  • Mid-life

    27 Mar 2007 » 4 min read about Reading & Books

    It is official. I have officially reached “mid-life” today. According to Psalm 90:10: “The days of our years are threescore years and ten…” That’s 70 years old for those of you who don’t count in scores. And the midway point of three score years and ten is 35 years of age, which is what I…

    My vacation ended shortly after 5 PM yesterday when I arrived home from the airport. I was up at about 8:30 AM and Lisa and I headed out for a walk around the Boardwalk, enjoying the bright, warm Florida sunshine once more before having to head home. We decided to stop in at Norm and…

    Obviously, I’ve been busy and having a great time because I really haven’t had a chance to post in several days. I’m going to work on back-posting all about my adventure at Disney World and Norm and Vicky’s wedding this evening. Those of you who read my blog on your friends page may not see…

  • Norm and Vicky’s wedding reception

    25 Mar 2007 » 7 min read

    We arrived at the reception, which started out as a kind of cocktail hour. We stood in a short line to sign the guest book and were amused by the text that was printed on the back of our little tickets (I can’t find mine or I would reproduce it here for you. Suffice it…

    Norm, Andy, and Scott were going to use our hotel room to get ready for the wedding. A photographer and videographer would be on-hand to capture the fiasco. Norm was the first to arrive, and seemed in high spirits. He was followed closely by the videographer. Norm was on and off the phone working out…

    24 Mar 2007 » 1 min read about Fitness & Health

    I slept in as late as I could and that turned out to be just about 9 AM. I tossed and turned between 8 and 9 and finally decided to get up and go to the gym to do some kind of workout. Today was an arms and shoulders day, so…

  • Spoodles and Jellyrolls

    24 Mar 2007 » 1 min read

    Some rest. We watched a couple of episodes of Friends, including, ironically, the Chandler/Monica wedding episode. It was nice to be able to relax for a while and stay off your feet. Eventually we had to get up and ready for the evening. Lisa made dinner reservations at Spoodles, which servces a Mediterranean cuisine. It’s…

    Andy, Mandy, Lisa and I caught a shuttle bus from Animal Kingdom to Epcot and if the day hadn’t already been fun, and funny, it was about to get funner and funnier. It all started with Andy’s comment, “Don’t worry, it happens to the best of us.” Wait, let me back up, I’m telling this…
