Hi everyone, Welcome back, and a happy Friday to you all! What are you up to this weekend? Gardening time is the priority on the to-do list as usual around here. BDH and Little Buddha are once again on the hunt for another book to read, so let us know if you have any suggestions. Speaking of those two, the guys have been listening to the birds all morning, but they took a break from that to make some coffee There's a fresh pot on the counter, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear out...

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How are you? Is it just me, or is this week going by quickly? I took a nap before last night's condo association meeting. The problem was that I didn't set the alarm, so I slept for about twice as long as I should have let myself rest. I still made the meeting, but it was hard to get back to sleep later, so today should be fun. As for the meeting itself, the big win was that I ignored my anxiety about attending, but I'm glad they're only once... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. We were just looking at the weather forecast. It's cloudy at the moment, and this afternoon looks like it's supposed to be pretty ugly. That's not fun. There's a meeting I should attend tonight, although I'm not excited about it, and the idea of thunderstorms isn't helping. BDH and Little Buddha think I should focus on the rest of the day first, and then we can revisit that when it gets closer. Works for me. In the meantime, the guys made coffee, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, and... Read more →

Let's get this out of the way right at the beginning: Clearing out the Clutter is adamantly pro-dog. We talk to every dog we see on the street (often ignoring their owners), we've got a blue dog running the office (just look at the picture on the right side of this screen), and if forced to say who we like better between people and dogs, the pooches win 99.9% of the time. Long story short: Dogs rule. However, we also appreciate the magnificent and fascinating creatures commonly known as cats. Whereas a dog will make it clear you're the greatest... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How are you? The week is off to a decent start so far on this end. The sun is shining, and that always helps. Moving a little slowly right now because this NHL Stanley Cup Finals thing is fun, but it keeps me up past my bedtime, and a guy needs his rest. The good news is that BDH and Little Buddha went on a shopping run yesterday and bought more coffee. They just made a fresh pot, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some...

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? The rain showed up as promised yesterday, so the garden got a solid soaking, which is great. BDH and Little Buddha say we've got sunshine in the forecast for today, which is also nice, because I need to run a few errands. By the way, how did it become June already? We'll save that discussion for another time. The guys just put a fresh pot of coffee on the counter, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Monday Clutter. Donald Trump is in the United Kingdom and he's... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How are you? It's looking a little dreary here this morning, but BDH and Little Buddha tell me I should still have enough time for a bike ride before the rain starts. We'll see if that rain actually shows up, or if it's just cloudy all day. I'd be good with the rain (after the ride), because I'm sure the garden wouldn't mind a solid soaking, but we'll see. First, let's check out today's headlines. The guys say the coffee is ready, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because... Read more →

As a general rule, we're inclined to dread the impending arrival of Armageddon. It just does not sound like a fun time at all. However, given that it provides an opportunity for David Tennant and Michael Sheen to team up, we're willing to keep an open mind. It turns out that's a good call, because the two stars of the new Amazon Prime Video series, Good Omens, are a perfect match as a demon and angel trying to prevent the end of the world. It's up to an angel and a demon to save everyone. (pic via imdb.com) Based on... Read more →
