ennaneve: March 2010
http://ennaneve.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 2, 2010. My sister's blog. functional, fun and fantastic! Have I mentioned that I come from a long line of thrifty, creative, do-it-yourselfer ladies? Yeah, I guess I have. Anyway, this post is just to add a little solid proof to that claim! Check out my older sister's blog, Cookie Cutter House. Follow her and her husband on their many DIY projects, ranging from laying tile to re-purposing plates. It's a fun, fresh look at how to make the most out of what you've got. Well, they are! I rece...

TinMan Dan's Heartless Rant: Bah! Hospitals!
http://tinmandan.blogspot.com/2008/12/bah-hospitals.html
TinMan Dan's Heartless Rant. Cynicism in its purest form. Sunday, December 21, 2008. It's three o'clock in the morning. I'm sitting on a somewhat hard couch, feeling exhausted but energetic at the same time. My wife is sitting upright in bed, singing softly to our little girl. Or, should I say, our new. We're pretty stoked about the whole thing. In fact, here's a photo of the little cutie:. She even looks pretty when she's glaring at me for slapping a santa hat on her head after her latest feeding! I, a ...

Life in This Old Bungalow: September 2013
http://tobungalow.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Life in This Old Bungalow. Our journey from 109 year-old house to 109 year-old home. Friday, September 6, 2013. Let's try this again. I've been reading all the blogs about life, family, home repair, happiness, cooking, etc lately, checking out all the fancy pictures and wondered exactly how long it's been since I last blogged myself. Um, wow. Over a year and a half. Awesome. Maybe I should just wait and make it an even two years. Or maybe I should get over it. And try again. And she was all like "No!

Diplofam: Love at First Sight
http://diplofam.blogspot.com/2014/11/love-at-first-sight.html
Love at First Sight. Almost one year ago I fell in love with a sweet little face. Her picture was on a Chinese adoption advocacy site on Facebook. Here are the words that accompanied her photo:. On that day last December I left the following comment:. And that began our Journey to DouDou. Dou Dou is 3 years old, turning 4 in February. Pearl says 'Dou Dou' when we point to her picture but honestly, she has no idea what is coming. It will be a big adjustment that we are already praying about. Friends and F...

TinMan Dan's Heartless Rant: White Christmas....?
http://tinmandan.blogspot.com/2008/12/white-christmas.html
TinMan Dan's Heartless Rant. Cynicism in its purest form. Wednesday, December 24, 2008. I'd like to beat Bing Crosby with a sack of doorknobs for singing that dumb song. Oh, wait. He's dead. No matter.I'd beat him senseless anyway. Just to set the record straight, I don't dream of white Christmases - I'm a midwesterner. Yesterday, I was kicking back on the couch, watching "Monsters, Inc." with my wife and two daughters (hee hee.I have two. But hey - at least I was able to finish the job! But first I'm ro...

TinMan Dan's Heartless Rant: July 2009
http://tinmandan.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
TinMan Dan's Heartless Rant. Cynicism in its purest form. Thursday, July 30, 2009. Anyone STILL think criminals are smart? Just a quick post today. In checking the headlines, I noticed that a young woman in Florida carjacked a driver, drove the car to a local RV dealership, and attempted to rob the place before she was subdued by the store's employees. The interesting point: she did it all while wearing nothing but a bikini (hence the media's decision to dub her the "Bikini Bandit.". To the woman whose c...

TinMan Dan's Heartless Rant: July 2008
http://tinmandan.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
TinMan Dan's Heartless Rant. Cynicism in its purest form. Thursday, July 10, 2008. I can't stand bad drivers! And I'm not just talking about people who feel it's their moral duty to cruise down the interstate at fifteen miles under the speed limit. No, I'm referring to those moronic individuals who, thanks to their incredibly poor motoring skills, make the world more dangerous for the rest of us. Good I have two. Dead in the middle of the intersection, no less! Bad drivers, beware! You'd better improve y...

Diplofam: Guatemala with my Girl
http://diplofam.blogspot.com/2014/12/guatemala-with-my-girl.html
Guatemala with my Girl. 19 days ago I boarded a plane with my oldest daughter Anne. Just the two of us- headed for Guatemala and the Village of Hope for a mother/daughter mission trip. Anne and I had been planning for this trip for over a year. We had saved all of the money from the things we sold before we left Bermuda and our church here in Michigan gave us $1500- so all of our expenses were covered. One of the things that I have always loved about Anne is that she jumps right into a new situation with...

Life in This Old Bungalow. Our journey from 109 year-old house to 109 year-old home. Thursday, July 15, 2010. We've got a few things - other than my belly - growing around this next of the woods. The vegetable garden has started to really take off! They used to be just lil' guys. The "Early Girl" tomato plant, dubbed the kudzu tomato, takes the cake so far. Now, all those green fruits need to turn red! The tater tot earned it's appropriate pronoun today. She was being a bit stubborn.must be Dutch. I was ...

http://tobungalow.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Life in This Old Bungalow. Our journey from 109 year-old house to 109 year-old home. Saturday, October 16, 2010. 33 weeks and counting. It's hard to believe it's already been 33 weeks and that Baby Girl Buma is about 7 weeks away from entry to the "real" world. We've been working on little things around the house.like trying to pick up after ourselves, getting things organized and packing away things that used to live in the future nursery. It's all a work in progress and it's moving slowly. Chris and I ...
