So far, it’s been pretty nice and surprisingly uneventful. I should warn you now that there is no one singular aim, focus, or theme in this entry. Instead, today’s dispatch will parallel the activities I have planned for the garage this weekend. Brush pick up is happening in my neighborhood this week and I’m...

I woke up by myself this morning without the assistance of the alarm I have set on my phone. That’s not to say I didn’t need help though. As she does just about every night / morning, the Pit Bull partook in her rigid habit of waking me up with a tongue to the...

It would seem that week two of the 2nd Annual TharpSter March Vacation will go down in its brief history as a very successful one. Readership is up over the last several days, and there’s a load of darks in the washer right now. The backyard needs to be mowed and as a result,...

To this date, the number of posts appearing on TharpSter.Org which directly address matters of my Christian faith has been zero. There have been plenty of indirect references though.
