Scott and I just got back from having dinner with Dad. It was nice, we ate at Fernandos, a rather 3rd rate Mexican restaurant in West Omaha. But the waiter was nice and the food wasn’t terrible. Just too high priced for the quality. Unfortunately, down in South O there are far better ones thatContinue reading “not a flash in the pan”

my what a day
Today started off innocuously enough. Our typical morning routine: get up, watch the news, watch a little of one of the saved programs, get showered. Then, we began to deviate from our schedule a bit. Instead of Scott heading off to work, we drove down to the courthouse and applied for a marriage license! TheContinue reading “my what a day”

This is my “homework” for week two of “Rediscovering Relationship with Self”. Reflect and Journal about an experience when you worked in a spiritual gift area that is one of your LOWEST scored areas.

more thoughts on last night
As I think about last night’s unusual conversation with Dad, I’m struck by the thought that, in a way, we’ve come full circle. Thirteen years ago, last month, is when I first came out to Mom and Dad. I don’t think about that too much, as it was quite a painful experience of all threeContinue reading “more thoughts on last night”

Cinderfella
Well, my little pay back period last week only lasted a day. Yay! The rest of last week, I spent doing… well… stuff. Wednesday, in spite of feeling better, I kind of loafed most of the day. That evening, Scott and I had dinner with Dad. Thursday, I had an interview with the firm IContinue reading “Cinderfella”
