0 for 2

I haven’t found a solution yet.
1) Plenty of Diet Coke so I’d have the energy to stay up till 1:30 working on one of my pressing projects. Good that night, not so good the next day when I was running on fumes.
2) Not blogging. Yeah, like that resolution is going to [...]

Wanted: Time Machine

I need about two extra days (three would be better) between now and next Thursday. Anyone know where I can get them?

Dear Motorcycle Rider Dude

Yesterday evening was just beautiful, and I’m so glad you had a chance to get out and enjoy it on your motorcycle.

As you can see from this picture, Mr. B had a beard when we got married. This was a good thing, as I had seen pictures of him without it. He kept it for 6 years, when some medical treatments caused it to thin out and he had to shave it off.
Since then, he has always had [...]

Here We Go Again!

HS was in braces for the first three years of his high school career. He wore bright blue brackets the entire time. He claims it was just coincidental that that was his high school colors were blue & white.
