Souvenirs from the front
Ok, for any newcomers to this blog, Union-Bulletin blogger and Web content producer Jeremy Gonzalez and I engaged in blog warfare for the month of May.
“Every Day in May” started like this: U-B Web dude Carlos Virgen noticed my blog was getting some serious traffic in April. (Finally!)

Carlos posted some of my numbers on [...]
The last hours of an unplanned war
You know why this is coming out so late on the very last night? I mean, most of you won’t even see this until Monday morning and those visits won’t count for the win.
Lots of reasons. One, it is TOO HOT at my house, even though the girls and I did wrestle one window air [...]
Blog War: Day 30, and here’s my reading of the situation
It’s a good thing this Blog War is almost over.
Not only are readers getting just a teensy bit sick of it (I imagine, although you have all been too kind to say so), but it has seriously impacted my recreational reading time, of which I have very little during peace time as it is.
So, you [...]
Dear Kathy
I promised you more money-saving advice from Kathy Gonzalez in an earlier post this month and today is the day.
Now, this started because Kathy’s husband, Jeremy, and I have been in a blog war this month — “Every Day in May.”

We can’t do the…um, unclothed… pictures

Except for naked people. John had to give that sad news to a bunch of guys who recently wanted to surprise their buddy on his birthday.
“They told me, ‘Every year [...]
The end is in sight
Color it pretty
We’re in the last week of the “Every Day in May” blog war, folks. I have to tell you, the numbers have amazed me. I know, that sounds like a tease, but we’re working away at defining the truest measure of the statistics we’re seeing to make sure we’re giving all of you [...]
The Bee Movie, Walla Walla style
It’s Friday, I’ve already posted, but this is too cool to wait.
It was right after lunch when my managing editor heard about a huge swarm of bees about half a block from the newspaper office, right next to Community Bank on First Avenue.
So we all know I’m still learning with my little point-n-shoot, but I [...]
A house is a house, of course, of course
Until you’re looking for a home.
Many of us have been where my oldest daughter and her husband are right now — looking for the perfect first house.
You know how it is…no matter what your budget, you have every hope that the very first piece of real estate you purchase will fulfill all your dreams.
My baby [...]
Muffins with Mom
This morning was “Muffins with Mom” at my youngest daughter’s school.
This event is new to me, but it’s designed to promote reading with your kid. Again, let me laud the school’s librarian for innovation and a positive attitude, given that she can’t even be sure there will be a school library next year.
We started with [...]

It’s Probably Not This Simple But…
