The past few nights I have not been sleeping properly. A couple nights in a hotel and getting ready to go meetup with my team have led to some tossing and turning. This afternoon has been great though. Getting together with family and friends we went for a two hour hike through the woods toContinue reading “Should Sleep Tonight”

Dance Competition Dad
For the past two weekends our family has stepped into the world of dance competitions for the first time. All three of our oldest daughters have been involved with dance at some point.

March Challenge Update
The challenge I had given myself for March was to read and become more productive. While there is still a lot of work to do and a lot of progress I can make I did come a ways. Typically I would read maybe one book a month, and this month I was able to readContinue reading “March Challenge Update”
Some Old Man
Jen and Ella were singing some Jordan Knight song tonight. Caile didn’t care for it so Jen warned her that it was the New Kids On The Block she was talking about. Caile replied That’s not the New Kids On The Block it’s just some old man.

Presenting WordPress
One of the goals I’ve been working on is to try and get out of my comfort zone a bit and start doing some public speaking. Being up in front of people is not overly fun for me, but I do see the good of doing it. One area where I can see me potentiallyContinue reading “Presenting WordPress”

Two nights ago on Friday night I set out for a long run. Pretty much my maximum distance has been about 10k for my runs. I did do 13k once by mistake when I had gotten lost at one point when out for a run at a friends place. My original plan for the nightContinue reading “Angry Legs”
