HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATIE!

You are incredibly coordinated, efficient, and great at everything you attempt. I also think you make a really cool mother.

I thought this website was kinda cool. You can enter in your recipes and it will give you the nutritional information. This is the nutritional information for my favorite cookies. Whenever I make them I eat approximately 200 in one sitting so I started wondering how many calories they were. So I entered it into this website and Voila'. I now know I have consumed roughly 4,571 calories in the past two hours. Yay me.

Speaking More of Music...

...and Death.

I just got word that one of my favorite uncles passed away this morning. He and my Dad are only a couple of years apart. As I morn I'm listening to the Wilco radio on Pandora. A bunch of really good songs are playing that I haven't heard forever. Remember the Lemonheads, Dire Straits, Pixies...

A few years ago I was hunting with my uncle and dad. My uncle spotted a dear, turned to shot but my dad was blocking his shot, so he yells "duck!". He totally took the shot. There are so many stories, buckets and buckets, of similar situations. Wayne has gone on to be with his beloved wife. She died in a horrible car crash 6 years ago.
The car caught on fire. My uncle had to watch.
I'm really going to miss him.
