    Good evening all. We didn't get much snow at the house, but we did get enough ice to take down several trees and a net at a golf course. A lot melted today, but the temps are back under freezing again, which means the roads are going to be horrible tomorrow. The kids did manage to squeeze in...

    Well, no call back for interviews today. I'm going to call the contract company Monday and try to get an update. I'll try to get back online more often. I know it's been too long between my check ins. But I'll try!

    Good morning everyone! What'd I miss?! Not too much new here. Kids have a teacher workday today, so we're all being lazy. Well, I am. Kat's still asleep. Mel and CJ are taking turns playing video games and then snuggling up to me in bed and watching cartoons. We've spent close to $500 on...

    HI HO STRANGERS! We are FINALLY fully moved out. Except for the basketball goal... But I refuse to mess with that thing until it stops raining. On Friday. Bleh. Too much rain. Still no new news on the job hunt. There are surprisingly few opprotunities available with my skill set. Unless...

    Afternoon all. Nothing new here. Staying busy. Weather is back to garbage. We cant put anything in the truck to storage until it stops raining. Which it wont. Until next week. It's still really warm here though. over 75, I think. And my wife is rushing me out of the house, so I gotta...

    Howdy ho, folks. Things here are...well...going. We're just about fully moved in with dad. Most of our stuff at the house has been boxed up and already moved to storage. We still have a long way to go though. Weather has been less than cooperative lately. Of course, it's gorgeous today...

    Afternoon all. I can move today! Not house, move. But I can actually get up and walk. Not that I'm doing anything... It's football day! The weather is supposed to turn nasty this evening and stay nasty through Wednesday. That means Monday will be nothing but gym and tv. Tuesday, my mom...

    Afternoon folks. Wow. I can get an antique plate for my Accord. Weird. Well, I've been stuck on the couch since Wednesday. I decided to hurt my back at the gym Wednesday morning. Doing an exercise I've done dozens of times. I've had to turn down two nights of umpiring because of it, and...

    I can't wait for this year to end. We're STILL finding bedbugs. The huge storage unit we were going to store most of our stuff in just got a whole lot smaller. We're going to throw out all of our bedroom furniture. ALL of it. Ungh. At least it'll save about $100 per month. That's not your...

    Mornin' all. We have SUNSHINE!!! Can someone tell me why I waited so long to pop my own popcorn? It's soooooo much better than the microwave stuff. And one small bag of kernels was $2 for 25 servings. Yep. That's all I've got.

    Aint that the truth?! I'm glad we werent still in our old house. I can only imagine what that basement looks like right now. It would get a few gallons with a "regular" rain. A few dozen gallons with a hard rain. There's probably enough water to flow out the back door on its own by this...

    Howdy folks. Nothing too new going on here. Starting to get stuff packed up for the move to dad's. The couple of job nibbles I had were a bust. Either the hours or pay was carp. I've got two more I'm going to apply to this evening. Crossing fingers. I just got my severance paper work...

    Hey gals. I think it's official. We're going to break lease and go live with my dad. My mom offered to pay our rent, but we still wouldnt be able to keep up with the rest of the bills. Living with dad, again, isnt the easiest thing in the world, but I do believe it's the best option we have...

    Good morning all. Mrs E found some butts on sale, so I smoked it yesterday. I was up until almost 1am pulling it apart. It is sooooo good. The kids and wife let me sleep in this morning. I think today will be spent combing the job sites. Thanks for the well wishes guys.

    Oh, FV. For your hornets nest... Two suggestions. One, hit them with the killer spray late at night. They aren't usually active at night so most of them will be in the nest. Spray directly into the opening, soak it. The fumes will kill them before morning. Option two, hairspray. Lots of...
