Adventures Of A Stay At Home Dad

Uggg . . . finally have a few minutes to myself. Days can become so hectic and busy with children that its difficult to find the time to do those silly things adults like to do like bathe or go to the bathroom. For those that think you might try working at home [...]

Don’t worry, everybody is OK – the only real damage was to the vehicles. Mary was in a car accident on Friday evening when coming home from work. She was driving down the main road (ie 55 mph, no stop sign) and came to an intersection. Another driver was attempting to cross [...]

Coffee connoisseurs often spend several dollars for a single cup of fresh gourmet coffee. Usually this involves going to some stuffy coffee house where you have to listen to Bjork, drive a Prius, and deal with the coffee house staff complaining about their jobs while you place your order. Oh, and unless you [...]

So my computer died for good this time – just got back from the funeral. Its funny – given the amount of time I spent with it you would have thought I had prepared a little bit more for the eulogy besides “good riddance.”

I have no idea why I did it, but when I was younger, I chewed on tin foil. Seemed like an amusing thing to do until that slightly painful twinge in your head reminds you that you are being an idiot. Come to find out that you are actually getting an electrical shock when this [...]

Yes, my computer is still broken. Right now I am using my brother-in-law’s computer while mine is out getting fixed. I would fix it myself but I am not very good at soldering nearly microscopic bits back onto the motherboard . . . here is what happend.
Back last Wednesday night, I think, was [...]

It has been quite a grind lately – I wake up early with wifey to make sure she gets out of the house on time. To make that goal even remotely achievable I make her coffee, breakfast, and lunch so she can take it with her to work. Usually within minutes of her [...]

We spent most of the afternoon and early evening at the Deerfield Fair on Sunday. Initially we weren’t going to go but Mary’s sister and her family would be there so we thought it would be a good excuse to see everyone. Besides, Vinny loves his cousins! This was Vin’s first trip [...]
