggin’ TWIGS!!! I just [...]
