Thought I would provide you all with a little update on the accident stuff. I will say that Progressive Insurance is doing a pretty good job so far. The agent I am dealing with, Chad, and I talked on Monday and he took my report on what happened. He told me that he would need…

Bicycle Meets Car (I’m OK)
Well today didn’t go as planned. I was finally able to head out on my daily bike ride at about 4pm. I was hoping for ma nice 17 mile ride like I do on Sundays. Everything was going well, there wasn’t much traffic on the road (the Superbowl was going to start shortly afterall), and…
Weekend of getting stuff done, seeing old friends, and being sick
I got another cold. I think I have been sick more in the last 2 months than not. I am sick of being stuffed up. Anyways life still has to go on. This weekend I got to see an old friend and get some stuff done around the house. The first is my VW. I…
Just a quick good day recap
Today was a good day. I drove my VW to school today to get some miles on it. It ran great. It sounded great. And the radio/amp setup was rocking! I got a lot done at work today. At least it felt that way. My co-worker and I are designing an online course to start…
My Girls Got Baptized Today
I was going to post today about my car, but I didn’t have enough oil to fill it up, and something more important happened today anyways. My girls got baptized at church this morning. For those of you that don’t know that means they made a public confession of THEIR faith (not their parent’s faith)…
Sledding, and the most interesting woman in the world
Last posting about that weekend (not this one). I meant to get it out earlier in the week, but it was my first week of classes so that didn’t happen. One of the other things my fmaily did while we were up north was go sledding. Often there is a large pile of snow in…
Girl Scout Cookies!
So it is that time of year when my 2 wonderful daughters sell girl scout cookies. They work so hard to sell cookies. They walk the neighborhood, the setup a table at our nearest major intersection, they do troop booths, and they talk to their teachers (both school and dance). This is all to sell…
Skiing today
Today I got to go skiing for the first time this season. I was up at Sunrise Ski Park outside Greer. I got there early as usual, and was able to get my new RFID ticket, and also get on the slopes right away once they opened. Here is a shot from the beginning of…
I got it out – and a visitor
We got the car out. After about an hour of work I got the car out. I had to do a bunch of digging out under the car and under the tires. I also had to use a screwdriver to knock ice out from under the tired (somewhat), and then I stuck boards under tires…
Meetings and Snow
Today was a boring day of meetings. But here is a picture of snow from where I am now: I may have underestimated how deep the snow was. Yes, the car is stuck. I tried low range 4×4 and even locking the differential, but just got tires to spin. I tried rocking it back and…
