- I had dinner with one of my oldest friends yesterday and he dispelled some unexpected wisdom my way while watching the Rangers game. We were talking about my turning 40 and how on these milestone birthdays, people want to just look at the big wins in life. He went on to explain that big wins are okay, and they are noticeable and great, but you have to take into consideration all the small victories in life because they add up, and sometimes you may not even remember them or even know a moment was a victory. I took from it, it’s okay if I don’t have the corner office or job title, but there are a lot of things I have done in life that I should be proud of, even if it’s keeping this blog up and running, and of course all the time I spend doing stuff for the family.
- My friend also had many kind words to say about this blog and how it means more to people than I think.
- BoyGeeding was upset at DaughterGeeding and decided to bite her on her back, and it left a mark. I leave the house to have dinner with a friend one time and the kids start biting each other, at least our pets’ heads aren’t falling off.
- I was really happy and proud of, LiberallyLean, for hiking up Guadalupe Peak. I was also glad he shared how tough it was. Since I don’t do half-marathons or run in events like him, I had nothing to compare my experience with. I did find it strange to read the comments on his post, I was curious as to what he readers would say about this great little accomplishment but found someone attacking me for something I posted earlier in the day. I should have known better.

- I don’t often say that a woman is a “10”, but the CBS11 traffic reporter certainly is almost worthy, definitely a strong to very strong “9.25”. WifeGeeding thinks she’s a “10”. She really got my attention when they had her do a Six Flags Fright Fest segment in costume.
