We're back in our home!

Hi there! Sorry for the delay in writing here. I've sent a few newsletters out, which you can read at http://theauthorhour/newsletter.php. After waiting a full year, we're finally back in our home that was destroyed in a fire. What a relief! Now I have the huge task of unpacking. Arrg! Here's a photo of our new and improved kitchen. My wife is feeling spoiled with her suspended island chairs, wood floor, upgraded cabinets and granite counters. I guess some good did come out of losing our home.

One Month After the Fire

I’m entitling this picture, "One Month After the Fire." Sad thing is that this is only three weeks growth for my beard. I know what you’re thinking. My poor wife! Well, she had a cold sore, so our marriage is still intact. I hate shaving. I’m the type of guy who gets his 5 o’clock shadow before lunch.



Here's me shaving off that beard like a real man! I don’t suggest using a sharp knife like this to shave off a beard. My boys call that knife "the machete." They’re afraid to even touch it, and for good reason. After trying and trying to shave off my beard, my wife finally buzzed it off with an electric razor for cutting hair. Good riddance!
