The annual Michigan vs. Ohio State match up happens again tomorrow. Once again, Michigan is given very little chance to win. Michigan can make its season tomorrow, or, regardless of the bowl result, have a slightly disappointing one. I just hope our offense has the ball with a chance to win late.
Kelley and I have been doing awesome in our fitness routine lately - I am nearly in the best shape of my life, or at least since I was 16. We have been running outside in 60+ degree weather

Big news: I'll be going to the Air Force NCO Academy from January 4th until February 10th. It is at some AF National Guard base in Tennessee, around 6 hours from Augusta. I am not a fan of being away from Kelley and home for 6 weeks, but we knew this was coming eventually so why not get it over with.

I recently scored an 88.1 on my fitness test, a huge accomplishment considering I had never scored better than 79.5 before now. If I complete the 1.5 mile run 7 seconds faster and do

Michigan lost its first football game of the season today to its hated rival, Michigan State. That really stinks, but I knew Michigan was going to lose some games this year.

I won NCO of the Quarter for my squadron for the third quarter, 2010. I haven't done that since 2006, so that is pretty cool. I also weight the least that I have since near that same time. Good timing on that since my PT test is in a little over 2 weeks. Overall things are going well!

Seems like out situation is constantly changing. Not always in bad ways, not even close, but in unexpected ways many times. Kelley has decided not to pursue her Masters degree after all. 3 years of misery is not her idea of a good time and I agree. We started a bowling league last night after 1 year off and I did terribly, but Kelley did well. I have a new computer on the way and I pretty stoked about it. I start teaching my first class all by myself in 2 weeks. Work is hectic, but not too bad.

I have high expectations from pursuing a graduate degree. I hope that it will provide me with knowledge to understand clearly how international business began and where it is going. I believe that after gaining this knowledge, I can play a more active role in my current position as well as make me increasingly marketable for the future. I am not certain as to what opportunities this degree will open, but I hope to one day be a manager.

My wonderful mother called me this afternoon and told me the 2009 Rose Bowl was airing on the Big Ten Network. She wanted to give me an opportunity to watch the Buckeyes beat Oregon one more time. I enjoyed the game. I found myself cheering when we scored as if I was watching the game live. I found it comforting to know that we win.

Over the past few weeks, I have struggled in many areas of my life. It is as if I have become obsessed with making the right choice with everything that I do.

Life is too short to not enjoy it. As my spiritual grandmother likes to say, "Be happy where you're at while you're on your way to where you're going". I love it! Now, if I could only just implement it into my every day life.

There are five necessary things in life I heard someone say: food, water, shelter, sleep, and love. I am not sure if you agree with that list, but right now the one that sticks out to me is SLEEP. I am not getting enough sleep on a consistent basis. I have the pers

Wow, June was an interesting month. I started back to work after a 4 week layoff at the end of May, so getting back into the groove at work took much of June. It was also super hot here in Augusta for pretty much the whole month. We saw a couple good movies - The A-Team (super awesome) and Toy Story 3 (good). We went to Atlanta to see the Tigers come to town and lose on a bad call in the 9th inning. The umpire even admitted as much after the game.

I went to Denver for a class at t

I find myself right now questioning how I spend my time. Every day we must make many decisions. We make more choices than we even realize. I am evaluating my life and taking out things that do nothing but suck precious time away. Life is too short and we must use it to the fullest. I am so happy and blessed, I must do all that I can to stay focused on things that I value. Wish me luck!

Ever notice how sometimes you find yourself in a place that just a few years ago you could have never predicted it? That is what I find myself in these days. Kelley and I get up on weekday mornings at 4:30 and start working out by 5, usually for an hour. On the weekends we "sleep in" until 6. We now try to eat organic food as much as possible and use more Earth friendly cleaning supplies and stuff. Never would have seen myself like this, but I am more fit and healthy than I have been in at least
