Danielle has gotten a storm named after her! It’s fully expected that this storm will strengthen into a hurricane, and then there will be many, many jokes about Hurricane Danielle around this house. We’ll have to wait and see what, if any, impact this will have on her ship, but I’m sure her shipmates will …
Well, what has been going on? For one thing, I find myself answering the following question a lot, lately: “What’s that, Daddy?” “Daddy, what’s that?” But a lot of other stuff has been going on, too.

I was beyond amazed by the level of customer service we received. For those of you renting out there, if you don’t have renters’ insurance, get …
Back at the end of September (!) I posted about my trip to Norfolk to find housing for our February move. I also hinted at another story at the end of the post. I think I’ve teased you long enough. Sean and I stayed with friends from the old neighborhood while we conducted our search. …
