as to how long I have been away this time. I feel bad. Honest.
Status Update: Still unemployed, but looking.
I have not been feeling all that great and so I missed a last minute decision to go to Florida to watch the shuttle launch. The boys left Friday to go see it and it was scrubbed [...]

Well, ok. I have to admit that I have been busy, but that is no excuse. What has really been happening is that I have been hiding. Yes, hiding. Hiding from my friends, responsibilities and, most of all, emotional attachments. I don’t want to go into details, but, suffice it [...]

I just have been under some stress the last few weeks, and these days I tend to crawl under a rock, instead of letting it bother me… which means of course, that I don’t write much… or call anyone for that matter. I feel like I might catch someone at the wrong time… and in [...]

As many have guessed my bucket list accomplishment is a tattoo. 1.5 days and I will be walking into the tat parlor with nerves enough for ten. Since my blog host [...]

**I would have written this sooner, but I wanted to give this justice and this was one of those that held my emotions too tight to write it properly. The third death in my lifetime that was not related that made me cry. The other two were John Wayne and Elvis Presley… yea, I know, [...]

Friends and Family,
Thank you for making my day extra special. It started with early wishes and ended with a birthday dinner. My day was more special with each of you in it some way or another. I got smiles from cards, smiles from simple birthday e-mails, from a boss that said we were 3 birthdays [...]
