…who think it’s pretentious when someone says they’re going to shut down their blog and explains why, perhaps you should shoot on down to and click the “Read the rest…” bit at the bottom of the page. For the rest of you, well, I just don’t have much time anymore, and my time is going to [...]
I just got back from an event at the local middle school. Jack, my middle, biological child, had grades that were good enough that he was honored along with other 8th (and 7th) graders that had GPAs of 3.75 or better. I don’t want to brag, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t point out [...]
I was in Seattle and Canada last week. Mostly Canada if you want to be picky. I didn’t see Dave, Vahid, Jody, Nat or LeSombre. I only mention that as I know NYCWD sometimes yearns for the days bloggers linked to each other on a more regular basis. Before I go any further let me [...]
I purge. Not really, but that’s what I told my doctor when he asked how I’d been losing weight. He gave me a look that said I don’t really believe you, but I’m curious about where this is going as he said, “Oh. Really. How’s that working out?” “Pretty good.” I said. “As a matter [...]

It’s a new year but I still have one or two things about Christmas I’d like to say. This was the second time all eight of the children have been together and, again, I could not have asked for things to go better. Everybody gets along with everybody else. My children miss their new brothers [...]
Twenty-four hours ago there were ten people in the house. Twelve hours ago there were seven of us. Now, it’s just me. (I’m not as lonely as I might otherwise be … thanks to some local Buddhists, Eastern Indian Folks, and Blockbuster’s Corporate Policy I’ve got a bit of General Tso’s Chicken, Diet Pepsi, [...]
Not quite to Alaska, but in a provice that bangs right into it. Posting, I predict, and I say this from a point in the future in a post I’ll backdate and pretend I wrote on October 16, will cease for something over a week despite the fact I’ll have written several things on the [...]
It wasn’t my intention to have the Cultus Lake story span multiple months. But, um, I’ve been busy. By way of a recap for anybody stopping by for the first time: Ten of us – two adults and eight children … six Canadians and four Americans (of the Ohio variety) … six females and four [...]
Last Friday Diane had a meeting in Vancouver. I’d planned on going in to town with her and as Emily, my new oldest girl (or “Nog” as I called her the other day before realizing that particular naming methodology wouldn’t work as well for my new oldest boy), was home from school we decided to [...]
I left for the airport Sunday morning at 8:50 a.m. Diane was arriving at 9:39 and I wanted to be there early just in case her plane — Delta Flight 3050 from Detroit — came in ahead of schedule. I was standing under the big Arrivals screen at 9:20. Her flight was marked "on time" [...]
