I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving! This is kind of a bitter sweet one for me. This will be the first since my little buddy Henry passed away. I still hurt even after two weeks without him. He was such a loyal little guy.

So, I just wanted to tell everyone to enjoy their Thanksgiving. We have a lot to be thankful for. I know most importantly I am thankful for my Lord and Savior, my family and friends. So enjoy the day be thankful. Oh and by the way, I am in the last week of classes. So next weekend I am updating the website. No major revisions just minor ones. So stop by in a couple of weeks and check it out.

My loyal faithful dog Henry died today at approximately 11:00 AM. Henry had been in pain for the last six months, so today he is no longer in pain. I will greatly miss him he has been with me almost 15 years. His birthday would have been December 8.

Cannot wait for this date. It will be the date I am finally finished with my first semester back. I have neglected a lot of things the last few months between work and school. But, it has paid off. I have A’s in both classes so far. Although, I think my ultimate score in English Composition 2 will be a B. Well back to reading about Nuclear Power in Environmental Science.

I know it has been a long time since I updated my website. But, hopefully by the end of the month I can get to it. I just have been very busy with work and classes. Hopefully, next weekend I will finally have some time. I have a four day weekend next week. Hope everyone is doing great!

Well done Statefarm. As a customer I like to say this was done with class.

Don’t want to go to work today. Long week ahead….

What’s been happening lately? Well, a lot. I have been busy at work and college. I am only taking two classes this semester. But, it feels like a second job. I am constantly doing something for my English class and trying to squeeze in my Environmental Science class. I was going to take three classes. But, when I saw the workload for my conversational sociology class I had to drop it. There was no way I could have kept up in that class.

Well I hope everyone is doing great and enjoying there Labor Day. I am off and working on class stuff. I also took tomorrow off to finish my class stuff and to go to for an ultrasound tomorrow. Not looking forward to going back to work on Wednesday.

Been up to reading and studying my Bible more and more each day. Just but the Word of the Promise (NKJV) read aloud which is a great way to supplement learning the Bible.

Hope everyone is doing great. Been working a lot lately and studying. Classes are going to start for me on August 22, 2011. I think. Let’s hope so. Depends on funding from work.

With the launch of the last shuttle today it is an end to an era. I remember when I was a teenager seeing them test the Enterprise and then launching all the shuttles. I never got to go see a shuttle launch in person. However, from Tampa on many occasion I could step outside and it was just a few minutes and I could see the launch from where I lived. I can truly say I lived and witnessed the whole shuttle era. Through all the high points and the two low points. I disagree with the decision to discontinue the shuttle program. But, what is done is done. I look forward to witnessing the birth of the next program.
