You know, I have a good life, and always have I guess, never wanting for anything. I’ve had (to me) a successful career, I had a good marriage many years ago (which for various reasons ended), I’ve had my ups and downs with relationships since then. I’ve helped raise 3 boys over the last 12 […]

Visio of Dover Basement – post construction mods
This is what the Dover basement could have turned out to be. In this diagram, I decreased the size of the project room (by 2-1/2 feet on the right), increased the size of the bedroom (by adding that same amount to the left). I then moved the door of the storage room to be next to the bedroom […]

She never seemed prepared, either didn’t show us the agenda for each day long class, or showed it in the middle of the day (as an afterthought).
