Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. BDH, Little Buddha, and I were all up at 4:45 this morning. Not sure what that was all about. Rainy days like this usually make us sleepy, so we'll try to be as productive as possible before getting ready for bed at 5:00 tonight. In any case, the guys made some coffee, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Tuesday Clutter. A Florida judge said there's no evidence of fraud in last week's election and he urged everyone to turn down the rhetoric casting... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. BDH, Little Buddha, and I were just talking about the fact that it's Election Day. The guys want to know if they can vote today, but I had to remind them that we voted early this year, so they asked me to remind you to get out and express your views at your local polling place. They're so excited to watch the results come in tonight, I don't know how I'm going to keep them busy in the meantime. I think they still have at least one book to read.... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. We were just checking out the weather forecast. Looks like we've got a little heat wave coming for the next couple of days. Hmm, I better get my bike ride in earlier rather than later today. BDH and Little Buddha say they're happy to keep an eye on things here (and stay in front of the fans) while I'm gone. They also say that the coffee is ready. There's a fresh pot on the counter, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Tuesday Clutter.... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? Things are good on this end at the moment. It's a little chilly in here this morning, but that's not going to last long, according to the weather forecast. We're looking at highs of 85-95 for the next few days, so summer isn't over just yet. That works for us, maybe we'll get a few late-arriving guests in the garden. In the meantime, there are headlines to sort through and coffee to be enjoyed. The guys made a fresh pot, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? We were just discussing how foggy it is this morning. It looks like the opening to a mystery novel or something. Not thrilled that sunrise is starting later now, but we've all slept better for the last few days because of the reduced humidity, so I guess it's a trade-off. One thing that we're never willing to compromise about around here is coffee. BDH and Little Buddha say it's ready to go, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear out some Tuesday Clutter. Microsoft announced that it... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? BDH and Little Buddha were just trying to figure out why the birds are chatting up such a storm this morning. BDH thinks they're talking about their weekend plans, and Little Buddha thinks they're discussing how quickly this summer has gone by. Hold on, now they both think the birds were discussing what time you would arrive. Now that we've got that resolved, let's see what's going on in today's headlines. There's a fresh pot of coffee on the counter, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How's your week going? It's been pretty productive around here so far. I managed to get a bike ride in yesterday after all because the weather forecast was wrong again. I'm not sure why I even check it anymore since it seems to have been off more than usual over the last few weeks, but in any case, it felt good to get out there. It was such a treat, that I'll save my thoughts about the days getting darker earlier for another time. For now, BDH and Little Buddha made some coffee, so help yourself... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, you're just in time for the party! What party, you ask? Today is Clearing out the Clutter's 9th anniversary! We've got cake, cookies, balloons, and all sorts of other goodies. BDH and Little Buddha have been looking forward to this all week, and I'm pretty sure they've already had too many cookies, because they're racing around Clutter Headquarters with their party hats on and their noisemakers at full blast. As always, we want to thank all of you for giving us a little bit of your time every day. We never take that for granted. You... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How are you? Yesterday's neck pain worked itself out, so I'm moving much more easily this morning. However, I had a little difficulty getting to sleep last night after yesterday's football games, so we might need to go a little heavy on the coffee today. Fortunately, BDH and Little Buddha say we've got plenty. They've got a fresh pot ready to go, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Monday Clutter! Hand problem? What hand problem? Tom Brady and company took care of business... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How's your weekend going? Yesterday was productive on this end, as I crossed a number of errands off the old to-do list, which was nice. I also started reading a new book. It's called Good Omens, and it was written by Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman. It's the story of an angel and a demon who are trying to prevent the coming Rapture. Only a few chapters into it, but it's been very entertaining so far. All of that has almost been enough for me to be able to ignore... Read more →
