Posted By: Deanna The first time I did a flip on our trampoline I nerved myself and launched forward. The earth spun, inverted, and righted itself. Hair whipping at my face, I landed flat on my rear but I stood and smiled to myself. Breathing deep I tasted victory, and felt no fear. This post [...]

Mother Hen wants to know what you made this week, and every Thursday from now on. Last week I tried my hand at improvising a neat little gizmo I saw on TV: the Twin Draft Dodger. The advantage to this draft dodger is that it fits snugly against both sides of the door and slides [...]
