Looks like married life has taken me down from one blog a day, to once a week. That’s fine by me. I didn’t have that many readers anyway… Anyway, this week has been busy — I left my car at the shop over the weekend, and brought it back two more times this week, to[...]
My sister Shari and her husband Bobby came to visit yesterday, from Texas, bringing their five children with them. I have new pics of them on My Flickr . This week, all my football games were on Thursday, instead of Friday, because of Fall Break. So that basically messed up my schedule, but things went[...]
On Saturday night, Marline and I watched Grudge 2 at the Seminole theater. Yes, there’s a theater in Seminole, though it was in danger of closing for good a few years ago. Under new ownership, the theater has improved greatly, to the point where it’s actually worth going there. Movies in New York cost $11.[...]
Tonight, Marline and I watched “Take the Lead” on DVD (from NetFlix ). It’s the dancing movie, with Antonio Banderas — turned out it was a true story. Usually, I don’t like dancing movies, because they’re all so cliche-ic. Another genre of movie that’s full of cliches is the urba classroom drama — where some[...]
Marline and I went to see “The Departed” Sunday night. (Read my review HERE.) It was better than we’d expected, and we’d expected quite a lot from that cast of brilliant actors and such a talented director. Don’t watch it with the kids, or at all if you’re offended by “coarse” language. Otherwise, it’s a[...]
Cassie, you’re right. It works out well that we have some alone time, and some together time. Marline gets her first paycheck on Friday, and things should smooth out after that. (I’m sorry you didn’t get to go to your bazaar… That sucks. But rules are rules.) In the meantime, Marline’s away at a conference.[...]
To answer Cassie’s comment… I am getting some rest. Marline and I only share one day of our respective weekends — Sunday. It’s her last day of the weekend, and my first day. So, she gets most of Saturday to herself, and I get most of Monday to myself. It’s a pretty nice arrangement. And,[...]
Wow. This past week was crazy, especially the last half. On Thursday, I spent the afternoon in Konawa, covering the regional softball tournament, that included two local teams (Konawa and Strother-Varnum). Then, that evening, I covered a football game in Maud, along with the homecoming pageantry. Maud won the game, which makes it two in[...]
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[...]

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[...]
