So last night was the big night – the first annual Friends of Guiding Father Daughter Valentine Formal. It was a HUGE hit!

So after dealing with the gate guards not letting in the delivery guys before 9AM everything else today went off without a hitch. Before we had arrived the girls had already finished the yard sale – Syd didn’t find anything that she couldn’t live without. When we rolled in just before noon there were tons [...]

Now this has been explained to me several times and has something to do with the differences between British Girlguiding and British Girlguiding in Foreign Countries but by my count this the third year we’ve had a centennial celebration. This year all the guides (Rainbows, Brownies, Guides, & Senior Section) are getting together for an [...]

The Deathstar has been branded – again…

So y’all that know us know that Anita’s car is known far and wide as the Deathstar. It’s a giant SUV manufactured by communists but purchased in the resale market before they were ‘too big to fail.’ Hopefully to be replaced very soon with an equally oversized Ford of some sort. Anyways, years ago Anita [...]

For those of you who may not know Anita is all about organizing. She’s got books, file folders, and three ring binders on almost every home organization topic imaginable. That’s not to say that I know exactly how many paperclips are in the second desk drawer on the right – but theoretically I’m sure that [...]
