Hello from the 21st century. I feel like I’ve just woken up from a long sleep- a Rip Van Winkle long sleep. Believe it or not, I am typing this on my very own Dell laptop. That’s the good news. The bad news is I can’t get it to work at my house right now. …(Read More)

Hello kiddos. The rumors of my demise are premature. I’m still here, I’m happy to say. Never fear. Only the good die young. I’m sure I’ll live long enough to become an outrageous old crone. According to Doug sometimes I’m pretty close as it is sometimes. (Of course he’s the one who left me alone …(Read More)

Happy Monday kiddos. I hope all is well with you. I am still computerless; without a working computer that is. When I can’t get to a computer somewhere I’m stuck using my old Android phone for data; and now that I’ve had to use it so much it’s going slower than ever. I feel like …(Read More)

For those of you that know me you know that my Toshiba POS has been down for about a week now. This isn’t the first time that it’s done it; but it’ll be the last. Anyway, in the meantime I’m going around and using computers when and where I can. Right now I’m at the …(Read More)

My computer is still on the disabled list which sucks the big wahoo. I’m praying that Nathan can breathe life back into it this weekend. In the meantime I don’t have a lot of time to spend on the computer at Amanda’s. She’s still recovering and I’m trying to stay out from underfoot as much …(Read More)

Hi guys. I wanted to pop in and say hi and thanks to everyone for their words of encouragement for Amanda. I’m happy to report she got home yesterday afternoon. And she was able to avoid surgery. They all passed on their own.  She was even able to miss the CAT scan. After we got her back …(Read More)

Well it’s 7:35 am and I haven’t been to bed yet. In fact we just got home perhaps and hour ago. Where were we? you ask. Were we partying with all the pretty people? Did Doug lose possession of his faculties and decided to start dancing? I wish. No nothing that much fun. We were …(Read More)

Ethan Hunt taught us that a master spy must be able to inconspicuously dangle from ceilings while suspended by ropes. We also surmised that those acrobatic feats were the secret to a rock-hard torso. Today, learn aerial arts with a sampler strength conditioning class at Vault Houston for $10 (regularly $20). You’ll be briefed at …(Read More)

  Here’s an update for the 2 or 3 of you that might be interested… Saturday’s outting to Discovery Green for the ice carving event started out badly. I didn’t sleep the night before, literally. Brett had called just before midnight with some less than wonderful news. (more on all that another time.) He’ll be …(Read More)

I got up feeling pretty good this morning. Yesterday I got the heads up for us to participate in an event this weekend. It’s down at Discovery Green, where we set up for Discovery Flea once a month. From Thanksgiving through mid January they have an outdoor ice rink set up there too. It’s predicted …(Read More)
