Exactly one month and one day ago, I blogged about a dump truck. Today, I am mentioning the dump truck again because OHMYWORDITWASWORSETODAY! Without going into too much detail, my day started with an appointment at a particular Doctor that may or may not use a dump truck in her examinations. Or at least it [...]

Thursday Thirteen – 13 Vehicles We’ve Owned

August 19, 2009

While sitting under an oak tree in our fancy, schmancy Gander Mountain camping chairs last week, I used my beloved iPhone to read y’all’s blog comments.

I Couldn’t Be Happier!

August 13, 2009

Well, its back to the grind here at From Inmates To Playdates and the break is over. It wasn’t me who enjoyed a nice, long week free of the telephone, the television, the internet. Seriously, it wasn’t me because that wouldn’t be possible. Would it? Going an entire week without various technological gadgets would be [...]
