Tuesday, I went & got my paycheck, then got a few groceries. Most of the rest of the day, and Wednesday, and Thursday, I stayed at home, working on the computer. I didn’t get much writing done, but I downloaded some books from the internet. Thursday afternoon, about 20 cops went by my house, from[...]
Yesterday afternoon, Joe H called me from Okemah, and asked if I wanted to come up for the evening, for drinking, dinner and games. He also mentioned that Charlene’s sister’s daughter, Shay (20) was interested in me. I went, but not because of Shay. Joe also mentioned over the phone that he would soon be[...]
Somehow, though I felt groggy all week, I made it through Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday without leaving early again. Thursday night, Seminole beat Plainview 49-14 here at home, and will travel to Sulphur on Oct. 25 still undefeated at 7-0. But Sulphur is undefeated as well.
Have made some progress on Connors stories. After outlining them all, I picked the episode of Billy Connors’ time machine for the first novel. Then I made a rough outline of the story. Sunday night and most of the day Monday, I worked on writing that story. I’ve already written about 10,000 words on it,[...]
Been busy working on investigative story about Seminole Fire Department (re: house fire on 9/29/02). It’ll probably run tomorrow.
Friday, I left work early & drove alone to McAlester, for a “Legal Matters” workshop, directed by Dr. Terry Clarke and one of the OPA (Oklahoma Press Association)’s lawyers. After the workshop, I drove southward to Hugo, Okla., where the Seminole Chieftains played the Buffaloes. We won, and Chauncey Cravens had one of the best[...]

This video is is cuter without sound (I forgot to mute the TV before recording). Rebecca was proud that she drinks out of a glass now, without spilling: (Copyright © 2013 by Wil C. Fry. All rights reserved.)
Flickr did their biggest change ever this evening. There’s a little more about that on my other blog. I’m seriously considering ending my eight-year relationship with Flickr. If only there were another decent place to share photos (and remember, I said “decent”, so no one suggest Facebook). Rebecca worked on learning my limits again today.[...]
WEATHER: 72-93°F, mostly cloudy RLF requested the playground today, after a few weeks of not going, so I said okay. She wouldn’t walk there; only rode in the stroller. And only played there for about five minutes before she was ready to come home. (This is why we’d quit going in the first place.) She[...]
➤ A couple of nights ago, Rebecca woke up crying about 2 a.m. My wife heard it, rushed in. RLF said she needed to go to the bathroom. MF took her; RLF did. Then RLF went back to sleep. (I didn’t wake up. Noises will prevent me from falling asleep, but very little will wake[...]
After a cooler than average spring, yesterday was the hottest day of the year (high: 92°F) until today’s record high of 96°F. Had a pretty good day with Rebecca (scroll down for photos).
Rebecca did well with potty again today — still working on #2. After an early, short, and surprising nap (she put herself down at 11:50 for just an hour), much of the afternoon was full of fussing and craziness. I got a new debit card today, to replace the old one that was cracking and[...]

A few days ago, we passed what I’ve jokingly called “the Rebecca threshold” with our Benjamin pregnancy. She was born about 7 weeks before her due date. As of May 10, we passed that point in the current pregnancy. My wife’s at 34 weeks as of today, and about nine pounds lighter than she was[...]
