August 4, 2013: Easy, Like Today’s Morning
Actually, my kids woke up far too early for me to consider this an easy morning. Someone put on a pot of coffee, eh? Hello? Fine, I guess I've gotta do it myself.
August 3, 2013: Sour Cream
My thoughtful littlest girl saw a Twins jersey keychain in Minnesota and decided that I must have it. I missed them more than I knew.
August 2, 2013: They Return
Milklings arrive in Phoenix at 4!
August 1, 2013: One Day More
My daughters get back tomorrow night. I'll be working, annoyingly enough, but even the couple of minutes I get when they come into the store is going to set me right.
July 31, 2013: Trade Deadline
Peavy's out of the division! He's a Sawk now, though. So, are any interesting subtractions for the Twins imminent? As long as we don't see any Matt Lawton for Rick Reed type things, I'm good.
July 30, 2013: Cockroaches
There had to be a downside to this beautiful house we're sitting.
July 29, 2013: Housesitting
Starting last night, the Milkmaid and I are housesitting for a co-worker of hers for a week. It's a much nicer place than most and there's a great pool out back. We've been pretty spoiled for the last couple of weeks, other than not seeing our kids.

July 27, 2013: Wire to Wire
Full day today, guys. I have to run a morning meeting at work, then immediately head to Flagstaff with my wife for Flagstaff Extreme (a ropes course up in the trees), and spend the three-hour drive back judging for my Survivor game. Normally on a day off I beg for the opportunity to do nothing, but I'm pretty excited about all of this.
