Day 49: Orient

I still can’t find the Little Wilson trailhead…. My plan for today was to take a short hike as a way of unwinding after a busy couple of days. I was free at 1pm, but instead of jumping in my … Continue reading

Day 48: Appreciate

Early on in this process (all of 48 days ago), I wrote that I was going to keep these blog posts as short–and as simple–as I could. Today is certainly one of those days when I need to remind myself … Continue reading

Atlanta is expecting another “winter event.” After not preparing for the last bit of snow that came through, this time it seems we’re going to overreact. Schools were shut down today, even though it stayed above freezing all day, and … Continue reading

Day 41: Thin

Ok, I’m not quite as bad as George Costanza, but let’s just say that I’ve been known to tote a fat wallet…minus the cash, that is. I’ve noticed it on long car rides before–I’ll have to take my wallet out … Continue reading

Day 40: Follow

I’m going to keep this entry pretty short–we’re still recovering from our 24-hour birthday party extravaganza around here. Leading is easy for me. Following, though–that can be more challenging. I often put myself in positions where I can take on … Continue reading
