Today was the first snow that we’ve been around for.  It didn’t accumulate much, just a little on the grass and leaves but it was enough to see.  I’m not ready for winter yet. In other news, my cold has ebbed and flowed all day today.  Shortly after work, I took some more Sudafed and […]

Yesterday, my sister gave birth to a bouncing baby boy!  May I present to you my new nephew, Ethan!  Baby and mom are doing just fine.  Judging from the pictures, the grandparents and sister are doing pretty good too!

Around 5 am this morning, I lept out of bed upon hearing Teddy howling, barking, and bellowing at the top of his dog-lungs.  I suspected at this point that Teddy was having a seizure, so I started calling for him as I sped down the stairs.  He wasn’t at his usual spot by the door, […]

Well, I am definitely afflicted with some sort of illness.  I woke up early this morning to see the Dukeses off, and realized quickly that I had a sore throat.  I have a mild headache, that lovely feeling of partially stuffy and partially runny sinuses, and a feeling like I’ve got a cotton ball stuck […]

Today Tasha and I went to the chiropractor for the first time in about five weeks, which was long overdue.  I thought I was doing just fine until the doctor started my adjustment, then I noticed that my lower back and lower neck were both very sore.  My neck went off like a shot on […]

We started off our day having leftover Beau Jo’s pizza, and then we ventured out into the world to show Matt and Sarah Black & Read, the bookstore where Tasha works.  After wandering around for awhile and finding some treasures, we started toward Casa Bonita for some fun, food, and festive atmosphere. Unfortunately, our trip […]

The Dukeses arrived to visit us from Illinois today!  They brought Sam along with them, who absolutely adores Teddy.  Teddy tolerates toddler-love pretty well, but I can tell that he doesn’t know what to do with the kid from time to time.  My living room has been makeshift childproofed, with most everything above knee height […]

After a long work day today, Tasha and I opted for a night out.  We grabbed a Beau Jo’s pizza and then went to Black & Read to do a little shopping.  The rest of tonight has been spent in boring fashion, catching up on TV and browsing Ebay for something to spend my $8.45 […]

Last week I had the good fortune to find myself back in Illinois.  I did make it to karate in between the massive amounts of family visits, get-togethers, and hanging out with my niece.  It was a good workout, however I have found that the excess of red blood cells that I am afforded when […]

We made our customary 15.5 hour drive back to Colorado last night, and let me tell you… I-76 in the dark is one desolate stretch of road.  Tasha and I arrived home around 11 pm and went right to bed.  We slept in, but not very long this morning because we had to go pick […]
