Another Try

I am going to try and be a little better about posting here.  I think I want to make this a place where I can really express myself.  But since I work for a living I'm trying to figure out how to do that.  I'll probably have to make the blog private or remove my real name from it so it isn't something that will show up on future employers searches.

As a start though, I am adding a widget for the countdown to Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins.  I cannot wait to get the book and just enjoy every word.  One day I might go down the path of explaining why this book resonates so well with me.  But for now, if you haven't read "Hunger Games," the first book, or "Catching Fire," the second book, you should give it a try.  You all should give it a try.

Dinner

Krystal burgers and a smoothie (to balance out the burgers). Krystal burgers are like White Castles (sliders), but better.

Tennessee Out of My Hotel Window

This is by the airport, so it isn't the finest Tennessee has to offer.

This is part 2. The first flight was to Atlanta in a bigger plane.

Vacation - Day 1 - Watching Mike Play Ball

Mike hurt his knee on his triple right before this, so he had someone run home for him.

Lila Video

I really wanted to give everyone a little view of how Lila was doing. I think she looks better than I have seen her in years.
