Apple pie and coffee
I never eat desert, but nothing beats pie in the morning with deep black coffee. Our good friends Kim and Dan, with all 5 kids in tow, dropped a ton of food off for our family yesterday out of mercy for our month of being beleaguered by flu. I was out taking the kids fishing to give jen some rest when they got there, but enjoyed their visit vicariously via a sweet mixture of apples, butter, and...

Jen stays precisely the same - bad - and for bonus points has picked up an ear infection now too. At this stage it’s so dreamlike I...

Hard Times
The last few weeks have been some of the toughest I’ve had to deal with as a family guy. The response from people, both business and personal relationships, has been fascinating to witness: people tend to fall into two extremes, very understanding or very concerned with how my situation affects them.
