mice


Mike and I had a mouse infestation, I successfully sealed up where they were coming in and thankfully never ended up catching one in the mouse electrocution chamber. I did use this parsnip tail to scare Mike though. it was my first time roasting root vegetables, I always thought I hated beats until I had them roasted and now I love them.

New glass block windows!


I know this doesn't seem like much but a lot of time and thought and dollars went into these windows. I'm so happy to finally have them, they let in light, keep out the cold wind, squirrelly mice and terrifying killers.

water bill


I'm surprised our first bill averages out to 45/mo. what are all these penalties on the bill? what did I do wrong that I need to be penalized? I've never paid directly for water before and I wonder how our usage compares, I don't think I use a lot of water.

Dying to make a will

Yeah, So I was going to have a will drawn up tomorrow but we're supposed to get all this snow right when I have to go the stupid burbs and all over the city. I'm canceling my appointment, wouldn't that be crazy if I died going to get my will?

In case you are wondering, it's going to (e:Mike). I'm being buried in a pine box right away without embalming...I like forest lawn if they are still doing the green burial.

Goodbye Maureen

Today I saw (e:maureen)’s obituary and it kinda gave me a gasp, it was just so real, when it hasn't seemed real at all. Maureen would never have been in my life if it weren't for Mike, and Mike and I are still together because of Maureen. I’m so fortunate to have realized, before it was too late, that I love Mike so much, and I can’t imagine what it would be like without him. Maureen compliments Mike in such a beautiful way, and now there is a part of Mike that is missing, and it is so hard to know, and see, how much pain he is in.

I’m so thankful to be a small part of Maureen’s life; I wish her well wherever she is. To all who loves her, I wish you comfort and lasting memories of her true beauty.
