It’s rainy and cold and it’s only September.September in Oregon is usually our best month. Our heater even started up a couple of days ago and I had to run around readjusting all the registers so the downstairs would heat … Continue reading →

Well, I was out late a couple of nights on this three day weekend and I wasn’t feeling all that great today. One of the two things I had on my list never happened (experimenting with paint stripper) but I … Continue reading →

I should keep this short since I should try to get some sleep but I’m out late again on a school night. Last night I was invited out to see a band, and I went. I got back early enough … Continue reading →
