Things are better today – it is amazing how a bit of snuggling and affection can go so far to soothe feelings. Today is the first really nice day since the deck was screened in, and I’ve already spent...
I am in a foul mood today. The day started off pretty normally, but my wife and I ended up having an argument over a joking comment. …..and with that I just deleted several paragraphs. While the writing was...
It was a somewhat hectic weekend but I wasn’t very productive. Our deck is not quite finished, but they did finish the screening, though we decided to have a retractable sliding screen door installed so we can open it...
