Sugar and Spice are growing!

12 days old!

They are little fuzz balls of bouncing energy. AND, they love the bridge I built for them over the weekend. Now we need a Troll, to live under the bridge.

23 years...

Brandi was just a few weeks old. One of my least favorite daily tasks was lessen by my decision that day. I would grow a beard. The bristles grew in red. Red versus the brown of the thick mass of hair that grows on my top of my head. Well the red has given way to grey and white over the past few years. So much so that my beard was almost invisible when I trimmed it on Saturday evenings for Sunday services and on Wednesday mornings.

I didn't cut it all! I left the moustache - it has been part of me for 30 years. I don't think I would even know how to shave my upper lip! And I also left a goatee. What I shaved away was the the whiter portions.

So what caused me to part with something that has been with me almost half of my life? I'm still not sure!

By the way, what is this short stubble all over my face? I forgot what is was like to have a five o'clock shadow!

Hi Laura...
When I was singing in the Choir this morning I almost saw someone.
She was wearing this real cute green sweater. Did you happen to see her?
She came in and had a seat beside her dad. Did you happen to see her?
I turned around as soon as services were over to see if she was still there.
She was gone!!! Did you see where she went???

> insert :sad and disappointed smilie: <

Oh well! I was good almost seeing YOU this morning!!!

Sweetums, lay your ugly head
Down upon your wretched bed.
Close your eyes and go to sleep,
You hulking heap.
Sweetums is so sweet and cute,
Go to sleep your stupid brute.

Sweetums lay your ugly head
Down upon your wretched bed
Bunnykins is sweet and cute
Rest, you giant, stupid brute.

Sweetums lay your ugly head
Down upon your wretched bed.
Close your eyes and go to sleep
Rest, you giant, hulking heap.

NIGHTY-NIGHT... *THUD*

How long to hold a Travel Bug?

Well, like many a Geocacher, sometimes too long!

From May to October is much too long.


Yorkie has finally been placed into one of my caches -
How Sweet (Onions). It will be "sit" there for Pipnella to grab when it reaches NW Ohio via the USPS. Then it will be delivered to another YO-YO to travel around Arizona!

Now, I really need to go caching for real!
