Hi everyone, Welcome back. How are you? No luck at the bookstore yesterday, but the rest of the to-do list went well, so I'll take it. BDH and Little Buddha said there are only a few errands to take care of today, and then we'll wait to see if this expected snow actually arrives. The current forecast calls for 2-7 inches. I think it's supposed to be the light stuff, but then there's also talk of rain tomorrow, so things could get messy. We'll just have to stay on top of the shoveling. For now, let's take a peek at...

Hi everyone, How are you? I eventually made it outside yesterday to handle the to-do list. BDH and Little Buddha were pleased about that, because they want me to do the same thing again today. I guess that's okay, it shouldn't be too cold, and we definitely need to take care of these items before that snow potentially arrives tomorrow-Thursday. My biggest hope is that I find something new for the guys to read from the local bookstore. Any suggestions? We'll check out this week's new releases. First, let's sort through today's headlines. There's a fresh pot of coffee on... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back. How are you? BDH and Little Buddha tried their best to avoid this, but it looks like I have to do some running around today which involves both holiday traffic and potentially freezing rain. Not thrilled about that, but there really doesn't seem to be any way around it. The guys reminded me that the key is to not be in a rush for any part of the errands, and to drive carefully. They also said not to worry about visiting the bookstore - we'll get back that next week. For now, let's take a peek... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, and a happy Friday to you all. We've gotten a fair amount of rain over the last 24 hours, which is good. It just ended, but BDH and Little Buddha say some more should come tomorrow, which is great, because we sure do need it. Oh, and the Amazon package we were waiting for yesterday came at noon, long before the 10:00 p.m. deadline, which made BDH and Little Buddha twice as happy. The guys need their sleep, and staying up late is generally not their thing. What's on tap for this weekend? We have a... Read more →

Hi everyone, How are you? BDH and Little Buddha are keeping an eye on the weather forecast to make sure it still calls for rain for most of today. We usually wouldn't be rooting so hard for precipitation, but it's way too dry around here. The to-do list isn't that long, and the biggest item is really just waiting for an Amazon delivery to arrive. It's currently scheduled to get here by 10:00 tonight. However, that's well past our crew's bedtime, so hopefully it will be closer to somewhere near 5:00 at the latest. Anyway, let's get started. There's a... Read more →

Hi everyone, How are you? No luck at the bookstore yesterday. I skimmed through Bill Clinton and Cher's new memoirs, but neither seemed quite right for BDH and Little Buddha. Hopefully we'll find something next week. The guys were unfazed - they're focusing on the fact that tomorrow's weather forecast calls for some much-needed rain. That means I should probably take care of a little bit of yard work this afternoon after I finish everything else on today's to-do list. Are you ready to check out the headlines? Let's do it. There's a fresh pot of coffee on the counter,... Read more →

Hi everyone, How are you? Our crew is doing okay, although it feels like this week is just flying by again. BDH and Little Buddha said today's to-do list isn't anything crazy. The big item is what is hopefully just a quick stop to the auto mechanic, but assuming that's not a big deal, the rest of the day should be pretty manageable. Are you ready to get to work? Let's do it. The guys made coffee, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear out some Thursday Clutter. Here comes the insanity: Donald Trump has... Read more →

Hi everyone, Happy Friday and November 1 to you. What's the plan for this weekend? There are two major items on our to-do list: 1) I have to remember to turn our clocks back on Sunday. Not looking forward to that. Yes, the extra hour of sleep is nice, but now we start talking about 4:30 p.m. sunsets. Bleah. 2) Much to our great disappointment, we didn't have any trick-or-treaters last night, so now I also need to make sure BDH and Little Buddha don't eat all of the leftover candy this weekend. It doesn't take much to get them... Read more →

Hi everyone, Happy Halloween! BDH and Little Buddha didn't dress up this year, but they're still looking forward to celebrating tonight. First off, they love giving away candy to kids and seeing all of their costumes. Second, they won't object if it turns out yours truly bought too much, because they get to handle the left-overs (in moderate amounts each time.) Really, it's a win-win. The number of trick-or-treaters we get seems to fluctuate each year, but given the weather forecast, we should get a good amount of traffic. In the meantime, let's check out the headlines. The guys made... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, and a happy Friday to you all. What's the plan for this weekend? Dad Clutter's birthday is our big event, so that will be fun. Other than that, we'll probably just play it by ear and see what happens with the weather. Are you ready to check out the headlines? Let's get to work. BDH and Little Buddha say the coffee is ready, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear out some Clutter. Former President Barack Obama criticized Donald Trump for being a bully yesterday, and he also called out men... Read more →
