I can’t believe this is just the second post I’ve made all month. Sorry. I wish I could use the excuse that I’ve been too busy but I’ve actually been on vacation (from my main job) for the past nine days, and I don’t go back until January 2nd. I’ve been catching up on a [...]
I hate raking leaves. Maegan loves when I rake leaves. P.S. You’ll notice that Maegan is wearing shorts. It was in the mid-70′s today.
After 10 months, Patty is rejoining the workforce. She was offered a position with an architect in Charlotte (not as an architect) and she will start on Wednesday. Patty was contacted about the available position after I posted a message about her in Craig’s List, with a link to her resume.
Today the Mets unveiled a commemorative logo to celebrate the final season of Shea Stadium, their home since 1964. In 2009 the Mets will move to their new home, Citi Field.

My mother usually comes in from Florida a few days early but this year she came in on Saturday, five days early. She came in early to get a better price on airline tickets and to avoid the travel [...]

If you can read this, the answer is yes. Kelly Pickler was on the television show “Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader” tonight.
