Having spent more than a little time to myself over the past few weeks, I’ve had the opportunity to take an inventory of my life and try to chart out some of the things that I’d like to do. While this is by *no means* a complete list, here’s a couple things that I think …
One of the things that I’m certain that we’ll see during our two weeks overseas is the most regrettable southern migration of my gray hair… to my chin. Don’t get me wrong – I’m grateful that I’m not losing the battle of scalp versus forehead, but…. The gray… IT’S SPREADING! So, don’t be surprised if …
Today begins the Year of the Ox and – with it – another reminder that we are about to enter year three of our adoption saga. What was supposed to be a six to ten month wait has turned into our own version of Chinese Democracy, the G&R album that took fourteen years to make. …
I had the opportunity to visit New Mexico for work this week. I had never been there before and once we arrived in the mountains of Taos, I found it to be beautiful there. It’s different from other areas I’ve visited… much more stoic… with rivers cutting through rock mountains. The entire vibe of the …

In a great internet coincidence, my blog post (“The Day I Almost Died“) has been passed via email to the staff of the Florida Hospital, including several members of the Cath Lab team that saved my life on Sunday, April 27, 2008. Since I didn’t have a chance to thank them personally, I’m hoping that …
After borrowing my iPod to listen to “island music” while swimming… M: All you listen to anymore is that hippy folk music. K: ??? M: Yeah, all you listen to is that Jack Johnson, Chesney, Buffett hippy folk. Hippy folk?? ((shakes head))
So… that myth about me not being much of a reader? Yeah… not so much, at least not accoring to my Google Reader stats. (And this doesn’t take into account for my having worked pretty much every weekend last month – or the family we had in town!) 😉
M: “Who are you calling?” K: “What? ((confused))” M: “Who are you calling?” K: “I’m not calling anyone. This is a remote control.” — M: “What did you just do?” K: “What? ((confused))” M: “You put the orange juice on top of the refrigerator.” K: “Oh. Yeah.” — That whole “growing old gracefully” thing probably …
