First and formost, today is March 1 which is Chris’s birthday.  Today Chris turns 23 years old.  I remember the day he was born just as if it were yesterday – born on his due date, born on a Sunday, touched by God before he ever left the womb, with God’s “finger prints” on his [...]

After reading my blog on “Fit for Purpose” (aka TP Discussion #1), Decy recanted a story that just happened recently at her salon.  Seems she went to use the restroom at her salon.  As she was trying to recover a bit of toilet paper, something wasn’t right.  The TP wouldn’t come off the roll right [...]

Living in a foreign country – multiple countries, many years – introduces a person to many new and different things.  People need to be open minded and careful not to prematurely draw conclusions or to judge a situation from their home country perspective.  Refer to below case in point.
In the USA when people use the [...]

Ahhhh … the joys of having a shortened week.  This Friday is a holiday here in Indonesia – it the Birthday of the Prophet Muhammad.  It is also payday weekend.  Thus, there should be lots going on this weekend – although I will probably not do too much.  First, I will try to take advantage [...]

Not sure what happened to the last hour.  I was up bright and early (315am).  Showered.  Shaved.  Got dressed.  Read Alex’s and Daniel’s blog … made a brief comment.  NOW – it is already 504am …. and I need to eat breakfast before going to work.
Had a great Sunday – yahoo.  Slept in a bit.  [...]

First and foremost, barring anything unforeseen, Decy is now just hours away from having her braces removed.  After both of us having worked very hard on Thursday and my not getting home until ~9pm (again) … we were having dinner together.  At one point I paused, looked at Decy and said “”16 more hours” … [...]

Don’t time to write today as I spent my whole “pre-work morning” reading and viewing the latest posting on Diary of Daniel.  If you haven’t been there in the last day or two …. its a must see - except for perhaps the video clip of the old bald man trying to read a book.
Decy’s down [...]

So last night Decy and I are eating dinner (about 9pm) just the two of us as Nathasya had already eaten and gotten ready for bed.  Suddenly she looks up and says “2 more days.”  It didn’t take me long, even in my very tired state to know that she was talking about the time [...]

As one can surmise from the blog title, it has been raining here in Jakarta.  We are now in the peak of the rainy season and the downpours can be quite severe.  Thankfully, this year we have not had the massive flooding like some years past.  Nevertheless, a strong solid rain can snarl traffic for [...]

Sorry for the lapse in blogging (again).  I had tried blogging last Friday but for some reason the site was down or not accessible.  Not really sure which.  Anyway – that’s life ….
Decy went to the orthodontist last Friday and had the impressions made for her retainer.  As I understand it, her braces come off [...]
