We will be moving in a few weeks to Salem. Because of packing, cleaning, stomach acid maintenance and more I will be taking a brief hiatus from blogging. There will be limited posting here until mid-July. In the mean time be sure to check out my other site: CoffeeDaze.com (The Caffeinated Community). There’s a lot [...]

We have suffered through multiple strollers over the years with our kids. I’m often left wondering what the designers were thinking when they made the device. Yesterday we bought a Kolcraft Contour Tandem and after using for a day I can say it is the best designed stroller I have ever seen or used. [...]

Since the last one was a few days late I thought I would try and get this one done a day early. The theme this week is of course one of my favorites… Coffee.
I’m not sure what all happened in Photoshop to have this one come out. I started with a black cup of coffee [...]

Well, we got the green light to move. Our loan went through and we are officially looking for a new place in Salem. The hard part will be finding a big enough place in the south side that we can afford. I don’t want to live in the same type of dump neighborhood we currently [...]

Sorry, I Like Vista

If you follow the mass-bleating of numerous bloggers (yes, I realize I am a blogger too), you may have picked up on the fact that there are a few people not terribly impressed with Microsoft Vista. I use Vista Ultimate (Service Pack 1) on a 3.0 GHz dual core with 2GB RAM and an NVIDIA [...]
