Striving for a transparent & authentic life
I fell, kind of like my baby does when I let him sit on the floor too long, and I made a decision: I want to live a more transparent life. Hurricanes and forced time inside provide plenty of time for contemplation. It’s better than worrying. *Our house and family made it through Hurricane Sandy [...]
So, here’s the deal. It’s been a rough couple of months. I don’t really have anything good to say right now, so I’m following my mother’s advice and not saying anything at all. Or not much anyway.

From what I understand I am now supposed to share seven things about myself… I have been a Christian [...]
