  • St. George, The Kids and A Time To Cry

    Despite what the title states, there was no crying involved by my part. This past weekend we headed down to St. George (Southern Utah) to visit some kids that we might become the foster parents of for a few months.  I’ve met the kids a few times in my life, but I never really got…

  • Deseret Industries – the pit of despair

    Deseret Industries Warehouse I’ve never been a fan of the DI. This weekend I had the opportunity to volunteer at the DI as one of the sorters. I thought I would be serving on the doc where everyone drops off their junk, like I do occasionally. Instead they asked me to stay inside and help…

  • Salt Lake 5k – revisited

    It’s a week since the Salt Lake 5k. I managed to not come in last. My time is 35 minutes flat, which works out to be 11ish minute miles. Have I mentioned I’m not a runner? In fact I can’t stand running. I also can’t stand going to the gym or doing any kind of…

  • I did it for the fullest experience

    The woman says to me today ‘let’s go to dinner’. We have two small children. Every time we go out anywhere the kids get restless and just want to run around the building. Tonight they were playing with their friends and having a great time. I didn’t want to end the kids fun so I…

  • Salt Lake 5k (I don’t do marathons)

    Next week is the Salt Lake 5k. I’ve made my best efforts to run the race every year for the last few years, except last year. Before that I missed it the year we went to New York. I could have made that race but the in-laws wouldn’t let me for fear that I would…

  • Disneyland 2010

    This blog is about Disneyland. More to the point, it’s about our trip to Disneyland. To be clear, Disneyland is in California and Disney world is in Florida. I have to make this clear because a few years back I was going to leave something hidden in the park and a friend told me he…

  • Posting from my phone

    I’m a proud owner of T-Mobiles MyTouch. If you can read this, than this new apparently makes this phone the coolest thing around.

  • Thanksgiving of all days

    You heard me. Today is Thanksgiving 2009. I’ve not reported lately because there’s not much to report. Last week I had the opportunity to go to court to represent my work, Hit Web design, in a lawsuit that was just silly. The plaintiff was arguing that we did the work and it was right, but…

  • The way it was…

    Yesterday was Natalie’s 28th (33rd actually) birthday. The past two weeks Natalie’s family has been staying at our home, which means my basement has been host to them. I have no problem with it at all, however I do think it’s nice when I get my basement back. That’s where I am now. In my…

  • Conference Weekend

    Once again it’s Conference Weekend (finally). I am fortunate that I live in this valley where I can sit in my home and watch conference. Though, some day I’m going to have to take my girls down to the meganacle so they can see the service up close. That will be a few years still.…
