Hi folks, Welcome back! How are you? Everyone here is fine, although we're in quiet mode after my gum surgery on Friday. I'm still sore, and have a bit of a chipmunk cheek, but I already feel better than I did Friday night, so that's progress. Loaded up on plenty of soft foods at the grocery store, and then our crew binge-watched Lucifer until we finally caught up to the sixth season. BDH and Little Buddha make great company, even when no one is talking, so all and all, everything is moving along. However, we missed all of you! Now... Read more →

Hi everyone, How are you? Our week is off to a pretty good start so far. Yesterday's walk home wasn't nearly as long as I imagined, but it was still some good exercise. Took care of most of the errands, but there's a whole new list today. Of course, since this Tuesday, that means it's time for the weekly trip to the bookstore to find something new for BDH and Little Buddha to read. Wish me luck! The other big news is that the Clearing out the Clutter store is back, but it's only open until September 14! This excitement... Read more →

Hi folks, How are you? Is your week going okay so far? I struck out at the bookstore yesterday. There just wasn't anything that felt like a good fit for BDH and Little Buddha, so that was a little disappointing. The guys said not to worry about it, and that we'll just try again next week. Those two are great at keeping a positive attitude about everything. They also want to give you a heads up that the Clearing out the Clutter store is returning next week, so keep an eye out for that! I see today is going to... Read more →

Hi folks, How are you? Tropical Storm Henri is gone. It turned out to just be some regular rain that arrived here last night, so that's good. BDH and Little Buddha were getting a little tired of studying the hourly weather forecasts by the end of the day on Monday. With any luck, I'll be able to reward them for their hard work by finding a new release at the local bookstore later this morning. Our schedule is little jumbled after that. Maybe we'll watch some more Lucifer while sitting in front of the fan because of this crazy humidity.... Read more →

Hi everyone, How are you? I struck out at the bookstore yesterday, so feel free to drop us a line at info@clearingouttheclutter.com if you have any suggestions about what BDH and Little Buddha should read next. The guys say the ugly stretch of the week is almost upon us. Apparently there is a heat watch that lasts from noon today until 8:00 on Friday night. Yikes. I better mow the lawn as soon as we're done here before the fun starts. There's one other errand that I also should do, but we'll see where things are at after the lawn... Read more →

Hi folks, How are you? We hope you had a great weekend. No complaints on this end. Got in a little garden time, had dinner with Dad Clutter, there was finally some Doctor Who news, and BDH and Little Buddha continue to enjoy their latest book. We have a fairly busy week ahead, so the guys were just checking out the weather forecast to make sure there won't be any major problems with the schedule. It doesn't look like we will have to deal with any rain until Thursday, so that's good. In the meantime, let's get to work. There's... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How was your weekend? Saturday was fine here, but yesterday was a mess. I'm not sure what that was all about, although my guess is it had something to do with a few nights of bad sleep. I got off to a productive start in the morning, and then things just fell apart. Ended up being out of sorts all day, which wasn't fun. BDH and Little Buddha eventually suggested maybe it was just one of those days, and we should start again after a good night's sleep, so that's what we did, and now we're... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? We're doing fine at the moment, but I struck out at the bookstore yesterday, so that was a little disappointing. I briefly considered a couple of the new releases, but none of them seemed like anything BDH and Little Buddha would love to read. Maybe we'll get lucky next week. It's pretty dark outside once again this morning. However, the guys say the forecast doesn't call for more rain until this afternoon, so I'll tackle the to-do list after we're done here. First, let's take a peek at the headlines. There's a fresh... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? Yesterday's weather forecast turned out to be legitimate. We had a steady rain which made the garden happy, and when the garden is happy, our crew is happy (even though I struck out at the bookstore.) BDH and Little Buddha say today should be lovely, with highs topping out in the mid 70's. That sounds like perfect weather for taking care of today's errands without having to worry about heat stroke. Let's kick off the productivity by sorting through the headlines. The guys made coffee, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, and a happy Friday to you all! Congratulations on making it through another week! Wasn't entirely sure I'd get through it in one piece yesterday. I was taking a long walk to enjoy the gorgeous weather, and I started to cross the intersection, as a car approached from my left. I absolutely had the right of way but did not wait for him to come to a complete stop first. Big mistake, because he rolled right through the intersection, never looking in my direction, and he would have clipped me if I hadn't jumped out of... Read more →
