It was quicker and easier this time, since I have this rain barrel process down. Each time I make one, I've improved the process a bit. The hardest part of the whole thing is getting all the concrete blocks to the same height. so that the other 2 barrels fill up from the lead one. Anyway, they are done. Posted by James @ 10:04 AM. Saturday, July 29, 2006. The catch is tha...

Simple Living in a Complex Society. A little slice of one man's life. Wednesday, November 30, 2005. Good News from a Good Friend. Congratulations Brian and Dominique! I'm very excited for your new addition to your family! I started that 14 years ago and now Kyle is almost as tall as I am! On another note, we had a bit of excitement in the neighborhood last night. At about 9:45 we had a rather heavy wind/rainstorm and a loud thump! Kyle called tonight to tell me that he wants to participate in his high sc...

Simple Living in a Complex Society. A little slice of one man's life. Monday, January 30, 2006. Rest or trying to. I'm not remembering how to handle this resting thing. I feel like I should be doing something to get the project done. But what? I guess I could go to the Home Depot and pick up a door handle for Samuel's room, after I drop him off to the Kung Fu. Mary and Eliza went up to Pennsylvania today so Eliza could visit a University. I forget which one. Posted by James @ 6:07 PM. New" Car for Tori.

Simple Living in a Complex Society. A little slice of one man's life. Thursday, May 25, 2006. Been a while since. I have been dealing with quite a bit in the old simple life. Working some long hours, so that Mary and I can run off to North Carolina this weekend. Been riding Zippy to work most days. Mary has an "alergic" cough, that she hasn't been able to shake for about 3 weeks now. Not much else going on. Posted by James @ 5:07 PM. Wednesday, May 17, 2006. It is a quick bite, then we're off! Mary asked...

Simple Living in a Complex Society. A little slice of one man's life. Thursday, March 30, 2006. Job Searching can be a "little" stressful! I'm considering going for government jobs, using my VA benifit to my advantage. I'll be looking this weekend while visiting with my parents. The wonderful thing about the internet (and the jobs I'm looking for) is that they are mostly all online! Something to work off the stress of the last few days? Something that I love to do on beautiful sunny spring days? Today my...

Simple Living in a Complex Society. A little slice of one man's life. Sunday, August 27, 2006. Eliza is in the air! We dropped our outbound daughter at Dulles this afternoon. We had an enjoyable ride out to the airport. We stopped for lunch at a little Thai restaurant that Mary knew in Alexandria. It was good, but Eliza couldn't eat much. I guess she was way too excited to eat anything much. I'm so proud of her. She did everything that she needed to do to make this happen. Now I can devote the time to ge...

Simple Living in a Complex Society. A little slice of one man's life. Sunday, February 26, 2006. Getaway Weekend at Raphael Inn, Gettysburg PA. Eliza had a MANDATORY meeting with the Rotarians. Who are going to send her to Hungary. The meeting was near Gettysburg PA, so Mary planned a way to get Eliza to her 2 night stay meeting, while Mary and I had a getaway weekend. All in all, it was a very restful weekend for me. While we were out, we saw some soldiers in Union uniform, and also some in Confederate ...

I love the silly things, and some times I've had to make 48 at a time! Just to keep up with my hungry brood! So I make chocolate, chocolate chunck muffins, Pumpkin spice muffins, Orange-cranberry muffins, blueberry muffins, banana-nut muffins, "plain" cinnamon muffins, Ginger-spice muffins and oh, pumpkin-pie muffins.

Simple Living in a Complex Society. A little slice of one man's life. Friday, April 28, 2006. The garden path, so I rode the scooter to the store and picked up some weed mat. I put down the weed mat, and covered it with the FREE woodchips that Mary got for us earlier. I still have about half the pile out there to use for other things as we need. Perhaps Mary and I can have a quiet night at home? I do have some DVDs that I'd like to look at. Posted by James @ 4:05 PM. Wednesday, April 26, 2006. I need to ...
