Moving Forward in 2025

Hello Readers. In my last post I reflected on 2024. One thing I neglected to mention was that I was baptized for the first time. I've been a Christian since 1993, but I never was baptized. There's no rhyme or reason, I just never did. I did think about baptism. I guess it was more … Continue reading Moving Forward in 2025

Reflecting on 2024

December 31st, 2023, something happened that hadn't happened in a long time. As a matter of fact I don't remember the last time it happened. Usually on New Year's Eve, I'm either sad to see the year end or I'm glad it is over. However, that wasn't the case. I was happy. I'd lost over … Continue reading Reflecting on 2024

Welcome to Evrysdi

October 11th I went in for my annual neuromuscular checkup with Dr. D. He and I have been keeping an eye on developments in SMA research for the last few years. There has been some great advances in finding a cure for SMA. So far there hasn't been a treatment plan that Dr. D and … Continue reading Welcome to Evrysdi

Spring is on the Way

Living in Oklahoma, the weather is rather unpredictable. Here it February 21st and it is sunny and 72 degrees outside. Just a few years ago we had blizzard conditions during this same time. So how do we know for sure when Spring has arrived? I've lived here all my whole life, and there is no … Continue reading Spring is on the Way

Retirement

Yesterday was my first day of retirement. All day I kept thinking it was Saturday, so I guess it hadn't quite sunk in yet. I did however, find myself wanting to text my replacement and get a play-by-play of what she was doing. So I'm declaring this as my first official day of retirement. I know … Continue reading Retirement

New Year – New Chapter

It now 2016. It's funny how time repeats it's self as we go through the cycle of life. Ten years ago I was in my first year as a school librarian at a school most teachers can only dream of teaching. We were truly spoiled back then. Twenty years ago I was in my second … Continue reading New Year – New Chapter

Welcome Back

Well a new school year has started. It seems like just yesterday I was starting the 2012-2013 school year. I am sitting here listening to the Oklahoma State/UTSA game. We are winning and my man JW Walsh is starting quarterback. I am happy, happy, happy. I am also going to school this year. I am … Continue reading Welcome Back

Long Time No Blog

Well, it's been awhile since my last post. Where do I begin? First of all, my Oklahoma State Cowboys only lost one game last year, won the Big 12 Championship, beat Oklahoma, and won the Fiesta Bowl. It was an amazing season. Second, I had some health problems coupled with some depression, anger, and discouragement. … Continue reading Long Time No Blog

Catching Up

Well, life has been busy this week. In the last week I've gone to two college football games, a launch party, and a centennial celebration. Last Saturday was my alma mater's, Oklahoma State, season opener against Lousiana. We won 61-34, what great way to start the season. Sunday my church celebrated the launch of our television show. We … Continue reading Catching Up

Back in the Cow Business

My dad called me last week and told me to get ready because he had just place an order for cows. I reminded him of what happen last time we had cows, then proceeded to ask a lot of questions. I like cows. All the time I was growing up we had cows. It's what … Continue reading Back in the Cow Business
