I just need to survive October. I hate it when I feel like I’m just keeping my head above water, but sometimes that’s just how things are. I am in Arlington next week for work and I’ll be in El Paso the week after that. I’m not sure where I’ll have internet access and how … Continue reading →

It’s been a crazy week. It’s amazing how much of a creature of habit I have become so when my schedule gets mixed up and my routine is interrupted, it throws me all off course. I only have madness like this through the end of the month, so it’s nice to know that it’s only … Continue reading →

As I mentioned before I left, I spent the last two weeks in Dallas for work. Basically, I’m a recruiter for a college, so I spend time in the fall in various … Continue reading →

This morning, I’m off to Dallas for two weeks for work. It’s been a whirlwind of a weekend because I just found out Friday afternoon that I was going and I also had a retreat for a student group Friday afternoon and evening. I spent the weekend getting my ducks in a row by doing … Continue reading →

Sorry for the delay in finishing my New Orleans story. I wanted Carrie to have the opportunity to post first because, after all, she was the American Idol hopeful. This will be the story from the perspective of an observer, sort of. Technically, I was a contestant. Each contestant can only bring one guest into … Continue reading →

Once something is finished*, I instantly turn to what’s next. For now, the next thing will be Christmas gifts. I really don’t want to wait to the last minute to get these completed, so I’m trying to make some progress on them now. One of them I should be able to show you but the … Continue reading →
