It’s baseball season, y’all! The Chargers started their spring season with a tournament this weekend. They were 1-1 in pool play. Really, they should’ve been 2-0, but, well, we had to give the other team a break. (That and, I’m no expert, but when a pitch hits in the dirt, isn’t that a ball instead […]

The boys – all 4 of them (yes, even the adult and the 2.5 year old) have been drooling over the new Dell all-in-one touch screen computers. There have been many trips to Best Buy to play with them research them, sigh over them, and dream about having one at home. There were many discussions […]
