So I came home from backpacking a day earlier. That was actually planned the previous day and it’s a good thing. Turns out, that morning (that’d be yesterday) I woke up with what I thought were raging allergies. Turns out it’s a full blown head/chest cold. So here I am … Continue reading
The last week has been a rush. Edi’s been out of town and I’ve been batchin it with the kids. Honestly, I’ve loved it. Right now I can’t really imagine *not* flying, but if she ever banged out the bux, I’m thinkin I could be Mr. Mom no problem. My … Continue reading
Here’s the story: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20040722/ap_on_re_us/sept_11_flight93_2 The conclusion: The commission concluded that the hijackers remained at the controls of the plane, “but must have judged that the passengers were only seconds from overcoming them.” So let me get this straight. Had the cockpit been ‘breachable’, the passengers might have been able to … Continue reading
Why so quiet, you ask? Okay, so nobody’s asking me why I’m not making any noise. But I’ll tell you anyway, since that’s what LJ is all about… (isn’t it?!?) Edi’s out of town for the week in Dallas at a Mary Kay convention. It’s their big annual ‘seminar’. I’m … Continue reading
As always, it’s good to be home. Frankfurt was too short to do anything. I did go out for Thai food (go figure), but went to bed early. Just couldn’t stay awake anymore. Which, of course, means I was up in the middle of the night. Oh well… I’m still … Continue reading
I finally got my Porc Fest Pics up. Some of you are in them 😉 Here they are: http://sugargroup.net/varrin/photos/porcfest2004/ If anyone can help me out with names, that’d be great. I think I got most of the ones up there right, but there’s some I’m not sure of and some … Continue reading
So first things first, Thanks to …. the unnamed poster who left the first comment on my LJ… Glad you enjoyed Florida 😉 I’ve been missin Florida myself. And it looks like we’ll probably not take a trip there in ’05 since everyone’s pretty much coming up to visit us … Continue reading
Well, I’m out working again. The good news is, I actually made all my connections to get to Venice on time. I had 1:07 in San Francisco and *wasn’t* checked in for the flight. Miraculously, I made it. Then I had :45 in Paris but we were 10 minutes late … Continue reading
I know I haven’t done my now-long-overdue Porc Fest update, but life keeps moving and so do I. This is the day we Americans celebrate our independence. Since it’s a Sunday, it only makes sense that Church have a festive 4th of July theme. Indeed, we sang patriotic songs, honored … Continue reading
Well, I really don’t have time at this very moment to write much and there’s sooooo much to write. Had a great week in New Hampshire at the Porcupine Freedom Festival and in Keene working with my builder. The bottom line is…. it was GREAT! Now we have a lot … Continue reading
