the new situation
One week post opp and I got a great look at the new situation. The Doc. says I’ll be as strong as ever. Anyone who’s ever tried to use a screw-gun gently can appreciate the one that goes all the way through… Please send me your rare earth magnets so I can practice my new […]
the trouble with trouble
…a reminder from the ego-police that maybe I’m not as tough as I think, and perhaps not every bike ride is a good idea. I am having surgery today, and I’ll be slowed down for a few months of recovery. Thanks to all for your ongoing support.

When you’re ready to lose
Fear is not the enemy. The sharpest moments of clarity I have experienced, continuously follow situations threatening incredible loss.

My cat died today and I am devastated. Before meeting Tabitha 6 years ago I really didn’t care for cats at all. I’ve just always been a dog person. When my dog first met her, he tried to bite her head off (literally). In the following years, she’s won us both over such that today, […]
