Monday, I didn’t do much at all. It was rather nice; sort of like a day off. For the most part, during the day, I sat on the couch in front of the TV, knitting, while Tim cooked and Bill and Cathy ran errands. Yes, Tim in the kitchen, and you know what that means! [...]

Continuing with the – finally – adding of the old photos which I used to have in a photo album on the previous incarnation of Snarkland, I bring you… Thanksgiving 2002. My first time  being with Tim’s family for Thanksgiving, first time meeting his sister Cathy, and the trip during which we told his family [...]

When I changed blog hosts a few years ago, for some reason I never got around to re-posting many of the photos I’d had on the blog from those pre-flickr days. Here are some pictures from the first time I went to meet Tim’s family, in April of 2002. It was a combination Easter weekend [...]
