What can we handle?


Waiting patiently for the hospital to call my parents to schedule my dad's bone scan. He is extra grumpy to work with these days. Mom is frustrated. I am frustrated.

An awesome video.

North Carolina..family time

North Carolina was pretty perfect. The weather was awesome, with the exception of Tropical Storm Colin looming around. We went to the zoo, played in the pool, watched some baseball and relaxed. The Blue Ridge Parkway has miles of heavenly beauty to behold. Driving through the dense forest with the window rolled down, smelling the blooming flowers, is a way I could spend every day. Brett had fun with Cameron, a cousin he had lost touch with. Riding their bikes down the greenway dodging walkers and turtles, was a fun way to spend a couple of hours. Jeff and Brett really enjoyed the beach. They rode the currents and waves waiting for the "big one" to come again. I could get used to a place like that 24/7. Just sayin...

What are your feelings about marriage?

What are your feelings about marriage? Our society has made it out as a trivial matter. Divorce is prevalent all around us. How can we support the sanctity of the family?
Wikipedia defines marriage as:
 Marriage, also called matrimony or wedlock, is a socially or ritually recognized union or legal contract between spouses that establishes rights and obligations between them, between them and their children, and between them and their in-laws,[1] as well as society in general. The definition of marriage varies according to different cultures, but it is principally an institution in which interpersonal relationships, usually sexual, are acknowledged. In some cultures, marriage is recommended or considered to be compulsory before pursuing any sexual activity. When defined broadly, marriage is considered a cultural universal.
