Walk way that is! Darling Hubby and I finished redoing our front walk this weekend and I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. The old one was a crumbling concrete mess and looked down right terrible. Here is a picture that was taken in early 2004 (before we sided over that hideous yellow color) [...]

Debt Free! Yahoo!
Well, not completely, but I just paid off our credit card with a portion of our federal tax refund! That’s HUGE! That will save us around $100-200 each month. Now I’m hoping that we can just keep from putting anything on the credit card for a while. I haven’t used mine in months and when [...]

Do Phone Books Breed?
I swear that every time I set foot outside my house, there is a new 2009-2010 phone book swaddled in a plastic bag sitting on my front steps. It’s only February, but so far this year, I’ve come across 3 outside my door. Where do they keep coming from? Are they doing the phone book [...]

Yesterday it rained and rained all morning (my backyard was a lake) and by afternoon it was raining and snowing at the same time. It was strange. The flakes were big puffy ones, too. I’d kinda [...]

Still Chugging
Here are some more pictures of our train ride on September 28th.

Some wet cows
This is the view from the back of the train at the Roxbury station. It’s rather blurry because it was taken through a wet and foggy window. I think it’s rather artistic looking…lol I love the colors and the leaves strewn over [...]

Chug Chug Chug
Sunday, September 28th was a special day. It was Bug’s very first train ride. We’d been trying to make this trip to the train for some time, but the weather always seemed to be against us. We’d hoped that Sunday would be an exception to the rainy day rule that was in effect, but despite [...]

Just Close Your Eyes and Go to Sleep
Have you ever had one of those days where you are just so dead tired that you could fall asleep the second you close your eyes? One of those days where your eyes feel like lead weight, as do your arms and legs, and you know that when you curl up on the couch under [...]
