Brett is watching LOST which I don’t watch so I’m actually finishing some blogs that I started a while ago.  I love writing, but I hate editing and re-reading so there are few piled up here in my DRAFTS.  I also have a problem doing things out of chronological order or “out of order” at […]

A dang-it day, is a day when you just keep saying dang-it, or worse.  Dang-it I should have done this. Dang-it I wish I would have done that.  Dang-it….I need some food now. You get the picture.
