CHAPTER 9: DADDY VS. MURPHY’S LAW
Maybe it’s because I’m a guy. Maybe it’s because I was forced to take so many math courses in school (2 short of a Mathematical Minor! Woo-hoo!). But for some reason, I tend to see life in percentages. Especially daddyhood. Percentages and war/battle terms. For some reason, I also find [...]

In light of the coming weekend forcast full of 80 degree temps and sun shinning, I am spending the day in the kitchen. The only housework I want to do tomorrow is the kind that hangs laundry on the line or plants flowers in the window boxes (Pansies as we have been known to get more [...]
Easter in photos

I’ve been working on this post for a couple days and the photos are as far as I’ve gotten. I would write along with it, but it is so lovely outside that I just don’t have time to write. Pots need planted, wash needs hung, gardens need cleared out, and I need to get a couple more [...]

Don’t get me wrong, I know spring means rain. I actually am pretty fond of a good thunderstorm. I have two new dresses to list in the shop, though, and no good light to take pics in. The next project is a shirt for older girls similar to the halter dress. Who knows, perhaps I [...]

I hope everyone gets to enjoy some time with family today, eat a bit of chocolate or a big home-cooked meal. Most of all, I wish that you all find the peace, joy, and grace that God offered through the sacrifice and resurrection of His perfect son. Christ is risen, and is as much for [...]

finally

I’ve mentioned a couple times that yoga is kicking my hind end. Unfortunately all that kicking hasn’t been doing my hind end much good…or so I thought.
Now first a jab at me. I found out a couple weeks ago that I have been doing the easy class, as in the one for first-timers or seniors…and [...]
