today is the next step in the journey......paw
Good to hear, Mike.
You sure sound like you have a lot of things going on. A busy man, you are! And certainly good news about Eric.
It's snowing in Texas. This is rare. And when I say it's snowing, I mean it, it's snowing!
Have a good day all.

Living a happy, joyous, and free life by embracing the mind, body, and spirit.
Yeah, I agree coming from your neck of the woods.
I think the last time I saw it snow like this in Texas was around 2004 or so. It's been a long time. And of course, when it snows here (or ices), everything closes. People rarely drive on ice/snow in Texas, and it creates a bit of a road hazard for everyone if they do.
Hello!
Glad to be here. Congratulations on being a Great Grandpa Mike!
Glad you are feeling better Clinton! I was thinking about you too! Have you decided where you are going yet?
PAW, you know I am always willing to talk to you! Except for the fact that I didn't have internet, phone, or cable service for two weeks. I can't get sober.com for mobile service either. I had to wait for everything until Tuesday, and I did check in then. I will try to check in everyday just for you!!
Keep coming back, I know I will!
Ann
Good morning! (At least on the west coast it's 9am)
How is everyone doing today? Hope everyone has a great weekend! Watch the Olympics and enjoy your Valentines Day!
Mike you will adapt. There will be things you miss, but there will be new things you will like! I moved out here with my family after being in MN for 28/29 years. It is a big change after being in one place for so long!
Okay, well promised I would check in. I have a family birthday to celebrate today and tomorrow, so I gotta go!
Keep coming back!
Ann,
It should be either: Georgia, Louisiana, or Colorado. I am leaning heavily on Colorado and Georgia. I have applied to three programs, and am waiting to hear back.
All,
Happy Vday! Pat, Ann, Mike, I hope you all have a great weekend. Maybe the weather will get a wee bit better for all of us soon.
Today has been such a miserable day at work. I am apart of the skeleton crew. I work at a pre- cast concrete company, and because the weather is below freezing, the manufacturing plant did not come to work. I work in a attached office and there are very few of us here today. Phones aren't ringing, no customers, just boredom. Luckily I brought a few books and I am getting to catch up on some stuff.
Hope all is well,
Clint
