Back to Flylady?
It’s been a week since I mentioned my plans to implement a summer routine. I’d like to say I have it all worked out and it’s going just swimmingly. But I can’t. It seems that my days vary so much that it’s hard to come up with a consistent schedule. I think I’m just going…

The Big Easy…in miniature
Today is David’s birthday and we’ve got a bunch of friends coming over in a little over an hour. We still have to eat dinner and I need to get the cherry pies in the oven (I’ve already got the pie crusts made). That means this is a good day to share this video I’ve…
