These guys supervise my work, and keep my company. They even give hugs and kisses. Who would have guessed it?

So, the other redhead in the house decided to visit with me while I was working. I have a built-in camera on the computer. I got a picture of the two of us while we sat together (he seems to not want to leave). I’m dressed for painting, so I’m not looking glamourous, but that’s [...]

It was first grade when my classmates told me I looked like George Washington, just because I wore my hair in a braid. And for the two years I still lived in that town, that name followed me everywhere I went. The next town, where I lived for five years, they called me “Lisa Pizza [...]

“These are the times that try men’s souls.” That was political, back at the founding times of our country. But I think the words apply to all of us at various points in our lives. Anyone who goes through life unscathed, without personal challenges, runs the risk of being a person of weak character. It [...]

Happy Vernal Equinox to everyone. It’s finally starting to smell like spring, too. There are some warm days earlier in the season that are just warm days.

My doctors, that is. They would be convinced I was abused. After the dog got me today, I really look bad. But nobody sees me, so it’s all good. Bandaids® on the hand aren’t so unusual, but I do look like I’ve been beaten. And on that note, I’m off to move some more big [...]

Blue has won by a resounding margin. I had one vote for “use both” and one for “definitely purple” (from someone who lives and breathes purple), and every other vote was for the blue (even my boss’s rabbit selected blue, or at least my boss told me that). I’ll post pictures when it’s all done, [...]

I think “do-it-yourself” is a euphemism for “hideously slow progress.” If you hire someone to do Job A, they come in and do Job A. If you attempt Job A, you get 1/3 of the way into it before you realize that really, you should do Job B before you finish Job A, because it [...]
