Overdue for a Haircut
What do you think? Am I overdue for a haircut? I’m torn. A bunch of extra hair is good for the winter months, and the ratty hair and beard go with my ratty teeth. It’s definitely weird, but I don’t know if it’s awesome or awful. I feel the same way about my life. The…

The Cast Iron and Brick
We had a plumber come in today to find a leak. He opened up the ceiling and several walls. The leak is in a cast iron drain pipe encased in brick and there are water capillaries through the brick now. That is almost exactly as bad as it sounds. Tearing up pipes in the wall…

Skeeball
My parents are on Mackinac Island, Michigan. When I was about seven or eight we went there as a family. There was an amazing game there that I had a lot of fun playing. I didn’t have a name for it to request it later. And as a kid I had only ever seen it…

Family Meal
For several days I have wanted pizza. Stephanie and William came over today and I suggested Domino’s. Everyone agreed. I got a pizza, Alex got a pizza, William got a pizza, Ben got boneless chicken, and Stephanie got baked cheese pasta. We all got a soda. Brandon is in Indiana with Nevaeh today but he…

Bleach
Today is garbage and recycling day. Every week I have to get a week’s worth of poop out of the house into the bins. Today our diaper can had maggots on the lid. A lot of maggots. I was not about to play around with that. I took a bottle of bleach and poured it…

Record Player
Yesterday my mother gifted me a compact record player. I already had a few vinyl records to play on it. I have successfully listened to two of those records and am on my third. Glen Campbell this time. The last two were both Anne Murray. Ben slept on the couch through the first album. Ben…

Land of the Lost
I just finished the first season of Land of the Lost. In the final episode “Circle” the Marshalls make it home. I had no clear memory that they had escaped the Land of the Lost, and that’s probably because there were two more seasons which just ignored the true ending. That’s good business considering the…

Dust Buster
I got filters for my dust buster. I have been spot cleaning the floors for days. I am almost out of filters. But I got them from Amazon so I can order a bunch more now that I know the correct specifications. I’m going to try to find a hand held unit to do wet…

Dysregulated
Everyone has been dysregulated since the coffee and Final Fantasy earlier this week. I don’t think it’s going to kill us but everyone has been yelling bloody murder at me so in this case I may be wrong. I am starting to catastrophize like the rest of the family. We need each other and if…

Turds
Ben usually gets a bath when he wants one. He sat on the toilet before he got in his bath tonight. A storm rolled in and Stephanie suggested that he sounded distressed because of it even though he was in the bath. I checked and he was sitting sideways in the tub with his legs…
