Hi everyone, Welcome back to Clutter Headquarters, and a happy Halloween to you all! Someone got into the candy a little early yesterday, which was an ugly sight. However, I restocked the bag, so BDH and Little Buddha will have plenty of goodies to enjoy when they go trick-or-treating tonight. Crisis averted! However, my teeth are still vibrating, and that doesn't seem like a good sign. Maybe some coffee will help. Grab yourselves a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Saturday Clutter! ESPN shut down Grantland.com effective immediately yesterday. The website's fate was probably a done deal the... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How are you? It's Friday, so congratulations on making it through another week! We were just looking out the window at the Clutter Tree. The wind has blown off most of the leaves at this point, which really changes the view here for a while. We have this feeling of some seclusion when the leaves are at their fullest, which is one of the coolest features of Clutter Headquarters. That's until the spring now, but as long as the tree is healthy and stays with us for many more years... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? It's a pretty dreary morning here so far at Clutter Headquarters. The rain is still coming down, and wind took away a good portion of the Clutter Tree's leaves over the last 12 hours. I woke up an hour early, and I probably fell asleep again, but it seemed like the alarm went off a minute later, which was all sorts of discombobulating. The good news is that you're here, we're here, and now the coffee is here. Help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Thursday Clutter. Sound... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back. How are you today? I'm fighting a mild headache at the moment, and there was some sneezing yesterday, but I'm hoping that was just allergies or something. Fortunately, I have two assistants who are doing their best to make sure I don't get sick, particularly because we still haven't gone Halloween candy shopping yet. They tell me that the coffee is ready, so let's get to work. Help yourself to a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear out some Wednesday Clutter. We've got another Republican presidential debate tonight. This one's on CNBC, and perhaps... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? I see everyone survived Monday in one piece. Excellent! I cleared a number of things off my to-do list, so that felt like a good start to the week. Of course there's always more to be done. However, we've got a number of stories to work through here first. The coffee is ready, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Tuesday Clutter! First off, we've got to take a moment to recognize that today marks the 11th anniversary of the day the world changed for the better.... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? I know, I know, it's Monday, so we deduct a few points off the top for that, but who knows, maybe it's the start of a good week. There's nothing major on the schedule on this end at the moment, apart from a few errands that need to be done and an event to attend later in the week. Anyway, it's time to get to work. The coffee is ready, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's start things off on a positive note with a little bit of Clutter.... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back. Come on in, make yourself at home. It's a little dreary out there at the moment, huh? It's a good thing I did some raking yesterday before this rain came. I made pretty good progress on the lawn and driveway, but there are still the flowerbeds to work through. Plus, the trees aren't finished dropping their leaves, so there's that. The city leaf pickup won't be for a few more weeks though, so I've got some time, but we're off to a good start. Oh, it sounds like the coffee is ready. Help yourself to a... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How are you? We're fine on this end, just looking forward to a long day of raking leaves. Pick-up doesn't start until a week from tomorrow, but there are so many of them, it seemed like a good idea to get a head start. Oh, for those of you who were asking, we're holding off for a little bit longer on buying this year's Halloween candy. I had a chat with the guys, and we all agreed that there's no way the candy will last the week if we get... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. Happy Friday to you all! How are you? We're all fine on this end at the moment. My dentist appointment went well yesterday, and that's always nice. BDH and Little Buddha are eager to go Halloween candy shopping today. I know they're going to have too much sugar next week, and then I'm going to have to take them for walks around the neighborhood/Clutter Headquarters while they burn it off. Oh well, at least I don't have to worry about them getting cavities. Anyway, the coffee is ready, so help... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, make yourself comfortable. How's everything going? Hey, I'm looking for suggestions for Halloween costumes for BDH and Little Buddha, so let me know if you've got any thoughts. I'm trying to figure out how much candy I should buy this year for them. I want them to have fun, but when you're that small, it doesn't take much sugar to make everything crazy, and then yours truly is stuck eating the remaining candy. Yeah, "stuck," that's the ticket. Of course, I should wait until today's dentist appointment is over before I buy anything.... Read more →
