I posted this on Facebook and got a big response. I figured that I would share it here for those of you that don't follow me on Facebook.

Lizze and I will be married for 10 years this September. Over the years her health has gone downhill and she spends most of her time in tremendous amounts of pain and misery. With Elliott and Emmett at their grandparents, I wanted to seize the moment. I managed to drag Lizze out to Stadium Park for a very short hike. We were accompanied by Gavin, who was quite excited to go. Basically, this was a stroll on the track and a brief excursion down a wooded path to an abandoned guard station. Lizze has been wanting to take pictures of the old guard house that used to be part of the Timken Family estate. I have to admit that I had an agenda or reason for this little trip. That…
Today was a very artsy kinda day. Everyone was drawing, creating and having fun. Emmett really surprised me with his work today. He drew Phineas and Ferb along with Perry the Platypus, from memory. For a kid that just turned 5 years old, I think this is pretty friggin good. Of course, I could be bias but I still think these are pretty awesome.

Sleep and I have a rather love/hate relationship. I love to sleep and sleep hates letting me. Lizze and I are down two kids tonight and I should be taking full advantage of this time to rest. Unfortunately, my brain is working and simply won't stop thinking about everything I have to worry about. How messed up is that? I get a break but I can't get the rest I need to be better able to parent my kids when they get home, inevitably overstimulated. I've thought about just running into the wall, over and over again, until I'm unconscious. However, that would likely cause more problems than its worth. Plus, I'm not a huge fan of stupidity and that would be pretty stupid. Alright, I'm going to try one…
I wanted to share something that Gavin's been working on today. It's some kind of Star Wars inspired space ship. He's really proud of it and I'm happy to share it with the world.

Lizze's parents took the two E's for the night and most of tomorrow. The boys are so excited. Gavin is enjoying being the center of attention while they're gone. Not sure what, if anything we are going to be doing tonight but it will likely be a quiet evening, filled with lots of sleep. This site is managed almost exclusively via WordPress for Android.

If someone asked me to describe Gavin today, using only one word, it would be strange. Gavin is acting strange. I don't know of how else to describe him. He just seems off. I've had to address some odd behavioral issues with him today as well. He's sorta either loitering or he'll be literally following people around. If you aren't aware he's there and you stop walking, he runs right into you. Other times he just stands there watching you... I've sent him upstairs to rest and read on his tablet for a bit because everyone needs a little break from the strangeness today. Just so I'm clear. He's not actually doing anything wrong. The problem is that he's making people uncomfortable and Elliott's used the word creepy to describe…
