On the abuse of women in general, response to someone named Tom
I got a surprising response from a post of mine from 2007. Here is the post: The Abuse of Russian Women The links were broken, I added a couple of new ones. This is the comment. I personally think your husband’s mother is the lowest type of human being. She picked her husband. She should stay…

Please excuse my dust
I’m redoing the theme of my blog. It may be messy for a while, especially since I have a lot else on my plate. – Hmmm, the redo of the blog got LOST in the Blog Crash of 2015. So as of April, it’s messy again. Here’s to finding a better theme.

Happy New Year 2013
Sitting here with my family while they watch TV, laptop on my lap where it should be. Outside it’s really cold. So, what’s up this year? I’m secretary for Young Women. If you don’t know what that is, our church has a program for teenage women from 12 to 18 years old. It helps them…

Under the lights
First thing after my workout this morning (2.5 miles run + 20 minutes strength) I came home and put up my grow lights. My setup consisted only of what I had around the house: An unused desk, a couple of extra chairs with good chair backs, an old closet rod, the garage studio fluorescent lighting I mentioned…

My seedlings are up!
I saw my first basil seedlings yesterday morning and this morning, I’ve seen my tomatoes! The next step is to put them under some grow lights. I was looking around for a shop light for this purpose, but then Vladimir reminded me that he already had some for our garage studio (yes, we’ve made movies…
