We’ve been meaning to get some home pics now that we’re settled in and I was finally reminded of all this when I saw Sarah’s photos the other day. Thanks for jogging my memory. Things here are trucking along just fine. It’s good to have things unpacked although we swear a box or two is [...]

It’s taken a little time but I’ve finally invested more energy here and have cleaned things up. It occurred to me recently that I spend a good bit of time tweaking my digital life, and trying to get the most out of an increasingly digital world. Until now, I’ve not had an efficient outlet to [...]
