Happy Birthday, Dad!
Happy Birthday!
It’s A Day Late, But…
Happy Anniversary, Mom and Dad! I couldn’t have had better parents, and I know that some of the best parts of my personality come from both of them. I can’t even imagine what 32 years is like to look back on in a relationship (and with my memory, I’ll just have to trust Sara to fill me in).
As a side note, it’s funny to me that the same clock is still sitting on that mantle. Wait, unless it’s on the other fireplace mantle. See: terrible memory.
New Dryer
My dad and Marc came up from Atlanta today to deliver a new old dryer to Sara and I. Our dryer died about a month ago, and it’s been pretty annoying to take the laundry to the apartment wash room.
Cooking With Sara
I had a feast for my Valentine’s dinner. It was a shrimp barbecue slow cooker recipe from the new cookbook that Amanda and Evan gave me for Christmas (thanks!), and I made some polenta and boiled artichokes to go along.
Everything was great except the shrimp was way overcooked, so I’ll have to adjust the heat settings for our slow cooker. I’ve never used it before, but hey, six months after I got it, it was time to open the box.
Need Some Coffee
Much like Cozmo, I need some coffee. Got a lot going on.
Another Weekend, More Bad Weather?
It looks like we might be getting more rain/ice/sleet/snow this weekend. I’m hoping to go back to Georgia to see my family, but might have to postpone the trip.
In other news, I’m working on a little project that I’m not letting anyone know about just yet. It’s nothing big, but I’ve been meaning to do this for a few years now, so I’m glad I’m working on it.
Been Busy
It’s been an interesting week or so. I’ve been working on designing a website with about a week turnaround. That’s the design up there. It needs a lot of work but I’m not worrying about it too much since I don’t have much of a timeline to work on it.
I will be driving down to Jacksonville Beach this weekend to attend my Uncle Terry’s memorial service. I’ll probably spend about 14 hours in the car. It’ll be good to see my family and to hear stories about him.
If I didn’t have so much to do, I’d write more. There’ll be another entry tomorrow seeing as it’s been 6 days since the last.
Tabouli
I made some tabouli and falafel. I found some really cheap boxes of mix and recipe to bake it instead of frying it. Lunch has been great lately.
Cameras
A couple years ago my uncle Ed gave me a worn out cardboard box full of old cameras, flashes, and film. I’ve gone through them a little and looked up some info, but have recently started to come up with some sort of idea for putting together a document with images of the cameras and other equipment and all of the relevant info I can find. It should be an interesting project to work on. First, though, I really want to build some sort of light box for taking photos.
Another Old One
Probably my favorite photo of my dad on his own.
