A Scary Thing For Kids?

Found this pic on my cell phone. Forgot I took it some time ago.  This is an actual fish sandwich that I got when with the kids one day last year. It’s really a good thing that we didn’t just come from a Disney movie when we got it.  LOL!
I’m grieving that I accidentally [...]

Ah, Spring Break

I meant to post a ‘Gone Fishing’ graphic on the page early last week, but obviously Mr Lazy Pants just couldn’t get it done. The family took a trip to Houston to see more family. Went down and visited with Dad and I continue to worry about his progress. We spent some time de-crapping [...]

Musical Girl o’Mine

On the way to school with her mom this week: CuriousGeorge found a kazoo and started playing it in the back seat.
“Mom, guess what song this is.” She plays some notes.
“Um, I don’t know that one.”
“It’s ‘Take Me Out To The Ballpark’. Guess this one.” She plays another song.
“Is that Twinkle, Twinkle?”
“Yea!! [...]

New Baby Boy

Mancub is 7 and CuriousGeorge is 5.  My baby days are long done and gone. I was a good daddy at that time and can still do diapers and soothing, but this weekend I was reminded that I don’t want any more baby FH’s.
My nephew-in-law brought his son over for a weekend stay so he [...]

Make’n Time

Had a long, productive talk with Xx last night. Trying to keep dialog going as we prepare to marry again. I know it’s so totally not the right order of things, but I’ve never been normal anyway. We talked about how it is different this time, how we will be different this time, what we [...]

Gotta catchup! Different ideas written in different colors today.
Man, I felt like the family was sick forever. We had a second round last week and I am just tired of it! We are finally healthy. Kids are caught up at school and all is back on track.
So, I went to a gay bar last weekend. [...]

Now, Sick boy

I rarely ever get sick. (Typing that while knocking on a number of wooden things.)  Mancub woke me at 4am with the sounds of liquids hitting a foot radius around the toilet. *sigh* He now seems to have what CuriousGeorge had over a week ago. So daddy takes another day off.
So, for your spare internet [...]

Sick girl

Aggg!  Neither of my kids ever learned to blow their nose well. I mean, how do you ‘make’ them blow crap out of their nose when they don’t want to?  CuriousGeorge had allergies last weekend and started coughing through the night because of the drainage. Would she blow her nose to get it out? Oh [...]

I Missed You!

Had some good things to share last week and took the laptop out camping with 5th graders. Was told there was wireless and by the time I was able to post, it went down. I got home in time for Halloween and was slammed with projects for the next day. Then off to New York [...]

My Daughter: Curious George

I was reading Loz this morning and  began thinking about my beautiful daughter. I thought I’d share a few things this morning, since it’s 3:30am and I’m awake.
CG was not planned. We wanted another child, but she came into the world as a gift and not as a planned course of action. The birth was [...]
