Hope everyone is having a Happy Thanksgiving! Though I haven’t blogged in a while, things have been happening. At work, I’ve switched fully from football season to basketball season. This year it was a little easier, since all my local football teams that made the playoffs went down in the first round. So, the transition[...]
On Saturday (the morning after all of Seminole County’s football teams lost out of the playoffs), my wife and I took a road trip with my parents.
Let’s talk about something besides politics for a moment. In my part of the country, the big news right now isn’t Obama (that’s old news). It’s the Big 12 Conference. And by that I mean college football, for those who didn’t know. Three of the top five teams in the country are from the Big[...]
For those of you who haven’t taken advantage of early voting, I strongly encourage it — if your state allows it. Marline and I voted on Saturday, because neither of us can afford to stand in the lines on Tuesday. She works a ways out of town, and would have to miss a third of[...]
As some of you know, I read books all the time. I read science fiction, history, biographies, mysteries, political thrillers, and other fiction and non-fiction. Constantly. But I rarely recommend a book. Here’s one. I just finished ” The Innocent Man ” — the first non-fiction book written by novelist John Grisham. After a couple[...]
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[...]
