Posted on April 20, 2013 by joey

Today, we had a visit from my oldest nephew, Simon. (We’ll call him Simon, because that’s totally not his name.) He’s one of my most favorite people. Our relationship is based on coffee. When Simon was small he would wait … Continue reading →

Pardon me, while I wrestle with my happiness. So sorry, beg pardon. Let’s begin with the fact that I sleep well. Granted, my in-laws are older people, so while it’s 72 or so downstairs it’s 108 upstairs. I’m more of … Continue reading →

Posted on February 16, 2013 by joey

When we moved here, the wee ones were so wee. They were two and three, barely off the breast and out of diapers. As I mentioned, they don’t remember the last house we lived in. They have no memories there. … Continue reading →

Romance Is What You Make It

Posted on February 15, 2013 by joey

I wanted to write yesterday, but our internet went down in the afternoon. Ironically, it went out as I was explaining to my father that virtually everything is online now. I tried to explain that I love my internet like … Continue reading →

Posted on February 7, 2013 by joey
