  • And Another Thing…

    (follow-up from my “Late” post) Use your signal! It’s not hard. It’s just one little lever on the side of the steering wheel. It won’t kill you to touch it! Accelerate when you’re getting on the interstate. Do you really think it’s smart or safe to enter the freeway going 40 MPH?!?! Don’t make a Read more

  • Somber

    I really have a lot to say, but I’m a little too tired to say it all. Today was a very emotionally and mentally draining day. The obvious need not be stated if you look at the date of this post. But I find it so incredibly hard to believe that it was 7 years Read more

  • What is going on?

    Today has been rough. I just need some good news. My life is great. Please don’t get me wrong. Things could always be so much worse. Right now, I’m trying to wrap my mind around the death of a friend. I just don’t understand it. I don’t really have words right now. I haven’t seen Read more

  • Update to “Disturbing Update”

    Well, they came back. Around noon yesterday (Friday, April 18), our back door was kicked in and a few relatively inexpensive items were stolen. Our alarm did go off, and the police arrived very quickly. Neither of us was home at the time, which is also a blessing. They tried to take Lee’s guitar, but Read more

  • Disturbing Update

    Two nights ago (Sunday, April 6), Lee and I got a phone call from our next door neighbor, around 12:30 (I guess that would actually be morning). We had JUST gone to bed at 12:00 (don’t ask – just too much to get done!!). He was calling to tell us that the police were on Read more
