New Years Resolutions
Well, I’ve been living in my house for about 10 months now. We’ve done a lot of work, and I’ve learned so very much. Funny how things change. Last year my biggest resolution was to read 12 books in 12 months. I successfully read 13 — even though I didn’t start until May!! Can you…

Shiny New Gutters
Oh, to be a home owner. The most insignificant things just thrill me. Who would have ever thought I’d be so excited about GUTTERS? Not I. But I am, because I didn’t have them on the back of my house. Now they are shiny and new and beautiful. I’m pumped!
