grounded design by Thomas Rainer: April is the Cruelest Month
http://landscapeofmeaning.blogspot.com/2014/03/april-is-cruelest-month.html
Monday, March 31, 2014. April is the Cruelest Month. April is the cruelest month . . . ". That line has confused me for years. Is it cruel? April is the springiest month, when elementary school teachers paste tulips and yellow galoshes to bulletin boards, and little old ladies dress up for church looking like pastel Easter eggs. But the gardener understands the cruelty of April. The derivation of the word April can be traced as far back as Varro, where the etymology,. This month I am a fool, a rioter, a ...

Wednesday, January 23, 2008. On the home improvement front - my mission to Jersey was successful! My super handy youngest son came back to Pittsburgh with me for a week and we made up a deck plan, a materials list, priced it all out and are ready to go as soon as weather permits. In the meantime he installed some much needed under-cabinet lighting in the kitchen and I hung the TV on the wall in the living room. What a good move that was! Friday, January 11, 2008. Wednesday, January 02, 2008. I mentioned ...

American Foursquare: Dismantling a Sofa
http://americanfoursquare.blogspot.com/2008/09/dismantling-sofa.html
Monday, September 15, 2008. That's going to be the big challenge of the day. No, I've never tried it before and frankly the thought is making me feel a little queasy - but, I don't think we have a choice. My first reaction to the the "how are we gonna get anything up here? Question was to think "Fire Escape! Here's the plan: Carefully remove the fabric from the underside and the back of the sofa, look inside to see what we can cut and then re-attach to get the back away from the seat and "wing it". I...

American Foursquare: One More - About that Sofa
http://americanfoursquare.blogspot.com/2008/10/one-more-about-that-sofa.html
Wednesday, October 01, 2008. One More - About that Sofa. So, why did we go to this extreme? Here are a couple more pics of her place. Excuse the camera phone quality. I'm thrilled with how her kitchen turned out. When we first arrived every wall was stark white - the tiny countertop was stained and scored, the greasy wooden cabinets were hanging off the wall, and there was an eyesore of a hot water heater to the left of the stove. Wow, thank you for the pictures! The place turned out SO WONDERFUL!

DogMogBlog: Close Calls
http://dogmogblog.blogspot.com/2010/06/close-calls.html
They depend on me. Why can't I deduct them? Monday, June 7, 2010. When I was on restricted activity post-op, I arranged for the neighbors down the street to come and feed the animals and especially, to take Llewellyn out to the alley to do his business. If I had him properly leash trained I could've done it myself early on, but noooo, he's still tugging and pulling at the best of times. And if he sees another dog, it's Katie, bar the door! Definitely in the category of Heavy Lifting. I do not know. Llewe...

DogMogBlog: August 2010
http://dogmogblog.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
They depend on me. Why can't I deduct them? Tuesday, August 3, 2010. Less than five minutes ago I harvested my first Pink Brandywine tomato of the season. I set it on the counter, and went upstairs to get my camera to document the occasion. In less than a minute I returned to the kitchen, to find the tomato gone and my dog Llewellyn in the dining room having a last chomp. So, was it good, sir? Did it meet your expectations? And don't you know tomatoes are supposed to be bad for you? Links to this post.

They depend on me. Why can't I deduct them? Friday, May 28, 2010. I really should make a resolution to write something for this puppy at least once a week. It's not that I take my critters for granted, it's just that they are so consistently cute that I don't find myself jonesing to write about it. And when they're naughty . . . well, it's not really nice to talk in public about the rude things your kids do, is it? Nevertheless . . . here's some pictures to be going on with.
