Okay… My Saturday went well enough, I guess. I got my six pages finished, and then headed to Konawa for four basketball games — both Wewoka teams and both Konawa teams. At the same time, both New Lima teams were playing in Ada, and Seminole’s boys were playing in Byng. Here’s the current state of[...]
Three more games are under my belt after today! Whew! All the Seminole County teams I covered won today — New Lima girls, Konawa boys, and Wewoka girls. The pix are on My Flickr .

For the first Tuesday in a while, I had no basketball games. It was nice. But I frittered away most of the evening by taking a three-hour nap (accidentally) from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. Yeah, I have to be REALLY tired to fall asleep unintentionally. Fortunately, Marline called before I had a chance to[...]
My darling Marline is sick today; I think it’s the same thing I’ve had for a week and a half. I’d think that I gave it to her, except I doubt you get catch viruses over the phone. Not physical viruses, anyway. She’s a strong lady, I know she’ll get well soon. Last night, I[...]
It’s freakin’ cold here. Today’s HIGH was 19 degrees, according to local weathermen. Those are my grandmother’s calves, covered in ice. We had to break the ice in the pond so they could drink. Of course, the ice wasn’t that thick; they could have broken it themselves, if they were smart enough. But by tomorrow,[...]
I hate it when my fatigue level affects my emotional state (note: “affects” is a verb; “effects” is a plural noun — see, there’s always time for a grammar lesson). I’ve been so tired lately, that I’m less likely to be my calm, cool, and collected self. I’ve grown snappy and argumentative At least I[...]
I was a little down last night… Not because it was V-day, LOL. Just about life in general. You know how everyone has emotional cycles? (especially women?) Well, I have them too. I think they run in 2-3 week cycles. In my old days, I was mostly in the middle of the scale, but I[...]
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY (to everyone, but mostly to) MARLINE!

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[...]

Rebecca woke with a dry diaper this morning and kept her panties dry all day, using her potty correctly all day. We spent the day shifting from (1) us asking if she needed to go to (2) her telling us when she needed to go. And, after three days of holding it, she went #2[...]
Rebecca kept her diaper dry all morning, while MF was at work, and then wore panties the rest of the day, keeping them dry too. She even surprised us by staying dry during a supper trip to Dairy Queen (she had requested an ice cream cone). We put a diaper on her for the trip[...]
Big Milestone: Rebecca is now Three Feet Tall. Not quite tall enough for the WNBA, but on her way. She also crossed the 27-pound threshold for the first time (that we know of; we haven’t weighed her in a while). She’s 2.58 years (31 months) old. Compared to me: My mother didn’t record my height[...]
I woke up early today (because I went to bed on time last night?) and thought that would give me a little more time before RLF awoke. No — her new waking cycle is somehow tied to mine. Perhaps she hears the coffee-maker — I think I’m otherwise very quiet when I get up. She[...]
