Gary’s shared links What did you do in 2010 that you’d never done before?
Adopted a 3am wake-up call as my new routine. Became a government employee.
Did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I don’t think I made any last year. This year, I want to waste less, give more to [...]

Like a Phoenix (or like Australia), this blog has come back from the the ashes before. And it will again.
But not today.
Until I get back to blogging regularly again, you can find me on facebook (if you haven’t already). I’m

I haven’t posted much in a while.
You see, ever since I moved in with my grandmom, I was blogging monthly updates about my life with her. When she passed away, it just didn’t seem right to blog about anything else until I wrote one final recap of her life and my life with [...]

My grandmother passed away peacefully last Wednesday evening at the rehabilitation facility in Voorhees where she had been staying temporarily for several weeks.
She was 90, and she lived a full and happy life. It wasn’t unexpected, and it was probably for the best. But it’s still sad.
I have pages and pages of things [...]

3,000 miles later, we’ve arrived safely at my friend, Dan’s, apartment in San Diego.
Once again, I’m beat. But I’ll post more as soon as I can.

The trip continues to go great!
We’re still in Las Vegas, and tonight will be the final leg–the drive to San Diego.
We hit the casinos last night, and I doubled my money! $5 became $10. lol
I haven’t been online much, but that will turn around within the next few days.
But so [...]

It’s quarter after 1 in the morning here in the Mountain Time Zone. I’m just about ready to head off to sleep.
So far, the road trip is going well.
I’ll write more later. Now, it’s bedtime.

Better late than never?
Before I head off on my next trip, I thought I should finally find time to post the pictures from my last trip.
From July 27-30, I was in Chicago.
I mainly went to see a baseball game. But it was my first time in the Windy City, so I did all [...]

Stratford, NJ, USA
Last Wednesday, August 20, marked 1 year and 9 months since I began taking care of my grandmom. But, due to the trifecta of laziness, the Olympics, and another hospitalization, I’m late in posting my monthly recap. And, unfortunately, the fact that this is the most negative post I’ve written in a while [...]

VOORHEES, NJ, USA
So, we’re back in the hospital.
My grandmom fell out of bed sometime early Saturday morning, between 5am and 11am. Unfortunately, I didn’t hear her fall immediately, so she had to lay there for a little while. I know there wasn’t really much I could do, short of moving my bed into her [...]
