Just pluggin’ away. Been busy at work lately, busier than normal, but it’s a good thing. I haven’t had much time to drift and blog stuff.
12 weeks to go for our baby! I can’t wait for that, either!!!

Today marks my dad’s 10 year anniversary of receiving his new heart! With what happened today in Greece (my uncle passing), I almost overlooked this feat of science, nature, and the heavens. I feel horrible for not congratulating my mom and dad for this remarkable accomplishment! My dad is 72 years old. He received a 25ish year old hear 10 years ago.
We were all much different 10 years ago. I was only halfway through school (Bachelor’s), went to California for Spring Break with my friend, Sean, regardless of my dad’s surgery. My parents told me I should go. I didn’t even think it was a big deal then. Looking back, I should have stayed home. We live and we learn. Now, I’m blessed to be here with my dad. Sharing in the joys of life, marriage, and soon, fatherhood. My dad will get to be a grandpa. He’s waited all these years. I can’t wait to give him that.

I was a hacker back in the day, to an extent, with the whole modem/bbs thing. These kids these days. They are hackers because they write: haxors? Puh-leeze.

Today is a very sad day. My Uncle John, in Greece, passed away today.
He’s in the middle of this picture. This look he has on his face is the epitome of his demeanor. Always relaxed. Always happy. He was a very caring man. God Bless him and his entire family.
Last Summer, his daughter, Georgia (Gogoula) passed away from an aneurism.
