Are You Watching ‘Glee’?

Yes, I realize this may mean I have a problem. Haha! On my way home from work yesterday, I went to pop the latest Glee CD (Volume 3) into my car’s CD player, only to find that the CD it was replacing was Glee Volume 2. This morning, I went to pop Volume 3 (yes, [...]

Hello, Memorial Day Weekend!

Memorial Day Weekend, I’m so glad you’re here! The calendar says we have a few weeks to go until summer, but I don’t believe it. To me, this is the official start of summer! I need no further proof than the absolutely gorgeous weather we’ve been having! Steamy 90s earlier this week, freaky summer storm [...]

Flower Frenzy

As if the multiple flats we already had waiting to be planted weren’t enough, we headed to Romence Gardens to pick up some more! What sparked this quest for additional plant-age, you ask?

Would You Like Fries with That?

What has been happening with this weather? Sunny and warm during the week, and cold and rainy on the weekends. What is wrong with this picture? This weekend saw momentary breaks in the rain, though. And momentary was all we needed. We took full advantage of a break in the rain showers to hit the [...]

A Rainy Saturday Morning & Happy May Day!

This morning, Kevin set off on a four hour bike ride. Yes, you read that correctly— a Gilligan’s Island three hour tour, plus one more hour. Then, after he returns from that, he has a one hour run on the schedule. I’ll go with on the run, but a four hour bike ride? He showed [...]
