My right ear is ringing, my right thumb is numb, and I am about to take it out on the dog next door.
I’ll back up.
I had another band rehearsal on Monday night. Last week you might recall some piccolo music was left on my seat. This week, the director handed me two piccolos. [...]
… Vicki is gone.
My pest control guy came and removed my two moles traps. He caught Vicki in the backyard (poor girl, I still feel bad). He didn’t see any new mole hills, so for now (knock on wood), all is quiet and we can enjoy our yard without all of the holes. There [...]
My babysitters on Monday night (*ahem*) had a little problem with the DVR and spent all evening on the phone with tech support. LUCKY for them, my Prison Break episode was *mostly* recorded. I had to read the last five or ten minutes worth of written summary online.

I’d like to highlight another military blog that I’ve linked to my website.
MAJ Strong’s blog is another to follow. He is also serving with the Oregon National Guard in Afghanistan. In particular, his post on September 11th is a great tribute and also lists much of what our soldiers are doing over there…

I was telling Brian on the phone the other night that it is so neat that Grace can talk fairly well. It is such a window to her mind and her imagination. Though much of it is still chatter that isn’t understood, I do catch a fair amount [...]
What a bummer. I decide to join this band, but am now busy on Monday nights! Well, I still plan to watch Prison Break on Mondays! But I had to record it and Vanished, and I still haven’t caught up on Vanished from last week. I’m not that into it, but maybe I’ll watch it [...]
Our Kettlebell store is finished!
Visit The Courage Corner by clicking here. You’ll also see in our menu above that our Kettlebell pages are divided into one with recommendations for women and one for men.
Adjustments, adjustments… as I work on our new store, I may move things around a bit. I’m still trying to figure out [...]
