Wow I've been busy! This last week flew by, and so much has happened at work. It seems like we had nothing going on for a while, then all of the sudden things just came like a mudslide!


I took a complete attitude 180 this week when it comes to work. To be honest it actually helped. I thought to myself, "how bad can it really be... I sit at a desk everyday for only 8 hours working on a computer. This is what I love. I am not doing data entry, I get to design and create art, so what's all the fuss about? There are people that make clothes for Walmart in some third world country that would do anything for what I have."

I was always the first it seems to hop on the 'THE WHOLE WORLD IS GOING TO END' wagon when things get tough. I soon realized that things are going to be the way they are, and worrying about it isn't going to do anything for me.

For example, as a kid, I swam competitively. I would get so worked up about the cold water for my morning practices that it would seem like my body was going to shut down as soon as I got in the water. If I would have just got in, got going right away and got going I would have warmed up a lot quicker.

I didn't get that then, but I think I am starting to get it now.

The ever changing, never ending list.

I hear a lot about bucket lists. I dunno, maybe I have one. More of my 'lists' are current lists, 5 year lists, 25 year lists...but I guess they all could be bucket lists because we don't know how much time we've got at the dance. Over the past 2 years my wants have drastically changed. I've been focusing on simpler things, true things. Not reaching so much for more, just trying to enjoy what is here more. That goes for family, friends, opportunity, relationships...not material things. (Except I really really want a canoe or kayak so I can get out on the water soon) Is it possible to make a list that won't change?  Is it possible to remain true to the values of a 34 year old father, when those very values seem to have shifted based on life experiences? Are the items on my list too specific? Maybe... Love Honesty Compassion Health Fun More to come on this one I'm pretty sure.

Take us out to the ball game.

Last night we ventured over to the Explorers baseball game after dinner, it was great. Jordan talked to the X's pitching crew out in the bull-pin for a while, and they ended up giving him a ball. He's such a sports guy! The pitcher that gave him the ball said, "Can you give it a throw?" and so he did...over his head out into left field! Of course my diva Bell had more fun doing spins and drinking a slush, but that's all good. I love my family.
