This was our dryer. I forget where exactly I found this, but find it I did. It was on the side of the road and all it needed was a $50.00 element and since we needed a dryer, a dryer we got. I forget exactly how many years we have had this dryer. At least…

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoaKdstaLPM&hl=en_US&fs=1&] Emily loves to sing. She usually wakes up with a song and depending on the lyrics, we can tell the kind of day we will have. “Happy Day” is a good day and when we hear it we roll over and look into each others eyes and consider having just “one more”. If…
Read moreShould be called “Try and sleep study”
What an interesting experience last night was. The wires, the glue, the straps, someone drawing on your head, it was all just so… interesting.

Read moreWhen life gives you lemons….
Not once in my 40 years on the planet has anyone come up to me and given me lemons. Come to think of it, no one gave me apples, or bananas, or oranges, or any other kind of fruit. In fact, most of my life has been gift free from strangers barring the occasional one…

I deactivated my facebook account tonight. I needed a reason to drop it and the latest privicy issues was reason enough. I may reactivate it sometime down the road. Who knows. It is twitter and email for me.
