Basically, with big purchases online we’ll use our credit card to give us a bit of protection in case of fraud or whatnot. Bank of America (BoA) takes this on to a whole new level though. Margaret placed an order online for a camera lense on Saturday, but didn’t know until Sunday that BoA cancelled [...]

That’s right. When playing DJ for the misses you know you’ve done right when she’s dancing in her seat, swinging them arms, and singing along. Lets just say that she did sing along with this, but begrudgingly:

I don’t know what it is, but when people express interest in hearing either me play or a recording of me playing; I am never satisfied. I’m either not happy with how it sounds or I hear a flub here and there that I don’t want anyone to hear it. I keep most of what [...]

I have all this beautiful fabric at my finger tips and all I’m waiting on is new inspiration. Hopefully that inspiration comes soon in the form of the books I ordered from Amazon. I bought a few that had been setting on my wish-list for awhile. I’m glad I waited because I was able to [...]

Well, it looks like Lucas found another critter while being outside today. He started digging really quickly and with great intensity until he pulled back with a big fat gray mole in his mouth.
