…a funny thing happened on the way to the bar
So, as I mentioned before, it’s been a rough few months. A cancer diagnosis (a good kind), a lost job. Well, things have not necessarily looked up.
I’ll get into how we got here in a later post, but I’d like to introduce our new grandkid, Niblet. So, last Friday, we arranged to purchase a pregnant Nigerian Dwarf. We went to pick her up on Sunday, and she was no longer… Continue Reading “Sooo… Niblet.”

So yeah, 2023 has not been stellar. First we get a (minor, but still) cancer diagnosis. Now I’m back in the job market. Boo. The good news is that I have lots of time for projects? Let’s do a quick roll call on our… Continue Reading “The Hits Just Keep On Coming”
Wear your sunscreen. Work gave us the entire week between Christmas and New Years Day off. So being the responsible adult that I am, I scheduled all of those appointments I’d been putting off. At my checkup with my PCP, I asked for a… Continue Reading “Well, Crud. Wear Your Sunscreen, People.”
