America’s Favorite Candies
Halloween is fast approaching and once again we face the dilemma: How much candy should I buy? It never fails: You buy a lot because you almost ran out last year and you’re left with Halloween candy until Christmas. Or you make a small purchase because you only had a few kids last year and…

Raising Grampy – The Holidays!
Hi guys! It’s me, Liam, and I KNOW! It’s been awhile! Mommy asked me the other day why I hadn’t posted in a long time and I said, “Hey! I can only work with what I got!” Grampy was hogging the tablet. Mommy looked it up and I haven’t been able to write since October!…

When Is It Too Soon To Decorate For Christmas?
We just might be in for a battle here at Braley Manor. In case you don’t know, my daughter and grandson are living with us for a few months while her husband is away on deployment. It’s really been wonderful having them. I get to spend a lot of time with my grandson and I…

Halloween Edition – Chapter 41
Hi everyone! It’s me, Liam. “Trick-or-treat!” Does that still work? I had a really good Halloween even though I still don’t know why we did that. All year long it’s “Don’t talk to strangers” but on that night I can ask them for candy? My mommy was so happy with how my Pluto costume came…

Woof Wednesday
Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. You would not believe this thing they got me for my bronchitis! I think I told you before that I have chronic bronchitis. Grammy and Grampy give me a new medicine twice a day. Grampy says if this keeps up I have to get a part time job…

Woof Wednesday
In my own defense (Yeah, it’s another one of those weeks), sometimes he puts mini muffins in there. Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. Last weekend I got into Grampy’s backpack. He wasn’t happy. Grampy has a backpack that he takes to all the games where he’s the broadcaster guy, whatever that means. Maybe…

Getting Yourself Ready For Winter – Sunday Column
Yesterday we spent some time prepping the yard for winter. Priscilla emptied out her flower pots and washed them out before stowing them away and I dug up the remains of my garden and left the dirt to weather the winter. It was a beautiful day to work outside and we even had a chance…
