I do it all...

Those of you who know me (personally) will be a little shocked when I tell you this story. No it's not some deep secret or anything like that. I agreed to do some caulking and painting at my office this weekend. With time and a half thrown in my face, how was I to choose otherwise?

I'm not exactly Bob Villa...Or even Bob the Builder. I did great in woods class in high school, but as far as general around the house repair I am not your man. My boss said, "Chase, do you think you'd be able to get this room finished this weekend?". I replied quickly, obviously before thinking and said, "Well sure!".

I spent a little over 7 hours at the office today and I am hardly 3/4 of the way finished. Not only is our pre-press room massive, but there was caulking, spackling and taping to be done. I plan on spending another 4-5 hours to finish it tomorrow, and I hope they're happy. I cut my finger and it hurt...Pretty bad.

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.
