Ahhhh yes – this week my kids returned to school. And that, I hope, means I can find my routine again. The summer my ex-wife moved out 2 years ago was a complete train wreck. This summer was easier but still full of challenges – especially for someone who doesn’t look that far ahead in [...]
It’s heating up in the desert which makes for some active evening critters. I live on the fringe of Tucson in an area that is still mostly desert so I have frequent encounters with things I prefer not be in my yard – mostly because I have kids. I like most reptiles so I like [...]
I let my satellite radio subscription die. I’m not really sure why because it’s not that expensive. I regret my decision. There are ads on satellite radio but there are also loads of channels so it’s easy to jump from one to the next and avoid ads. I’m not a big fan of all the [...]
A few weeks ago I received a nice note from Shannon Willits – a fellow survivor of divorce who had relocated to Tucson and had visited my blog. He said he liked what I was up to and suggested I use my ex-wife’s wedding dress as a patch for a damaged screen door . . [...]
It was a year ago today that my buddy Greg told me my I-Web blog sucked in the back of his warehouse near downtown Tucson. He thought the content was good but knowing a bit more about the workings of the internet than I do he told me I needed to step it up and [...]
I got back from a little vacation a couple of days ago. My fiancee and I ran off to Tulum for 4 days … a little bit south of Cancun in Mexico. A lot of people freak out when you tell them you are going to travel to Mexico but Tulum is a great place [...]
This wedding dress application was suggested by many but for whatever reason I didn’t start using my ex-wife’s wedding dress for this purpose until recently. I have been taking to the road on a two-wheeler since college and have had the same ride for 17 years. It isn’t the most practical way to travel between [...]
I still have my wedding ring sitting in a drawer in my kitchen. It’s gold but I’m under the impression that it’s not worth very much even though gold is worth something like $1300/ounce these days. I haven’t put any thought into to what to do with it but I got an e-mail recently that [...]
So, technically vent filter would be dress use #75 but I have thrown in the towel on keeping count. My buddy Dan gave me the suggestion in the early days of brainstorming ideas – thanks man. The final draft for the book I have been working on was turned in a couple of weeks ago [...]
The Arizona wildcats pulled off a nail biter against Memphis in the NCAA tourney earlier today. I have to think that if my ex-wife’s wedding dress could have taken to the road to support them the margin of victory would have been far greater than 2. I hope the game on Sunday is less interesting [...]
