Short – Armstrong Family Circus

The gift that keeps giving all year ‘round.

I just got my free iPod Nano video in the mail. I won it post-participatorily (?) from the cre824. I’m excited. Quite. I’m not sure what to do. I just keep starring at it. Merry Christmas to me, 2 days early.

Too much candy

Posted on November 1, 2005December 6, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

Free M&M Mini’s and Twizzlers to a good home! Must have experience with candy. Strong teeth required. Good hygiene habits. You’ll love these so good, you’re stomach will hurt! Serious inquiries only. Ok, that was lame. But again we bought way too much candy this year. Granted there are tons more kids roaming this neighborhood…

All just a game

Gas prices are down. It’s like they’re giving it away – or at least that’s how it feels. So, was it all a psychological game to see what we’d pay or legitimate price increase? We may never know …

Holy crip, he’s a crapple!

I’m 33 today. I have no idea how this happened. But it might be contagious, so everyone take a step back.

3 Days

Posted on May 14, 2005November 26, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

That’s all it took. 3 Days. 72 hours. 4,320 minutes. 42% of a week. 0.8% of a year. Not long. SOLD. We didn’t think we’d accept the initial offer, but after standing our ground, we got a great offer. Now our fingers are crossed for the inspection. Maybe now we can sleep.

No turning back

There’s not turning back. The offer is “out there” now. Better still – our current house isn’t even on the market. Nope. Not even ready to show. We are idiots, but have this insane faith that it will sell fast (after we get things up to par to show — like clean our clutter, minimize,…

Birthday Pictures on the way

Posted on April 14, 2005November 26, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

I promise to have the birthday pictures up shortly. Been a crazy, tiring week, and yet I feel like nothing has gotten done at all. I hate that feeling. How does one go about finding someone — for free? If that\’s possible. I doubt it is. I’ve been wondering where my old college roommate is….

Sometimes there are few words

Posted on April 13, 2005November 24, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

Since the weekend marathon of the birthday celebration it feels as if everything has become weighed down. House hunting. Illnesses. Stuffy noses. Late night terrors. Restless sleep. Spring cleaning and chores and home maintenance and keeping up appearances I suppose. Not stressful, not fun, but just there. I don’t have much to say. Our story…

Me, Myself, and I

Posted on April 3, 2005November 24, 2019 by Sonya Armstrong

I felt exactly as a child going on a playdate, decked out in the rain gear I, as a mother, so carefully draped over myself; I wasn’t alone. The excitement of walking to my friend’s house, being reminded of a distant time in my past, when I had done that very thing as a child…
