Well James is gone to traffic court in Boone. I am praying they are understanding and willing to continue the case so maybe we can get a few things taken care of and come back and do the case after Christmas if we are lucky.

I took Kenneth to do some Trick R Treating on Halloween. We went to two churches, one in Newland ( Read more... )

Have you ever felt dizzy from the words running circles in your head? The millions of things you want to explain to people and yet you feel like you can't. Their is a filter stuck between your brain and your fingers that tries to calm the pain, ease the chaos, find the bright side in things. Some days I just ( Read more... )

Darkness has a quality about it that most people never touch. You find it described over and over in books, movies, even children’s tales to each other under bed covers late at night. Inky Black Darkness, Velvet Deep Darkness, Impenetrable Darkness, a million descriptions all that circle the same small ( Read more... )

Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow.

So Kenneth actually experienced his first snow day from school today. Its a little early but I think that's a good sign, the slopes could sure use a good year.

As most of you know, we finally got to buy a cheap little prepaid phone on Sunday for my birthday, so if ( Read more... )

Had a decent day at work today. I had to work breakfast and lunch. Richie Houston came in today. It is always neat seeing people from high school. Apparently Sarah (his wife) has taught him well cause he over tipped while his friend way undertipped. Maybe Richie was covering for him though. I didn't get a lot of ( Read more... )

Plans and Dreams

I have been thinking a bit today about my plans and such. I started a list at 43things.com a few years ago and like most all the other things I do, I lost track of it. I need to get on there when I can and update the things that I have finished and change some of the things listed. I guess a lot ( Read more... )

Well, it is our buddy Rocky's birthday today. We went by to see his girl/kids for a little bit today but he wasn't going to be off for a while so we had to head out. It is amazing to think about the number of years we have all passed together. I have known Rocky for 9 years now. That is a huge number for me. I ( Read more... )

Well James and I made a quick trip into Boone after he picked me up from Pete's. Let me just say that helping out in the moving things and such, today, was quite a bit of nonsense. I got to Pete's at noon and noone was there. So I waited and waited and eventually one of the chef's show up and tells me that Lisa ( Read more... )

Getting ready to head into work for a while. I told lisa I would come in and help get the restaurant re-set up to open tomorrow. They are bringing a lot of stuff from the other restaurant and changing the menu and rearranging everything. I was gonna go for most of the day but James and I really need to get to ( Read more... )

It has been a very long and intense weekend. I was supposed to work yesterday morning and then leave at 11 and come back at 5. We were so slammed and 2 waitresses did not show up so I ended up working lunch also. We got so slammed that we used every bit of the ribs, turkey and brisket and when 3pm rolled ( Read more... )
