It’s time to SLOW DOWN
Give me a break! This week, I’m tired. I worked Friday night (a normal day off), I worked a longer than normal Sunday, and I had an extra long day on Monday. Concurrently, I’m also pushing myself on some personal projects which keep me up late most nights. I need to slow down. I need a break. […]

Baggage weighing you down?
Big trash pick up Saturday was big trash pick up in Shawnee, Kansas. Not special news to most people, but it was spectacular for Kia and I. I was amazed, amused and fascinated by the trucks, trailers and minivans full of other people’s junk. I literally sat on my porch for nearly an hour watching […]
