I walked the same route today and I felt pretty good. The sun was getting pretty low when I started and by the time I finished it was getting dark. The weather was perfect. Toughening up my feet is going to take some work. After about a mile and a half they start feeling like … [Read more…]
Living in motels has been frustrating. Even though I’m in an extended-stay room with a kitchenette, I don’t have a desk. My options for using the computer have been, to sit on a bar stool and use the computer on the kitchenette counter, or sit in a little padded green armchair with arms so narrow … [Read more…]
I found this combo at Walmart. The turtle wasn’t designed for the frame, but Cami loves turtles so I felt like it fit.
A co-worker gave me the idea to make an iPhone stand from Legos. A trip to the local Lego Store gave me the supplies I needed in the colors I wanted.
I got this nice little surprise a few days ago. The water tends to drain slowly in the tub so I got a good long look at the grossness. No wonder the water was tasting bad sometimes. The Brita filter pitcher was a very welcome addition to the fridge. This was the day after a … [Read more…]
The weather was so inviting today, I just had to get out and experience it first hand. The temperature was in the low 70s, with some nice sunshine.

Cami brought me along to her doctor appointment. When I saw the ultrasound, of course I had to try out my favorite new toy, my iPhone: I was really amazed to see the baby moving so much. I get a little tears in my eyes when I think about it really being ours.
I went for a long walk today and couldn’t believe all the beauty around me. Springtime is my favorite season. I love the yellow-green color of the new leaves and the birds are going crazy everywhere. And of course the poison ivy along the sidewalk added a little drama. Not that I touched it. I … [Read more…]
I have two Swing-A-Way can openers back in Utah. They are like true and trusted friends, solidly built and likely to outlast just about anything else in the kitchen. Packed in box 2500 hundred miles away, they are useless to me. Here in Raleigh, yesterday, in an extended-stay motel, I needed to open a can … [Read more…]
I will get to see Cami tomorrow, if the flights cooperate. 🙂 I will be flying standby, and there is a chance I won’t find an open seat. It’s a chance I’ll have to take. Party on Wayne!
