In New Jersey

We drove up today and I can't help thinking how odd it is to be moving somewhere that can be reached in 1 day. House hunting and church visiting are items on the agenda for the week.

At our house tonight

we will host the first Light Weigh meeting for the Ft. Bragg Catholic Community. I am excited and believe it will be a blessing to all who attend. Please keep us in your prayers.

I made longer cords.

The Christmas candles I bought for the windows this year had short cords and the builder of this house did not center the outlets on the walls. Combined, these two facts neccessitated one of two things: a) use 10 drop cords, or b) lengthen the cords on my candles.

I chose b. Using a long drop cord, I spliced pieces into my candle cords and had perfectly fitted cord lengths for each window. Next house, I'll have to re-evaluate. When I build my own house, I will have outlets under every window, right where I want them!

Padded, back.

First birdhouse I built.

Last week it was blown out of the tree and I need to get it back up soon.

The entry hole is too low, but I hope some birdie will use it anyway.

MBMM problems

I saved a bunch of posts for MBMM and now when I publish them, they show up chronologically according to date. Phooey! Scroll down to see a couple of new ones, and I'll try to figure out how to fix this issue soon.

PS-- Got a hair cut this afternoon, and Matt did not break his record of 25 years. He has only noticed my new hair twice in all those years. On the bright side, he doesn't notice skinny, pretty women, either ;~)

"Naughty" is the key word...

What a naughty dog!!

He gets so dirty and gets in trouble...
