I guess I was due for another one

Sep 16th, 2009 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 0

Yesterday was an all-day headache day, but it was mild and tolerable. Today was a migraine day. I was starting to get nauseated with light and sound aversions about 30 minutes before I needed to pick up Ada. And this one included my sometimes general confusion. I was also starting to collide into things, couldn’t [...]

Something’s in the air

Sep 15th, 2009 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 1

I worked a couple of ours in the front yard yesterday. It was a sneezing, itchy nose, eye swelling experience. My allergies have been terrible this season. I haven’t had this bad of a problem with them in probably 12-ish years. The weather is at temps where I could turn off the AC, but I [...]

Toppings I made available: orange bell peppers, caramelized shallots and garlic, pineapple, cheese, pepperoni, chicken, Canadian bacon, Italian sausage, pizza sauce and BBQ sauce. I always make my pizza sauce, so [...]

On Ada and Eating

Sep 10th, 2009 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 0

It is getting difficult to get Ada to eat. And it isn’t limited to just certain items. She’ll turn down a yummy homemade cookie at times as well. Her reasons she gives for not eating are a little funny though. I thought I should keep track of them in one place. Ada’s Reasons For Not [...]

I went to Amazon to look at something, and I notices an entire downloadable album of sampler music. Clicking on that one lead to another one and then another one. You have to use Amazon’s downloader for their music. Go to Amazon’s MP3 download section and search for JDub Presents: Wild Peace. If you click [...]

What’s Cooking Thursday

Tonight will be chicken quesadillas, although very little chicken. I have some leftover from the casserole. It will mostly be black beans. Other things: I’m selling my metal bed frame. It is a queen size. I bought it from Blue Heron, um, 7-8 years ago. I think Mac took a photo. I’m giving away a [...]

Everything. We didn’t eat until 7:30pm. Wednesday: Chicken fingers, green beans, garlic mashed potatoes and cheese biscuits. This was a meal loved by the [...]

Tough girl

Sweet? This was a great pose for trying a technique to give photos a gritty look. She loves that bike. She toppled the bike over about 4 times. Even with me demonstrating, she hasn’t quite grasped the fact that pedaling backwards enacts the breaks, so when she is riding fast in a tight circle and [...]

I finally put these together

Kids’ Bikes The bikes have been in our garage for a little over a week, but rain and a lack of helmet for Jay that wasn’t Barbie put off the assembly. The weather forecast has changed quite a bit, and yesterday new helmets must have come in because there was one with dinosaurs that fit [...]

My Gaming Ada

Sep 5th, 2009 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 0

Today has been a do-nothing day. I have no desire or energy to get anything done. I didn’t even make it to market this morning. It’s too bad, but considering how much I’ve been doing lately, perhaps this is a good thing. And it isn’t like I have to go to work on Tuesday. I [...]
