We’ve had an active few weeks around here.  We bought a house, planned/attended my grandfather’s funeral, put a roof on the house, have progressively slowed down due to my expanding girth and - in general - have just been enjoying our life.  How about a listy list?
1.  My mother arrived, eventually, and we drove back […]

I hope all of you are having a wonderful Thanksgiving.  We had a great time with Dana’s parents last evening and today we’re looking forward to a great day with friends.  We have so much to be thankful for today.
How about a list?
1.  I’m thankful for Anna Grace and how she makes me laugh.
2.  I’m […]

Sorry about the length but lets just get this blog up to date, shall we??!!!!
How about a listy list?
1.  Dana Haukoos, you just got a new job after nearly 11 months of no job.  What are ya gonna do now???

He’s Goin’ to Disney World (or.. EPCOT to be more exact).
On Dana’s last day of unemployment […]

What have I been doing this week?  How about a list!
1.  Reading more about organic gardening and a whole foods diet.  Listening to the book In Defense of Food by Michael Pollan. Really like it but the guy who reads it sounds like the same dude that does the voice overs for The Haunted Mansion.  […]

How about a list???
1.   I love Easter.  It is my favorite holiday.  I love it even more when holy week coincides with Passover like it does this year.  Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy!
2.   We had a Seder at church tonight which was very cool.  I had never done that before.
3.   I can hear the big booms […]

So…. life got weird, back got weird,all sorts of weird, and I got out of the habit of blogging.  I couldn’t figure out how to do the whole photo thing from the laptop…and with the back being weird (this post brought to you by the word weird) I have been stuck using the laptop, blah […]

I went to download photos off of the camera and realized that there is much blogging…that hasn’t been blogged.  Since I haven’t touched my knitting in over a week (but… shock of shocks… I actually did a bunch of carding.  I know…. you’re shocked!) there isn’t much “work in progress” to blog about.  How about […]

So…what’s been happening around here? How about a list?
1. Those that know me well, please don’t faint. There has been some bread baking. I’m still perfecting the baking of the bread to get it to the just-right spot of incorporating laziness and lack of cooking skills while still being successful.

Two loaves of […]

I’m dazed and scatter brained.  Many of you will say that this just describes my normal state of mind.  And to you I say "meh"!
How about a list?  It is probably your only hope of getting any sort of a lucid post.
1.  We went to Washington and arrived to find our house buried under this […]

How about a list?  The brain is a wee overwhelmed and such.
1.  The house (as of this writing) has a contract.  A sale contract.  Inspection today. Squee!
2.  With our history of flaky buyers with our previous house, I’m sure you’ll understand if I’m not totally celebrating just yet…. I’m just waitin’ to see if these […]
