Concusion?

Luke had a bad fall onto a sharp object which put a big lump on his head and cause him to scream loudly.  He did not pass out but cried all the way up the stairs at the Horn’s house.  He looked terrible and laid in his mother’s arms for a while as limp as [...]

Now I’m sick.

Bummer.

Best Burgers in Anchorage: Tony’s Burger Stop

Does anyone CARE what I ate for lunch?  Usually, I just eat the cheapest, healthiest meal I can find that will leave my blood-sugar level at an even keel. And usually, that’s two bean & cheese burritos that I buy by the package at $4.80 for 10 burritos. I love this meal, because it’s cheap, [...]

Mark is sicker than a dog…

Mark was sick all day yesterday, throwing up regularly, I hear.  He vomitted once while I was home–blueberries.  From across the room, in the bottom of the pan, they actually looked kind of good… Let’s not think about that. I got a new HD in the mail yesterday.  It’s the new 750 GB seagate drive–so [...]
