WEEK OF ALEX!!!!

Wendy is out of town for work from 8/19 - 8/25, so I am living up the solo blogger and bachelor life while she's away. I can't leave our loyal four fans without any blog content, you know? So I spent the week having a grand old time, working on the house, and keeping you guys updated on my antics. We've been through a lot in the last week, a baseball game, painting the new front door, creative uses for trash turned tools, and even a major 5.8 magnitude east coast earthquake. Boy, Wendy misses all of the fun. 

So please enjoy the series of posts that made up my week long single life in the WEEK OF ALEX!

It's been a fun WEEK OF ALEX series of posts, but my solitary posting is coming to a close as Wendy is due home later tonight. To be perfectly honest, I can't wait until she's back. I grew up an only child, so I can exist on my own pretty...

While the Cat's Away, the Mice Will Play
Posted by Alex
Or at least, while Wendy is away, Alex, Lulu, and Mel will play.  With my weekend posts about running and baseball, you might be wondering, "Alex, just what exactly are you doing while Wendy is out of town? Don't you have tons of house projects to work on? Don't you have...

As American as Apple Pie
Posted by Alex
What better way to celebrate the WEEK OF ALEX than attending the all American pastime on a leisurely Saturday evening? Sure, there's plenty that I have to do on the house, but Saturday's game was also bobblehead night at the park, and I couldn't miss that. So my friend Martin...
