We got a nice little Christmas present from DirecTV last night. They have begun to broadcast our local TV stations in High Definition. This is a big deal for us because we don’t watch very many TV shows if they are in standard definition any more. It’s just not as enjoyable. Living in the country, […]
A Bad Day For Sue Ellen
December 13, 2007 by Leave a Comment
Yesterday, was not a good day for our dog Sue Ellen. And hence, it wasn;t the best of days for us either. Sue Ellen is a pretty good dog who pretty much stays out of trouble. I think mostly because she is pretty stupid. But, she is great with the kids and doesn’t cause many […]

I managed to finish up my Christmas shopping this year this weekend. It did take me about an hour on Friday and then another 2 hours on Saturday. That’s probably more shopping than I do in the course of the rest of the year. Of course, I took the easy way out and shopped online. […]
