Family Dinner

Most of my family (parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins) live with an hour of each other. I live about 12 hours away from home. So, needless to say, I don’t make it home for family dinners too often. So, instead, we have weekly family dinners at our house in Memphis! This started about a year

My mom, the Runner!

My mom retired a couple of years ago. To mark her retirement, we took a road trip through the Southwest US. It’s like a whole other country out there. The trees, the sun, the houses–they all look different. We drove hundreds (actually over a thousand) of miles and explored lots of cool National Parks. And,

My brother’s a daddy!

In mid-July, I became an aunt for the first time and it’s an awesome thing. My brother, Kevin, and sister-in-law, Amanda, welcomed baby Adahlae Grace into the world. She’s the cutest, smartest, most wonderful baby EVER!

Obligations and obsessions

I recently read a blog post by Donald Miller about the two words that kill passion. Those words are: “Ought to.” Every morning I wake up and think, “I ought to go for a run.” Rarely, anymore, do I think, “I want to go for a run.” I mostly blame this shift from the I

Cable Update #3

So, I came home last night to find…CABLE was restored! Choruses of “Hallelujah” rang out from my apartment. I turned on the TV, sat down and haven’t moved since. Not really. I was actually only home about 3 and a half minutes before I had to leave. But, I did turn the TV on and

Cable update #2

Here’s my most recent email to the powers that be regarding my lack of cable. And, to answer your question…No. I still don’t have cable. Sometimes I turn on the TV just to watch the white dots and the black dots dance in perfect harmony. It’s a beautiful, diverse mixture…then, the harsh static noise breaks

No Cable…update #1

So, I haven’t had cable in about 14 days. No, I didn’t forget to pay the bill. I don’t have to pay a bill. (And, no, I don’t steal cable either. I’m honest…it’s rude for you to even think that of me!) The reality is that my former job required me to live in an
