Hi everyone, Welcome back. How are you? It's a good thing I turned on the heat last night. It's 29 degrees outside right now. 29 degrees. In the second half of May. Don't like that one little bit. This freeze flash should be over in a couple of hours. I just hope it didn't wreck the garden. The birds are chirping, and BDH and Little Buddha are sure they're asking each other if they came back north too early this year. You want to check out the headlines while we wait for things to warm up around here? Let's do... Read more →

Hi folks, Welcome back, and a happy Monday to you all. Did you enjoy the rest of your weekend? As expected, yesterday was pretty quiet around here while I recovered from my booster shot. I'm generally feeling better now. However, today will also probably be low-key, because most of the afternoon is blocked off for a furnace maintenance appointment. Gotta make sure we don't have any heating problems this winter. I also might need to take a nap to make sure I stay awake for tonight's New England Patriots game. In any case, let's get to work. BDH and Little... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? The wind finally died down yesterday, so I slept much better last night. Wait, what's this? BDH and Little Buddha say today will also be windy? Son of a...hold on, they forgot to refresh the page. We're looking at a sunny day with a high of 60 degrees and not much wind. Much better. The guys need something new to read, so we're heading to the bookstore after we're done here. First, let's go through the headlines. There's a fresh pot of coffee on the counter, so grab yourself a nice medium DD,... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? We missed you! It's probably a good thing for our crew to take a couple of days off every now and again. You know, recharge the batteries and all that. However, it doesn't take long before we get a little antsy because we haven't seen you. Did you have a nice Christmas? It was good to see Dad Clutter and his crew. (It was a small group, and there were masks and social distancing involved, of course.) The biggest winner of the day was Miguel the cat who enjoyed his presents, which were... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Congratulations on making it through another week. Do you have anything special lined up this weekend? It will probably be pretty quiet here. However, BDH and Little Buddha are still researching how to cut your own hair at home, so that could make things more interesting. They tell me it's supposed to rain for a good part of the day tomorrow, which would be great, because this humidity is already too much. Anyway, let's check out today's headlines. The guys made coffee, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear out some... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, and congratulations on making it through another week! Let's focus on what an accomplishment that is, and not that the weather forecast calls for snow tomorrow. It shouldn't last all that long, so at least there's that. My only hope is that it doesn't wreck the tulips, but in any case, it's a good thing I already put down the compost. Anyway, the sun is shining, and the guys say the coffee is ready. Grab yourself a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Friday Clutter. Donald Trump won't have to pardon disgraced former national... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? BDH and Little Buddha just checked the weather forecast, and it looks like we're talking about up to four inches of snow today. That's not so bad, I guess. I'll have to remember to stretch before I start shoveling. We're down to the final two weeks of the month/year/decade. Any last minute-goals? I asked the guys what they wanted to do, and they said they were good as long as we could all hang out together (and maybe watch some more Chicago Fire reruns.) We've got a good crew here. They just made... 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! Come on in, have a seat. How's your weekend going so far? We had a decent amount of running around yesterday, so today might be a little quieter. I might let the yard and garden beds thaw out for another week before I start raking leaves. We're still having some chilly nights here, and the leaves provide some cover for the plants, so yeah, maybe we'll start next weekend. BDH and Little Buddha just got a new book yesterday, so we'll have some reading time later. For now, let's check out today's headlines. The guys say... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How are you? Everyone is here is fine, although I'm still working out my sinus issues. Friday ended up being a productive day, even though I woke up at 3:00. Hoping today will be the same, even though it started at 4:00. BDH and Little Buddha have been terrific as always, and they're confident that we'll get everything back on track soon. In the meantime, they made plenty of coffee, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Sunday Clutter. Donald Trump continues to hold... Read more →
