Wire free

Tuesday, June 20th, 2006

Well, finally broke down and made the call. No longer have a land phone line. No real reason I didn’t do it earlier - just lazy I guess (and not wanting to wait on hold for a while). Just about anyone that has called that line in the last few months either forgot to […]

The only constant is change

Monday, June 19th, 2006

Ok, and maybe the other constant is always having to do chores. Tonight is chore night - grocery shopping, mowing the lawn, finishing laundery, etc. Stopped at the grocery store on the way home, and things changed a bit again. The store has been under a remodel for a while, but nothing really has […]

Cat lesson # 2

Monday, June 19th, 2006

When leaving plants around the house, always make sure you have pots that are heavy enough to prevent a cat from casually knocking it over as she walks by. Hmm, yeah, I love having to clean up dirt piles in the morning…

Cat lesson # 1

Saturday, June 17th, 2006

Well, the summer wedding season has started. The first one was this past weekend - Matt and Erin, a couple of good friends of mine. This wedding had a few milestones for me as well. It was the first time I have ever been asked to stand up for a wedding (thankfully not as the […]

Ants were back

Tuesday, June 6th, 2006

Well, my cat left me a nice present the other day (I swear she has an eating disorder as I can’t find what she is getting into that might cause her to puke). Apparently she left me a present on the window sill in the spare bedroom. I didn’t notice it too soon apparently as […]

Auction addiction

Thursday, June 1st, 2006

Well, been a bit since I wrote anything here, so figured it was time for an update. Just sitting here watching the public tv annual auction. I have called in a few times to try and bid on stuff, but so far no luck. Twice thy have had the “steal of the night” of a […]
