Every flower that blooms has to go through a whole lot of Dirt. I decided that I would attempt a taper on my, not so nice to me, DEX. I’m quite sure I have mentioned how much I dislike this … Continue reading
Life Isn’t Perfect

Another Birthday is Here!
In a few days I’ll be that huge number 41. That big-ole number I never thought I’d achieve. At the same time it’s a small little number that looks a little lonely, like it needs a friend. Maybe a buddy? … Continue reading
