Early Morning

Man oh man, walking the dog this morning and smelling the moisture in the air and the bird’s chirps echoing through the trees…….so so peaceful.
I have to say I’m looking forward to spring.
Bye snow, I’ll conquer you again next year….ya pussy!

Ya know what really sucks? Missing talking to my little brother Steven. I get updates from Mom about Chris and Trav (heck I talk to them if they’re home), but I’ll never learn or hear anything new about what Steven learned.
Before he passed, he was getting into his spiritual side and Lord knows where that [...]

Playing With Lucas

I noticed while playing with Lucas from time to time he gets a second wind. What I mean by that is that he’ll be panting like crazy, but like a burst of adrenaline, he’ll explode with energy and excitement.
That happened tonight when he tried to hump me. See, I saw him get his second wind [...]

My Boots

I love my new boots.
I’ve had them now since November (i think), but they’re awesome. I realized today that I wear them more than being barefoot.

The brand is Danner and the boot is made in the USA. It has Goretex, so it’s waterproof and the leather was hell to break in. Even when we [...]

Busy Day

So, here I am, off of my feet and writing a post while waiting on dinner. I’ve been in the kitchen since 2 or 2:30 and it is now 6:51pm. I made guacamole, a faux white cheese queso, and chicken enchiladas. Anyone without an army of people to assist would think that time management [...]

Wednesday morning and Margaret is leaving for work. She’s going down one of the snow [...]

Our Dog

So Lucas has quite a few nicknames. I think the first one was Luke, then it slowly progressed to Captain Bob, but that one didn’t stick. Then it was Luke-ster, then Luke Poop. From there we got a bit creative with Lucas Poopus and Lucas Von Skittle Butts. Periodically you’ll here a Poop Scoop or [...]

The Movie Up

The wife and I watched the movie Up last night. Let me tell you that the movie was so damned depressing. The old man’s wife died early in the movie (reminiscent of every Disney movie) and during the movie, he kept referencing his dead wife. To compound matters further; he also pulled [...]

What a Great Weekend!!!

So Margaret was coerced to do the Black Friday thing with a friend and I have to say, it was the first time I ever heard her say that it was fun. So that’s a great thing. She left at 4 in the morning to hit all the stores and luckily the ladies she was [...]

She’s Home!!!!

So after a night of “watching movies” I can finally post!
She arrived yesterday afternoon and brought me dinner. The food didn’t matter, because I was able to see her again.
I walked outside and saw her get out of the car and our eyes locked. The embrace was awesome! I had her up in the air [...]

The Case For Orange Juice

There are times in a person’s life that justifies sticking up for things morally and right, such as Constitutional Rights, abolishing racism (or racist ways), and the need to NOT want to drink left over orange juice.
It all started over a bowl of oatmeal on a cool Monday morning. Margaret wanted something to drink to [...]

Hot Garbage

One day last week I had brought some soup in for lunch. It was cabbage and sausage in a vegetable broth based soup. The day I made it, it smelled wunderbar. The day Margaret opened the jar we canned it in was a different story.
I walked into the kitchen and I thought [...]

Pets as Children

I’ve been thinking about this lately. See we call each other momma and diddy to Lucas. Don’t know why, it’s just something we did. Now does that mean we look at our pup as a human child? Certainly not. Maybe it’s some sort of instinctual thing for us to call each other his momma [...]

Women and Their Toys

No no, not them kind, but of the sewing machine variety.
Sadly we mourn the loss of the piece of crap sewing machine that is the Singer Simple sewing machine. Out of the smoldering ashes of broken needles and wasted thread rises the Singer 7470 Confidence. It even had jail bate Martha Stewart on the damned [...]
