Undo! Undo!
It’s time for another irregular podcast episode — I will try to make these more regular but I have to find time to get them done — they usually take me a while. I did this one with GarageBand on … Continue reading
Everything in seventeen syllables

Whirlwind Seattle
Over the weekend, Kiddo, my Mother-in-Law (MIL) and I traveled via the Clipper to Seattle. I’d built a little package online, after much research of course, and we managed to pack a whole lot into the time we were there … Continue reading
