ALREADY TO START WORK ON THE SPOOKY CASTLE
As of last weekend it looks like we are a go with doing a haunted house as a fund raiser for Cub Scouts this year. We've talked about doing it the last few years, but it has always fallen apart. But this year we have two back yards that have been volunteered for this and more or less we have all...

WE ARE ENTERING THE GREATEST SHOPPING SEASON OF THE YEAR

JUST WAITING FOR THE WORLDCON NOW
It starts this Wednesday and I am really looking forwards to it. We've not had a Worldcon out here since 1982., For those not into the sci-fi world, this is a big thing. It is where the Hugos are awarded (Kind of like the Oscars of the sci-fi/fantasy writing world) and if you are a member of the...

NOW IS THE TIME TO FOCUS ON MY GRANDMOTHER
I really find it interesting that after the recent issue here that tried to paint me as some cruel kid who goes off and attacks 'nice little old ladies' I am writing this post. With my grandfather dead as a family we need to be focusing on my grandmother's needs. She and my grandfather were married...

THE OLD MAN IS BACK IN TOWN
Xeno_x is in town for visit. Most likely he'll be blogging some from my sister's house, where he is staying for the first part of the week. He seems glad to be back out here to see the grandkids.
