Finally Home

Finally walked in the door and kicked off the good shoes. Trying to relax and get the kids for bed....I'm wiped.

Homeward Bound....

Sitting in O'Hare waiting for my flight home. The earlier flight was delayed, but the doors closed on it about five minutes before we landed. Oh well.....

I'll post the few good pics I got on the trip, just glad to be going home...

Road Tripping Again - KC

Well, I'm working out of a conference room in KC for the next few days. Nothing exciting to talk about, but did get a good pick of Midway (for the plane geek in me...) while lining up to land at O'Hare.

Ripped a hole in the side of my pants, so I had to run downstairs and swap pairs. That's been the most excitement so far. Looks like my Thursday morning meeting is cancelled, so I'm going to try to fly home early (that is, if United will let me). More later....

Another Bad Season And Those Tickets Are Mine!

Last summer I was ranked #932 on the Bears Season Ticket Waiting List. A combination of a bad season and tepid economy has now skyrocketed me to the high 200's. I'm guessing the way the season is looking right now, I'll have to make a significant payment in a year or two... :-)

Tyler Update

Tonight, DeAnn and I put Tyler into a long term facility in Indianapolis which will hopefully help him with his behaviors. This place is relatively new, but the founding firm has been in place for a while. A relative calm has fallen over the house tonight, no screaming, no fights, no tantrums. It's hard to enjoy the peace when you know your son is falling asleep in a new bed some 100+ miles away.

I don't know what the future will bring for Tyler or us. This facility will keep him a minimum of six months, and they seem more together than other facilities we have been through in the past. More as events occur....
