Week Two – Day One

August 31, 2009 By Dana White | 1 Comment

I'm not planning to keep track of the days forever, because, after all, this is the rest of my life, right? Today was another one of those days where all plans went out the window. Another sick kid and another doctor visit. Looks like we're on the healing side of things and we should be back to normal very soon. Ahhh. Again, getting up a little … [Read more...]

One week down: The rest of my life to go . . .

August 30, 2009 By Dana White | 15 Comments

I started this blog on Monday, and today is Sunday. So with this post, I've been blogging for a week now. I'm proud of the fact that my bed has been made everyday. I used to think that there was no point in making your bed, because you're going to get back in and mess it up that night. I . . . was . . . wrong. It feels nice. We don't lose the … [Read more...]

Crockpot BBQ Chicken Sandwiches

August 28, 2009 By Dana White | 33 Comments

Is it just me, or can you feel the "I'm not going to want to cook tonight" funk coming on early in the day sometimes? This is my go-to meal when that hits. First of all, it can be put in the crockpot at noon, sometimes as late as 2 if you aren't going to eat until 6:30 or so. Second, everybody loves it. Third, I've always got Kraft BBQ sauce in … [Read more...]

What should I be doing?

August 26, 2009 By Dana White | 25 Comments

So I've blogged for two days now. Not exactly a marathon accomplishment, but you have to start somewhere. I'm guessing that if anyone was reading this, they'd probably want to tell me about some great resources to help in getting my house in order. I'm very open to reading things, but I should probably share that I've read quite a few things on … [Read more...]
