Dave Update: With the kids at home to help Dave (most of the help he needs now is picking up stuff that he’s dropped, by the way), I was able to go back out to the weekend crop on Saturday and take advantage of a few more hours of making pages. Dave had a really … Read more
Dave Update: Friday was a pretty good day for him. He was able to rest very comfortably, and after the kids came home from school he walked up and down our block — the kids walked the dog. With the back brace he’s keeping very nice posture while he back heals… He’s looking great, and … Read more
Today I added my name…my blog…to the rolls of the National Blog Post Month list, brought to you by BlogHer.com. Feel free to join in… I have a lot of talk about this month, including updates on Dave’s post-surgery recovery, which should make this easy to do. Even if I just take an iPhone picture … Read more
Before I get into the main topic of this post, first let me say that this was a much much better day for Dave’s recovery. He woke up in a good mood, and seemed to do well while I was briefly at a Hurlburt Spouses’ Club board meeting during mid-morning. He even took a couple … Read more
Enjoy some pictures I took of the spectacular fall colors at Great Smoky Mountains National Park last week. I was in the area training for my AF Reserve job. These are too pretty not to share with the world! You’ll notice that I’m in my winter coat (it was in the low 50s) for some … Read more

This list had circulated among currently-serving servicemembers’ e-mail accounts this past week. Check out the list here! You’ll see that many businesses actually offer their promotions year round (such as Anheuser-Busch theme parks, Lowe’s, … Read more
Today I got home from my two-week AF Reserve tour. Having to get on a plane and fly to my two-week tour is actually a first for me…unless you count the year I deployed, which I’m not. I’d have had to fly to that one no matter where Dave was stationed 🙂 A tad chilly … Read more
Dave Navarro, me, Perry Farrell, Steve Perkins, & Chris Chaney. I’ve seen other friends do it — they post pictures on Facebook of celebrities they’ve seen at airports, or on their flights, or at a store. The pictures are taken from afar, zoomed in, etc. I have a couple of Michael Franti from this past … Read more
I took these pictures while on a run on Wednesday morning. I need to learn more about some of these flowers, but these are around a stop sign on a nearby street corner. I took these with my iPhone camera, and several of the pictures were zoomed in and didn’t turn out so well. Enjoy! … Read more
