Lent, Personal Progress, and Adoption

I’ve surprised myself at how well I’ve done at not checking in on work after I leave the office.  I can’t say I haven’t been tempted, though — I have.  I did finally give in last night…  we might have a technical person coming out to visit today and I hadn’t heard anything about the [...]

Reinventing Lent

I’ve got some more snow storm photos and updates to post, but I’m a little behind… I’ll catch up, I promise!

Disney 2010: Day 9

It took us a while to recover from being awake over 24 hours in an attempt to see the space shuttle launch, but we were finally up and around, and ready for lunch by 2pm.  The first thing we did was go check out the “Most Unique McDonald’s in the World” right down the street.  [...]
