Hi everyone, Welcome back, and a happy Monday to you all! We hope you're enjoying the long weekend. Everything is humming along here at the moment. We had fun celebrating Dad Clutter's birthday last night, so that was nice. BDH and Little Buddha added a couple of errands to this week's to-do list, but I'm not sure if any of the relevant stores are open today, so I need to look into that when we're done here. First, let's check out today's headlines. The guys say the coffee is ready, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because it's time... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? We got caught in a little bit of holiday traffic yesterday. I sort of forgot this is a long weekend. Fortunately, BDH and Little Buddha just napped while we slowly made our way down the road. The big excitement here is that today is Dad Clutter's birthday. I'm sure we'll be raging until the wee hours, and by that I mean, I think we're just doing a small dinner. He doesn't like to make a big deal out of these things. Other than that, it's business as usual. The guys just made coffee,... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, and a happy Friday to you all! How is it Friday already, anyway? This week went by quickly. Any big plans for the weekend? Dad Clutter's birthday is on Sunday, so that will be fun. Other than that, there's nothing too crazy on the schedule here, apart from raking leaves and continuing with yard work, weather permitting. Speaking of weather, yesterday's big rain forecast was another disappointment. There was some wind, and I kept thinking a storm was coming soon, but it never reached us. We've got the same outlook for today, so we'll see if... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? The forecast calls for rain again all day today. It didn't really happen yesterday, but BDH and Little Buddha encouraged me to take my umbrella anyway when I head out later this morning. Better safe than sorry, and all that. I think I might have to turn on the heat in here pretty soon. The three of us can handle the slight chill, but it's not great for the plants. That's going to require the usual moving things around to get some of them away from the radiator. For now, let's check out... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! What's new? This week got off to a solid start with a productive Monday. I took care of every mandatory task on the to-do list and then managed to work in what was probably my last outdoor bike ride of the year, so that made me happy. The rain took a little longer than expected (again) to arrive, but the garden eventually got a good soaking, so things are good. There's a whole new set of errands to deal with today, but they can wait a little bit longer. First, let's see what's going on in... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? Saturday was a little ugly around here. Not really sure what happened. I think I've been fighting off a bad mood, like one fights off a cold, for a few days, and I lost the fight yesterday. Entering the driveway is a tight turn, and I didn't take it very well yesterday. Fortunately, none of the plants seemed to be damaged, but next thing I know, I'm in a raging bad mood that I could not stop. Of course, that's when Dad Clutter asked me to help him with an errand, so that... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, and a happy Friday to you all! What's on the schedule for the weekend? I know we've got yard work, and the Patriots are playing on Sunday. Dad Clutter's birthday is coming up soon, so we should figure out something for that. (If you've got any present suggestions, email them to bitsofclutter@gmail.com.) Other than that, it should be pretty quiet around here, which works for us. For now, let's check out today's headlines. BDH and Little Buddha say the coffee is ready, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear out some... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? Did anyone else have a weird day yesterday? I was in trouble right from the start. Didn't feel that focused when I woke up, (hopefully) got it together in time to hang out with all of you, and then it was just hard to focus for the rest of the day. I ended up being somewhat productive when it was all said and done, but every activity felt like a challenge. Don't know what that was all about. BDH and Little Buddha think I was just dealing with the fact that it's already... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. It looks like October is off to a wet start. That's fine. Even though we're in the process of cutting back the garden, the plants can still use a good watering until the temperatures drop a little more. We also need to start thinking about what BDH and Little Buddha will be for Halloween this year, so drop us a line at bitsofclutter@gmail.com if you have any suggestions. In the meantime, let's check out today's headlines. The guys just made coffee, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because it's... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How are you? BDH and Little Buddha were just telling me that there's already less than 12 hours between the day's sunrise and sunset. Ugh. In much more positive news, they also say that today's coffee is ready. There's a fresh pot on the counter, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Sunday Clutter. (As always, if you'd like to support our coffee budget, please consider using the Clutter Amazon page for your shopping needs.) There's been a lot of news on the Donald Trump... Read more →
