I found out last night that I passed the exam! Sweet! Not only that, I did it with a very high score. It feels good to have that milestone behind me now and I can focus on the next step.

Now that the Fridge is fixed, what should break but the car? Driving home, Laura noticed some strange problems like the radio/CD player cutting out and the AC shutting off. Worse things happened as the day wore on, so we took it in yesterday. I hope the damage is not too bad. At least we [...]

This Sunday, while we had a visitor staying with us, our refrigerator [not really ours, per se - it comes with the house] died a slow, quiet death. We first noticed about lunch time when the ice seemed to be low and the cubes not as hard as usual. This was followed by a series [...]
