Been tagged by chloe and I know all the chicks want me to so here goes.

10 years ago

I was on the southern border. Douglas, Arizona. Working in the cold and the wind and the dust. Not much to say about that. I was a volunteer coach for the high school girl's soccer team which I enjoyed very much. I had forgotten more about soccer than the actual coach ever knew. I did my share of yelling out direction but it all paid off when one of the girls who I clashed with from the start came up after practice one day and said "coach, now I understand. Thanks for all you've taught me".

I'd love to do that again.

5 years ago

I was going into my second year of Calgary winters. I had seen the beauty of the northern lights directly over my head. Shoveling the driveway didn't seem as fun as the first winter. Work was great.

Last year

My grandson was two months old and my dad was five months gone. I was a few days away from holding Conroy for the first time and wondering if he and his great grandfather had crossed paths and talked in some spiritual place between the presence of God and the world.

Yesterday

I was on the computer most of the day and in the evening became angry at my wife for giving my ATM card to my daughter who then promptly lost it.

Five yummy things

Saltenas (Bolivian food)
Tim Horton's hot chocolate

Hi there,

You ARE an interesting dude!
 
that volunteering thing is so impressive and nice. and your thoughts about your dad and grandson crossing paths.
I loved hill street blues although i shouldn't have been watching it. It used to be on too late and i was too young. But i loved the music, and i have found the mp3 now.
 
Thank you vesper.

That's one of the religion type beliefs I've chosen to stick with chloe. That kind of weigh station between worlds.
