Variety Pack
My time for computer use has been brief of late. I have made a couple of aborted attempts at LJ updates, but even trying seems to trigger interruptions! Even now, I am two finger typing furiously in case the phone rings or someone walks up needing something ( Read more... ) -
Best laid plans
We will be going to St. Nicholas this weekend. Probably tonight if I have my way.
my_dog_fluffer will try and get something from their bookstore. She has a prayer corner in her room and will want a diptych or icon. She always does. During a past festival a seminarian (working the bookstore) spent a great deal of time talking to the girls, gave them each a ( Read more... ) -
A dog crap augury
Morning finds Charlie, Macy and myself doing a backyard fecal inspection. As the fearless leader, I am taking in "the big picture" from six feet above. Macy and Charlie are a little more "nose on". The bottomline is Macy seems to be over the hump. -

Tired today.

I didn't know I was going to be working out on the fenceline (until I got there) and had not brought any leather work gloves ( Read more... ) -
A pile of stuff
We have been surprised by an old friend who is in town for nearly a week. This has played havoc with our intended schedule. We now feel compelled to fill his week with useful evening activities. My friend Mark and his wife often feel similarly compelled when I am dispatched to San Diego, where they have lived now for 6 years?! Has it really been ( Read more... ) -
