If you read this blog via email or a reader, you may not have seen our new changes. You remember the old site, right? Nice but getting a bit outdated in the current world of blogs... So here is the new and improved No Ordinary Homestead. Drum roll please... Hopefully...
Stupid technology
I have so much to say these days, but my laptop has been standing in the way of my blogging progress. It's also been hampering a lot of work I need to do with my laptop. It's just not that easy to keep Mackenzie out of trouble in my office, and I can hardly move my PC...
Some randomness about me
I was tagged by Janet at The Queen of Seaford to play a 7 things meme. I haven't been tagged in ages and I appreciate the honor. Now I just have to scrounge up 7 things about me that you don't already know...not an easy feat since I talk about so much randomness every...
Post #1202 and my Blogoversary
It's hard for me to believe that I've been blogging for over 4 years now. I started with a blog about my Land Rover Defender and the traveling we were doing in Europe. We were going rock climbing and pimping the Defender so we thought it would be fun to share the...
Sorry for the absence

Google – my psychic
I was finally doing a bit of catching up on reading other people's blogs and came across what I found amusing at 11:30pm while we watched Private Practice in bed. Connie at Young and Restless mentioned this game of sorts and I figured I would give it a go. Feel free...
But I want to be the boss!!
Being isolated and cut off from American television here, I’ve never seen any of the Cesar Millan shows. So when I was approached to review his new DVD series called Mastering Leadership, I was quite excited. If you love Cesar or need help with your dog, check out my...
