Over the weekend we had a terrible storm hit here in WA state. Normally I’d be upset that the severe wind and rain caused me to lose power all day on Saturday, but considering the amount of wildfires we have raging right now, I’d say the rain was a good thing. I used my day…

Lola has seriously pissed off the squirrels who live in our backyard. Every year the hatred gets a little more intense.

I’ve decided Hubster has finally reached the end of the road. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Who’s talking about murder?! I’m not talking about murder. What’s wrong with you guys?!! You’re watching too much CSI and NCIS on television. Hubster has reached the end of the road as far as movie watching in bed goes. Every single…
