Fall Festivities FAIL
This past weekend Andy went to Chicago for a wedding.

The Summer It Didn’t Stop Raining
Recently the summer has been wet. Really wet. I think we are all feeling a little soggy here and a tad bit pruney and/or wrinkly. And stir crazy? Yup. We’ve all got the fever…cabin fever. If you are not local, we have not seen the sun for days. At least not for more than a few minutes
I’m Still Here and Independent!
So, yep. I’m still here. Over the past month I’ve had a person I’ve never met before in real life working behind the scenes on transferring everything on my old Blogger blog over to this here WordPress blog. Some might ask…huh? Why? First of all, I had no time to learn how to do it
