A Very Heart-Felt Thank You

Thursday, July 12th, 2007

I usually try to post every day between 11 and 11:30 before I go to lunch. Today, I haven't really been able to hit upon what I want to say. The one thing I keep going back to is this: thank you. For those of you who make up this blog ...

Something I Never Realized I Missed

Tuesday, May 8th, 2007

It’s All Coming Up Roses Now…

Monday, April 23rd, 2007

I think that anyone can see from my last entry that I seemed to be teetering on the brink of depression and burnout. The reason you gathered this is most likely because I came right out and said it. Last week was supposed to be a great week for us. ...
