Running like a Deere

We are now the proud owners of a John Deere lawn tractor.

John Deere Lawn Tractor

This is no ordinary lawn tractor. First off, it’s a genuine green and yellow John Deere lawn tractor. It’s the LA140 which has a Exclusive 23-hp John Deere V-Twin engine; solid one-piece frame is constructed of 12-gauge steel; two-pedal automatic transmission control for easy speed and direction changes, 48-inch (3-blade) mower deck featuring The Edgeâ„¢ Cutting System provides superior grass lift for a precise, level cut; Comfort Plus Series includes sporty styling, a soft grip steering wheel and deluxe, lumbar adjustable seat for optimum comfort; and a cup holder cradles your favorite beverage…that means BEER holder! And if all that isn’t enough to impress you, this lawn tractor has options for 57 attachments!!! You can attach a snow plow, aerator, sprayer, spreader or utility trailer just to name a few options. Man this is going to be fun – and expensive. Let me know if you need your lawn mowed. I’m not the cheapest, but the tractor looks good while your lawn is being cleaned up. Yee haw!!

Missing Blizzard

Image
Today we put our long time cat down to rest. Blizzard was 16 years old, 85ish in cat years. While he’s had a good long life, beginning with us when he was only a few weeks old, it still seems like we should have more time with him. Stephanie and I found an ad for a white kitten with blue eyes that was just a couple weeks old on the bulletin board at our apartment complex where we first lived together. When we visited his owner at the time, he seem anxious and ready to leave the environment. Their young toddler thought that the kitten was more of a baseball than a kitten. Steph reached to pick him up and he scaled up her shirt like a fugitive desperate for freedom. We took him home and started a new life with him. Blizzard was a fiesty cat who was very independent.

He was a very affectionate cat who developed a routine of laying around the

When I Reach For You

Sometimes when I give you an unexpected kiss. A nuzzle on the neck – or a pat – on whatever interesting place is handy – you ask, “What was that for?” Not so much from doubt, but to hear me say “I love you” one more time. A habit?

My “I love you” is deeper now – It has shades, tones, textures, patterns it could not have known before. When I reach for you. It is with the deep sense of the goodness of the years With you My Love. Author: Kaye Gibbons Date: Unknown, circa 1990 This poem from my Aunt is very insightful, touching and helpful. Each time I read it is like the first time I did. Knowing someone personally who has written something like this biases you, I’m sure. But even without knowing this woman (one of my fav

Time for change

Image
It’s time for a change in my life. I have just left Rackspace after about 2 1/2 years and am in the process of orienting myself for the next adventure. It’s an interesting process outlining new goals and life priorities. So far, some ideas under consideration are 1) create a new startup business, 2) change industries completely, 3) leave the area and 4) maintain the current course in San Antonio and technology.Where ever I go from here, I am looking forward to it.
