Painting, Baking, Birthday

If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!Well, I thought I did a great job spray painting this chest of drawers until I saw this photo. Ack. Back to the front yard with another can.

Sage really likes the carpet in his new room. I still […]

This Is So Clever

Less internet-savvy individuals will fall straight for it! This is really a cool idea.

Visions

So far, they’ve never been premonitions. And when you’re driving down the road and in your mind’s eye you see the motorcycle in front of you skid, tumble, its driver sliding beneath the wheels of an oncoming car–you are thankful for that.
It’s difficult to know what to make of it all sometimes. You […]

And It All Just Went Away, Kinda

I stopped thinking about politics.
I started thinking about ways to earn money instead. I found myself abandoning sites like TruthOut and reading Dosh Dosh as an unlikely alternative.
This all sounds very selfish and all, but it has worked out for me rather well. I’ve made several thousand more dollars than I would have […]

Deep Thinking

Such serious things my kiddos contemplate.
Sage got home from day camp and watched a Scooby Doo movie. After the movie, he turns to me and says, “Life is going by really fast. Soon I’ll be grown up. Then I’ll be a grandpa and then I’ll die. And I know what it feels like when […]

Cleaning, Stencils, Being Mad, Cleaning

I thought about it, but decided not to, because after all, you all don’t really have to know what a disgusting piglet I can be when it comes to housecleaning, right?
I […]

Reality Is a Tenuous Thing

Your child could go on to develop schizophrenia. Perhaps your child triggered it himself, through the use of various and sundry hallucinagins, […]

Photos Of Things That Need To Be Done

Yesterday, I made myself a big pitcher of this, and seriously got to work on the room that is the most formidable.

Sage loves bright colors, and painting it yellow didn’t take very long at all. Yesterday, I did finish the parts up by the ceiling and took down the tape. However, the worst is […]

Blogs, Cats, Kids, Prisoners…

There’s certainly been a lot going on lately. The moving, the painting, installing, etc. is definitely keeping me busy. And, I am still blogging. I just sold Bloggrrl, bringing the total I’ve made off of that blog to about 4K. I’ve made an additional three thousand or so more doing paid posts on my […]

Chillin’ in the New House

BEFORE

AFTER

This may not seem like a big deal, but I am so proud because I installed the air conditioner by myself! Well, Sky helped me lift it into the window, but I took out the old one and got this one set up. I decided not to install central heat and air because 1) […]
