For the love of Labs

Marley and Hank must be kindred souls.
Either that or Labs are all alike.
And there are 2 of the worlds worst dogs.

Perception vs. Perspective

I’m not sure where this post is going -I just know that the same thoughts have been circling my head for several days now and I feel like writing it down.  I can almost promise that there will be no resolution and it will end abruptly.  Consider yourself warned.  It, like me, is a work [...]

October 9th, Baby

The first new album in 4 years comes out in a matter of weeks.
I need stronger reinforcements in my closet.
And some new undies.

The wandering tale of the Dixie Chicken and the Tennessee Lamb

I cannot even begin to tell the good time that B and I had Wednesday night.  OH MY ZUMLA, it was fabulous!!  I wish I could post all the photos and video clips, but that would take ages and ages and ages.  IF you want to see them, contact me and maybe I’ll send you [...]

I think I may just pass out from the shock of it all…

I just got off the phone with B.  He tells me the following things:

He arranged childcare (overnight) for Wednesday night.
We have plans.
We’re going to The Blue Note’s Summerfest
We’re going to go see Little Feat!!!!  (one of our all time favorite bands)

My lord, the man got off the couch and managed to get himself (and [...]

Just ’cause I love it.

A gorgeous, wide eyed, calm and gentle soul entered the world last night at 11:58 weighing 7lbs 9.3 oz.  Baby Boy I and his brilliant, beautiful, amazing [...]

Yummy JuJu

It’s Sunday morning - a damned near perfect Sunday morning. 

B woke up *early* to go fishing by himself which always means a happy man.  This is a good thing.
The boys played quietly and let me sleep in a bit.  Glorious!
Hank did not chase a cat while out for his morning elimination round.
I made the best [...]

All I’m asking

is for 1 uninterrupted hour to work out a day.
Not 2 hours, like I’d like.
And also not 15 minutes - which is what I got today.
So, to the kids and the dog who feel my work out is a 3 person and 1 canine adventure:
STOP INTERRUPTING ME GODDAMMIT!!!!
Stay outside.  Stay in the basement.  Hell, stay [...]

3 totally random, unconnected pictures

well, okay, 2 connected pictures and one random straggler….
 As we all know, the last Harry Potter book was released at Midnight.  No, I did not go to the launch party, but DDFF did.  In order for her to take her group of wizards with her to get the book at midnight, she had to stand [...]
