Sam and I had a very nice date night while Katie was out with her beau. He had started making chili last night, finished it tonight, and added corn muffins. I’m not a big fan of chili (I won’t eat…
Another Week, Another 1/4 Semester
I’ve successfully completed 1/4 of the semester! Without using any kind of accommodations! I realize that’s a fairly pitiful thing to celebrate, but I have to take what I can get. The project management course is actually giving me useful…
Have Any Homeschooling or Education Thoughts?

Romance and Roleplaying
Sam has talked about this subject in several of his podcasts, but I don’t think I’ve ever tried to address it. I may fail miserably, but I’ll try. Sam and I had one of our twice-weekly “date nights” tonight. That…
