About Me

My hometown in Baton Rouge, LA but I have come to think of San Antonio as my home now, after 8years here.This site will be used primarily to keep my boys and the the rest of my family informed of the events in my life while away from them. Friends and family are welcome to any of the blogs and I will try to keep the general postings available to the public for those out there who may just be interested to know more about me. Enjoy.

My Interests

Movies, outdoor adventures, exercise, swimming, traveling, music, anything new.

I'd like to meet:

Looking for friends that will always be around and respect each other enough to not judge; friends you can confide in about anything. I am looking for friends who will be there when it is important."When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares." --Henri Nouwen, Out of Solitude

Watching a friend fall.

UPDATE: Ok, I've had time to process things now.  I of course had to go back this morning to work the kiosk so I took a few minutes to think about it.  I also talked to a good friend about i...

Making the Burden Lighter

Wow! My problems were put into perspective this week.  Not that their importance was reduced any, just the impact seems lessoned.  This week both my boys ended up in trouble.  It seems ...

Heavy Burdens

There are times in life when the stress of responsibilities, the gloom of weather, the longing of desires all seem to conspire to drive you to your knees.  Times when even the cool, soft sheets t...

Life’s little mistakes?

... no such thing. In the age when we can see so much of so many people's lives we often start looking at our own and wondering where we went wrong.  We start thinking "If I had only..." and wish...

Why pray; God’s gonna do what He wants, right?

A friend posed this quandry to me the other night.  If God knows the beginning and the end and He knows what we are going to do, and there is nothing we can do to change his plans, what good does...

Would I change it?

I've been thinking lately about where I've come in life.  I have looked back at the opportunities I've had, the choices I've made and the things I've achieved.  I've wondered if there was an...

When you have everything...

There are few times in your life when you can look around you with unexpressable joy and say that you have everything you could ever ask for.  The peace and satisfaction with life that you experi...
