Hey everyone, it’s Whatever Wednesdays again. Today is just a short post about “Kids and Reading”. Or more specifically, my kids and reading.

What would you have done with that decade of your life? How […]

Hey everyone, it’s Whatever Wednesdays again. This is just going to be a short post about my adventures in “Gardening”. Gardening? Yea. So, if you know me, I’m not really into gardening. I can’t really tell the difference between plants and in general I don’t like maintaining my landscape. For this reason I have gardeners and landscapers to do my maintenance for me. However, we recently decided to pull out a planter from our front […]
