I do a bit of work here and there. I travel for work and I take on projects that might last for weeks, even months. Luckily, the last 3 long term projects I’ve worked on have been near a WaWa: Bridgeville and Long Neck in Delaware and presently the WaWa in Cambridge, Maryland. When there … Continue reading Wild Wild (WaWa) West

‘Twas The Night Before Christmas Break Was Over
Of all the things I’ve written, all the worthless nonsense and all the crazy ideas, I rather like this one. I wrote it years ago, many years ago, when my daughters, you know them by now, Kate and Charlotte, as you are regular readers of my blog (AREN’T YOU !?!?!?), were still young and in … Continue reading ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas Break Was Over
Never Have I Ever
As 2024 comes to an end and I think about the year ahead, I’m thinking about things I haven’t done. Maybe 2025 will see me doing new things. I’ve never eaten a wrap. I’ve had burritos and enchiladas but never had a wrap. Nothing against them, just never made one and there were always other … Continue reading Never Have I Ever
The Enabler.
While I am many things, let’s add enabler to the list. Going to The Lion yesterday to get a few things, I got a text from my daughter who’s leaving the next morning to go back to school. Knowing I was going to The Lion she asked me to get her something. “Can you get … Continue reading The Enabler.
AITA
Ok - some of you may know what that means. For those of you that don’t… On long road trips, Lisa will often get on the Reddit Ap and read the section where people post an experience and then ask, “Am I The Asshole?” I’ve often wanted to post a few of these, but I … Continue reading AITA
Bad Attitude
“I got a bad attitude about this”. That’s one of our new favorite sayings around the Sumstine house. Lisa’s work husband (who shall remain nameless but most people who know us know who he is) said this about somethings that he was anticipating and he already new he didn’t like what was about to go … Continue reading Bad Attitude
Girl Dad
Yup, I’m a girl dad. I’ve had things painted. I’ve been to tea parties. I watched The Little Mermaid 1000 times. Wouldn’t have it any other way. My oldest, Kate, just turned 19. The day she was born and I watched her come out and held her for the first time. I’ve never felt such … Continue reading Girl Dad
Who’s in the wrong?
I don’t know what to call this. An annoyance? A pet peeve? I don’t know. The other day I got gas. As I waited at the pump, I saw a lady come out of the store and begin pumping gas at the pump across from me. And in the passenger seat sat a guy, kind … Continue reading Who’s in the wrong?
Changing the Look
When looking into trying to improve BecauseJimSays I saw something about changing the font. Um…… nah. I don’t like serifs too much. You know, the serif, the little hooks that are on certain letters. I try not to use fonts that have them. I don’t have a choice of fonts on my blog. It changes … Continue reading Changing the Look
The NON-Joys of Snow
It’s been a while since we had a good snowfall. That’s not a bad thing. In my MUCH younger days, I enjoyed a good snow. It meant time off school. It meant time to play in the snow with friends. It meant sledding down a hill. But now it means only 1 thing. Ugh……. I … Continue reading The NON-Joys of Snow
