« Previous Entries Next Entries »The Perfect Age?
Monday, June 2nd, 2008There have been many times in the past month of palling around with Sari that I have thought that being 4 and a half is the perfect age. Four year olds seem to have a certain zeal that I miss. They are learning things at an exponential rate and are funny and cute all at [...]
Shhhh…
Thursday, May 15th, 2008You can hear the trees whisper.
Sari and I were walking home from walking Savvy to school this morning and there was a nice breeze going on. I stopped at one house with trees and said “Sari, close your eyes and tell me what you hear”. I did the same… shhhhh… the sound of the wind [...]
Radiohead and MTV and Exploitation and Trafficking
Tuesday, May 6th, 2008Radiohead and MTV put together a video to raise awareness and increase prevention of human trafficking and exploitation. It’s definitely moving. MTV has more info.
The Dora Stare
Tuesday, April 29th, 2008Ok, here I was, innocently rinsing dishes off, I looked over to the TV and was given the semi-hypnotizing Dora stare on the TV. The four year old was watching Dora, and during the show at times will want the viewing kids to repeat what she says. But, in my context I found it a [...]
Goings Ons
Sunday, April 27th, 2008Meanwhile, my beloved is a blogging away… we have also experienced our first week in Salem. Been to a few lame restaurants, one we walked out on before ordering. Spending more time with Jenna and the kids, getting the house hankered down (I really like our new jacuzzi tub). Enjoying mystery dungeons (yes, Pokémon, I [...]
Salem, Oregon
Friday, April 18th, 2008We’re heeeeere! It’s definitely a college town, more freaks in the downtown than Walla Walla, Wa, which is a good thing in my book, heh! And great restaurants, to boot! And two Gamespots in the downtown mall!
Human Footprint
Wednesday, April 16th, 2008Human Footprint
Somewhat fascinating showing the impact that one average US citizen makes in their lifetime. A little overkill on depicting and dramatizing each facet, but I guess that’s the whole idea.
The one thing I wish they would cover (but don’t think they will, still watching it while I blog) is the amount of waste that [...]
I’m Free to do What I Want
Tuesday, April 8th, 2008My last day at work today. Tomorrow I will be unemployed. Super 1 was an interim job as far as I’m concerned. Future goal to be a Pharmacy Technician is being fulfilled with the online education program that I am taking.
Now I can put more time in with my love getting ready for the big [...]
1, 2, 3 Days Left
Sunday, April 6th, 2008I think I am suffering from Bonine hangover. The name itself makes me think it’s cow based. On road trips I like to play video games when not driving. However, all my life I’ve been a victim of motion sickness. The last time I travelled I picked up the 24 hour Dramamine. That was a [...]
New Job, New Home
Thursday, April 3rd, 2008We are gratefully blessed and happy! Jenna will be starting her new job at Salem Medical May 2nd. And the owner of the house we looked at this evening and immediately wanted called to tell us she would like to rent it to us. She called while we were having a very delicious dinner at India Palace [...]
