Sunday, June 17, 2012. Living a Life in Limbo. You can get so confused. That you'll start in to race. Down long wiggled roads at a break-necking pace. And grind on for miles across weirdish wild space,. Headed, I fear, toward a most useless place. For people just waiting. One afternoon a couple years ago, my son, who was five, was watching a DVD about the Spanish Amada or maybe Sir Francis Drake. My mom amazed at his knowledge said “One day, E is going to be teacher.”. I was asked to fill out the New Pat...

Sunday, May 27, 2012. Why I Will Not Remain Silent. 8220;Never, never be afraid to do what's right, especially if the well-being of a person or animal is at stake. Society's punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way.”. 8213; Martin Luther King Jr. Today a friend remarked that he didn't understand how I could continue writing about my story without going crazy.

Races, Runs and Other Events. Friday, October 26, 2012. Leaving a friend in the dust.feeling bad. I tried to find her on facebook, but it seems she might be a hold out on that front. I am going to track her down first thing this morning to explain about having to get my kids and I will promise her that if she will give us another chance we will totally hang with her. I hope I didn't discourage her, and I feel like I should have known better. Sigh I'll get it right next time. I promise! Links to this post.
