Gram-tastic: 04.12
http://gramtastic.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Do not abandon yourselves to despair. We are the Easter people, and hallelujah is our song. Pope John Paul II. We live in a world where so many people are dealing with hard things. There are health issues, employment issues, family issues - the list just goes on and on. Sometimes my heart breaks for my friends and loved ones and sometimes it aches for myself. Life is not easy and it's so easy to get discouraged and even to feel despair. So indeed, we need not (and must not. Picture by Del Parson. Flip Fl...

Gram-tastic: Tragedy
http://gramtastic.blogspot.com/2012/12/tragedy.html
I can't take in this recent school tragedy. As a teacher, a parent, a grandparent and a human being, I am heartsick at the senseless loss of beautiful children and teachers. These beautiful words come straight from the blog of one of my favorite writers, Robert Brault. He always knows what to say and how to say it and his words (while they make me cry - again) have given me some comfort and eased the aching that I feel in my heart as I contemplate this horrific event. Child lost, do you suppose. Sugar an...

The most beautiful sight in the world is a little child going confidently down the road after you have shown him the way. There have been piano lessons, tai-kwon-do, volleyball, swimming (both lessons and swim team), gymnastics, tumbling - you name it, it's been done by one of the kiddoes this year. And they have all grown and stretched themselves in lots of ways. All 4 of them are fantastic readers, which is a great foundation for them to continue building their education upon. 1 people spoke up. I was ...

Gram-tastic: Catching Up
http://gramtastic.blogspot.com/2012/03/catching-up.html
My last past was 2 months ago? This is a graphic example of how quickly the time is going these days. There always seems to be something going on to keep me busy, for sure. I also had the chance to accompany my talented friend Macy as she did her presentation at a "Time out for Women" - this time in Idaho Falls, Idaho. It was a quick trip for me but always fun to do my best to help her do her. Because I'm old. Made me smile. So there is something good about being old. Life is definitely wonderful! Glimps...

Gram-tastic: Jogging is Dangerous?
http://gramtastic.blogspot.com/2012/03/jogging-is-dangerous.html
I picked myself up and trudged the rest of the way home (I was pretty much almost there, dang it! And as I did I noticed that my fourth finger on the right hand was feeling like it had been jammed. And then I looked at it - the tip of the finger (by the last knuckle) was just. Nearly dangling and I couldn't move it back up unless I used my other hand. I iced it and waited but ended up calling an orthopedic doc on Monday because I need. They had me in yesterday and the diagnosis is mallet finger. If it ma...

8206;"The road back to God is a road of moral effort, of trying harder and harder. But.it is not the trying that is ever going to bring us home. All this trying leads up to the vital moment at which you turn to God and say, 'You must do this. I can't.'. Is what is difficult, and to be able to admit that I can't do something on my own is tough. But if I have learned anything at all, it's that there are surely things that I can't. Do on my own and to put them in His hands is the only answer. 4 1/2 years old.

Sin City Dirt: Christmas 2009
http://sincitydirt.blogspot.com/2009/12/christmas-2009.html
Friday, December 25, 2009. Sleeping through it all. Waiting to see what Santa Brought. Santa had just stopped by (Sienna's letter to Santa up on the fireplace). Reading the "Night Before Christmas" on Christmas Eve. Its been a great Christmas! Its interesting to see just how permeant digital memory has become in our lives. It seems like everytime I turn my head, I see something with a card slot or USB port . I guess. It makes sense though, considering how cheap memory has become lately. Um grande Beijo ;D.

Sin City Dirt: November 2009

Monday, November 23, 2009. General Chows Chicken's Jam Session. So my buddy Ethan and I have this jam band (actually we have only played together about 3 times due to geographic restraints.) But let me tell you we had a great session about two weeks ago that made me realize how much I miss jamming. I will say we tore up the garage for a solid 4 hours and punished some serious bbq afterwords (ahh the good life). Dr Phil and Halloween. All the candy is gone and the hair finally grew back.
