Just Thoughts
My Car is Old
My 2000 Toyota Corrola is old. How old. Some years back the steering wheel grip began falling off, the smooth rubber covering deteriating. For a birthday gift, Shannon bought me a new steering wheel cover (she did get me other birthday gifts besides that). I used the cover but eventually that top of the cover, [...]
Feels like Spring
This afternoon has been sunny with temperatures in the low 50s. It feels like Spring. Heck, after these snowy days, it feels like Summer.
Where Have I Been
This is the first thing I have written on my blog in 2010. The reasons for this absence are 1.) my work at DGI has been extremely busy. It is our great fortune to be part of not 1 but 2 government contracts for enhancing our nation’s electric grid. Being government projects, they require hourly [...]
2009: The Year of Gifts
Sorry if this seems a little incoherent, but I am a bit confused. Not sure where am I. I was in Springfield, TN living in a my home. No, no, I think I was in Orange Beach, AL renting an apartment. No, that can’t be right. Maybe I am in Franklin, TN staying in someone [...]
Life in the OB
Not to make anyone jealous or anything, but today Shannon and I both complained about how hot and muggy it has been. She had to go to the pool today to cool off.
Single Fatherhood
Shannon is in Knoxville this weekend for her cousin’s wedding. I have the kids by myself. So far, so good. It has been a beautiful Saturday afternoon, and Jacob has been playing with his friends outside for the past 5 hours. Ava had a good nap and has been very content. Parenting is easy when [...]
Busy, busy, busy
The business of my work life has prevent too many blog posts. Today, Erik and his family are visiting us for the weekend. Sunday, I am driving to New Orleans to catch a flight to Austin for a meeting on Monday which I will fly back on Monday night, thus not getting home until 2:00 [...]
Target is Amazing
I have never shopped at Target much until recently. When I was in Dallas, a Target store was just 5 minutes from my apartment, but it was not the type of store I would patronage as a single guy in my 20s. I have spent most of my married life and all of my time [...]
Breaking News: Michael Jackson is Dead but Kyle Meadors is Still Alive
Wow. Almost a month since I last posted here. From end of April until mid-May right before we moved, I posted nearly every day. Not sure what happened, but I am going to do better. And I have lots of things to update you on. I will be your daily break from Michael Jackson estate [...]
Randy Johnson-Nolan Ryan Clip
Last night Randy Johnson won his 300th game in MLB. Johnson has long credited some advice from Nolan Ryan the and then Texas Rangers pitching coach Tom House with changing his delivery and taking him from a fast but wild pitcher to a fast pitcher with excellent control. After this meeting, he went on to [...]
