FireflyMom was over today keeping herself busy by helpfully working on the deck. She’s the only one that really knows what’s going on with it to be honest. Anyway, somewhere along the way she helped Firefly install a cat door at the front entrance. I got home and began the training as I have done […]

Ugh… other than a delicious shellfish dinner for my Dad’s birthday today (Happy birthday Dad!), and sleeping in late, what a day. Started nice, a lazy day around the house, get some cleaning done, laundry, maybe some surfing or gaming maybe, you know, standard stuff. I started the laundry, went upstairs. I knew that my
