About this Blog

My brother says I'll never get past it. You know, wrong side of the tracks, all my friends came from money, I'll never feel like I'm enough,etc. The upside? I'm an over-achiever. Grew up in Boise, on Longmont Street. Went to Garfield, East Jr. High and Boise High. Left for college, and never looked back...but ahh, the memories...young love, good friends, Lucky Peak, Boise River, the parks, McCall,Baseball games, Church dances...cool summer nights, did I mention young love?

Life or Something Like it

Evolving

This is about me evolving...or at least trying to evolve by understanding the what and why fors of my life's experiences and every other thing I've ever read, observed, listened to or in some other way internalized and digested...whether I wanted to or not!

My Philosophy

So it goes like it goes, like the river flows And time it rolls right on And maybe what's good gets a little bit better And maybe what's bad gets gone

Thelma

or Thel as David would say. Today is my mom's birthday. She would be 86 years old. She died at age 65. Twenty-one years have come and gone without her laughter. She had the greatest laugh.

Mom was definitely driven by emotion. She lived and breathed with her heart....no wonder it wore out so quickly.

She loved us and wanted us to have a better life than she had...I think she would be pleased.

She was my first experience with life and my first experience with death. I am my mother's daughter!

Happy Birthday Mom
