I was very surprised I didn’t know when he was going to pop the question. And now we all three sisters have been to be getting married. It was Megan first and then it was me. And now Lindsay. We have been off on our posting schedule for one month today. Apparently getting engaged during … [Read more…]
Boy do we miss going to the movies. Late last year, Leah and I discovered $5 movie night at the movie theater closest to her house on Tuesday nights. Every week (pre-COVID), I would drive from Kansas City to Omaha from Tuesday-Thursday to work with Leah. This was perfect. I looked up movie times before … [Read more…]

She brought me both physical photos that she had accumulated over the years as well as dozens of pictures on her phone. It quickly … [Read more…]
A few months back, I was Leah’s transportation to classes she was taking each week in Omaha. The drive would take about 30 minutes each way. Oh how I enjoyed our designated car time. This was a confined space where just the two of us could catch up on the latest guests that Ellen had … [Read more…]
I want to talk about how I been doing with the virus and the new things with it and how I take care of my love Mark with it. It is a little bit confusing and hard right now to know about the TV Shows that I love to watch like Ellen and The Kelly … [Read more…]
