Keith's adventures: Translation from Libertarian-speak to English of selected portions of Mandates are not the answer by David Gratzer
http://wrayblog.blogspot.com/2008/04/translation-from-libertarian-speak-to.html
Translation from Libertarian-speak to English of selected portions of Mandates are not the answer. Original article available here. Insurers call them “young invincibles”: twentysomething hipsters who will spend $4 on a café latte or $80 on a monthly gym membership but won’t buy health insurance. People under 30 are idiots and should get off my lawn. 8221; Ondrejcak’s personal health plan: running, yoga, and vitamins. The cost: acute appendicitis and a $37,000 hospital bill. But both the liberal and cons...

I Like Carrots: Draw A Person
http://katgautreaux.blogspot.com/2014/02/draw-person.html
Tuesday, February 25, 2014. Ada chalked this picture of Jeffrey on Valentine's Day and I wanted to post it before I forgot. I believe it is her first drawing of a person. While she drew it, she told us all the parts she was making. Not bad for 2 1/2. I mean, that IS what Jeffrey looks like: legs. Posted by Kat G. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

I Like Carrots: March 2014
http://katgautreaux.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 26, 2014. Our house we bought last May has honey oak cabinets throughout. They were real wood, not veneer, so overall they were in good shape but just sort of . oakey. Mostly, I would sit at my desk for hours every day staring at the base of the breakfast bar and loathing the oak paneling they put there. It had sort of a plywood quality and I loathed it. LOATHED. It took weeks. Mostly because I have other stuff to do, of course. Here is photographic evidence! OK Before and afters! Get th...

I Like Carrots: October 2013
http://katgautreaux.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 23, 2013. Ada's first salon haircut! Ada's hair had finally gone from bald to longish, her curls getting trapped in her collar and her bangs poking her in the eyes. She'll let me put barrettes, headbands, ponytails, and pigtails in but she only keeps them there for about five minutes before she says, "I don't want this.". I didn't do such a hot job on her bangs last time I did them. See? When she woke up this morning, she said, "Ready to get a haircut? We had to kill a few hours. She l...

I Like Carrots: Phoenix Festival
http://katgautreaux.blogspot.com/2014/02/phoenix-festival.html
Sunday, February 9, 2014. Yesterday Jeffrey and I took Ada down to Phoenix to the Chinese New Year festival. We've been reading about CNY in a pop up book for the last month and we hoped we'd get to see a dragon and a lion dancer. We did not. She had been very interested in chopsticks and we were at least able to try those out. The Sages met us there with Ada's buddy, Sophie. Sophie showed up at the last second and the two friends were able to ride together. Because Ada loves carousels and they have a go...

I Like Carrots: November 2013
http://katgautreaux.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 29, 2013. One-month-old. Santa admonished my parents for bringing me out in the cold. Then Eric shows up. WHAT ARE THESE TEENAGERS DOING ON MY LAP? After this year, you can see the annual photo still happened, but we found alternatives to Santa. Santa was out. So we borrowed his set. Eric's hair is so Swingers! This is at my house in Elizabeth City. Eric must be 18 here, so we were allowed to stop. Also, I think the next year I moved to Yuma. Posted by Kat G. Sunday, November 24, 2013.

I Like Carrots: December 2013
http://katgautreaux.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 22, 2013. Our new Roku 3 has new channels, including the Vevo music video channel. We turned on the Beyonce "Put a Ring on It" video. I asked Ada if she could do the moves. She started doing something. Then looks at Jeffrey and says, "This is really hard work.". Yes Yes it is. Posted by Kat G. What sound DOES a chicken make? I don't know what they were doing, but this is the conversation:. Ada: It's a duck! Jeffrey: Ducks say quack quack! Ada: Here's a chicken. Me: No they don't. We were...

Lakeside Musings: February 2008
http://lakesideblog.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 16, 2008. Tag, I'm IT. Julie's. Meme rules: Look at any book you are currently reading with 125 pages. Go to page 123. Skip the first 5 sentences. Record the following 3 sentences. Tag 5 more people to play the game. Currently, my reading stack includes travel guides for Baja and there's always a book or two about home building. Other recently read tomes have been dutifully returned to the library. So, let's see, from Andromeda Romano-Lax's. Sea Kayaking in Baja. Traveling always gives...

I Like Carrots: October 2014
http://katgautreaux.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 24, 2014. My dad plotted a motorcycle route that, upon further Google Earthing, was mostly unpaved. So we decided to take their F150 out and see how the 4-wheel drive did. It did pretty well. No slippage. Ada slept for a good part of the more exciting bits. She liked the bridge though. Overall, and excellent adventure! This truss bridge was built in 1924 and had ridiculously wide pine board planks. Ada, show me the bridge" resulted in jazz hands. An elegant country bridge. Posted by Kat G.

I Like Carrots: The Pumpkin Patch ... Year 3
http://katgautreaux.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-pumpkin-patch-year-3.html
Saturday, October 18, 2014. The Pumpkin Patch . Year 3. And made silly faces in the cutouts. But we couldn't wait too long because THE CAROUSEL was the excitement of the day. Pumpkins? Fiona, Sophie's little sister, took a spin around. That's what she looks like when she's happy. A picture of me! Jeffrey and Damon #TrueDetectivesSeasonTwo. Marc and Susan were there, too! Ada had a rainbow butterfly painted on her face by a man in a shark hat. Seriously loved this deer. Posted by Kat G. Where I Waste Time.
