Happy Trails Again!
In my earlier two posts, I was a little uncertain about some of the dates. The “Emergency ATG” was indeed held in Houston, however it was in February 1999. The Atlanta ATG was in September 1999. Also, the mother I wrote about was Trudie’s mother, not Rays! (My apologies to my friends Trudie & Ray.)
The Executive Committee met twice per year over a long weekend (Thursday night through Sunday morning.)
While in Houston, we’d shared our email addresses, probably on some kind of sign in sheet. I confess again, my memory of these little details is a bit foggy after 15 years. Anyhow, Jerry began sending out email, as I recall, with things that needed to be accomplished. Along with these emails, Jerry began solicitingContinue reading “The Trap is Sprung”
I guess it was inevitable that at some point I’d have to get hit by a 2×4. This past week I got a good wallop from said chunk of lumber. In the grand scheme of things I’m a relatively healthy guy. Sure, I have my problems, and some of them make life less than aContinue reading “Oh, Crap, I’ve gone and done it now”
OK, I blew it. I promised three a week, and last week I only made 2 posts. My apologize to those of you who are counting… ARE any of you actually counting? Probably not. On the other hand, the week before I made 4 posts, so the last two weeks AVERAGE out to THREE aContinue reading “Home from Florida”
We’re only 3 days into the New Year and already I’m worried about that promise Sunday! I really have no idea what I’m going to write 3 blog entries a week, when last year I was hard put to write 12 in the whole year! So, I’m going to ask you all to help meContinue reading “The Year Ahead”
In 2011, I posted a total of 12 blog entries. And so, today I thought “Self, in 2011 you successfully quit smoking (yeah!) – what can you do to top that as a New Years’ Resolution? Wanna know what I came up with? My New Years resolution for 2012 is (drum roll please)… To postContinue reading “New Years Day, 2012”
It’s interesting, really, how memory can play games with you. I have a memory… I won’t claim it’s a strong memory… of being told by my mother how hot it was when I was born. I also vaguely recall that I was born in the pre-dawn hours. So, it’s hard for me to reconcile theseContinue reading “Remember When?”
It’s really hard for me to believe that so much time has gone by since my last entry here! First just to wrap up from my last entry (entitled “Ouch”), Scott diligently packed my wound every morning, and became an old pro at it in no time! By June 8th, there was nothing left toContinue reading “Insert Boring Post Title Here”
Gosh, has it been nearly two weeks???? At last writing, I had thrown in the towel on my Walking Challenge… only to have several of my readers pick it up and throw it back at me! So, now there are several of us involved in the Challenge… and today is the last day of theContinue reading “the 3 day”
Okay, I have to admit to being a little disappointed. I had hoped that more than one person would take me up on my challenge. When one gets enthused about something, something that really really fires them up, I think it’s easy for them to lose sight that not everyone is as excited as theyContinue reading “Challenges”
