New Photo Collection "Kevin At Work"

I have never seen Kevin work so hard. In Phoenix he usually sits behind his desk and caters to my ever computer need but on the Central Coast I keep capturing him under desks, lifting boxes, trouble shooting many a computer,cleaning up trash, on the phone etc.

Today, I started this photo collection when he was done solving a problem and put his head on his hands......the rest of the pics were taken at other points during the day. Maybe tomorrow I'll video tape the sweat dripping from his brow.

Lastly, if you use this example can one determine that people in the field work harder than people in Phoenix? oooooohhhh, such a controversial question from Kim1Champ..........

Welcome, You've Got Mail!!!

15 Years ago today I went on the Internet for the first time. (Not totally true as I actually was on Prodigy once April 22, 1994-the date Richard Nixon died but thats another story) But 15 years ago today I started using the Internet. AOL was the service provider, it was painfully slow but I thought it was fast, I didn't know what a chat room was but I found one and in that chat room, that night, I "met" my future husband and father of my two girls.

Nobody really understood Internet dating, nobody even warned about it because it was before the phase of crazy Internet relationships on Jerry Springer, it was just new and people thought it was weird. The story that I began to tell was "We met at the airport"-which we did several months later, we will remember that date in December. Ten years passed and it became socially acceptable to say that you met on the Internet, everyone was intrigued. Now, meeting on the Internet is very normal and no longer "news".

In summary 15 years ago today I met my husband and I want to thank him for being a great husband and father. I Love you, David!!!!!

P.S. The Internet is really cool too ;)

Oh and as an after thought that is the day that Kim1Champ was born (My AOL Screen Name)

Sunset Date With Mom

Yesterday, I had told Sydney that I would take her to the beach and then I forgot about it. After dinner Sydney announced "And now, we go beach!" and after saying it several times I knew I needed to take her. So Mom and Brooke went back to the hotel and Sydney and I drove to the beach and had a blast. It was super cold but we ran on the beach, played in the sand, and went up on the lifeguard tower (which she didn't like). After 30 minutes I convinced her that we were cold and needed to go check on Grandma and Brooke. Good Times.

I've Been Busy Working

If you haven't heard from me in months or if I have made plans with you and haven't shown up or called, please know that I have been busy working. I have barely seen the girls or David but I have seen alot of Kevin and Jeff. The picture below depicts this sad state of affairs. I so desperately needed a quiet place to work that I sat on the floor in front of these doors. The doors are the mens and womens bathrooms. Yes, I sat on the floor for hours in front of the bathrooms. It was slightly uncomfortable for the guys when they went in to use the bathroom (They had to step over my legs) but it was the only place I could find that was relatively quiet.

Other things that I have neglected recently: *Paying Bills, *Getting a haircut, *Grocery shopping, *Doing laundry, *Getting a pedicure, *Calling back at least 50 people, *Going to Disneyland, *Seeing my family, *Seeing my friends, *Traveling to Phoenix, *Traveling everywhere else?

I hope to surface again post my trip to Alaska but it likely won't be till November :(

A Little Known Fact: SF Jeff Repairs Vacuum Cleaners

Last night at dinner the following conversation ensues:

Jeff: You know, I probably shouldn't admit this but....
Kim: Do Tell!!!!!

Jeff: I repair vacuum cleaners

Kevin: You what?

Jeff: I find vacuum cleaners and I repair them

Alex: Where do you find them?

Jeff: On the streets of San Francisco

Kim: And you repair them.....

Jeff: Yes, and then I put them back on the street with a sign that says "Works Great, Really Sucks"

Kim: Your kidding

Jeff: Well what am I going to do with a dozen vacuum cleaners

Alex: But you wouldn't have a dozen if you hadn't found them on the street

Kevin: And repaired them

Jeff: Once repaired, Somebody picks them up, somebody always picks them up

Kim: You do realize there is no way this isn't going on the blog?

Jeff: They are found objects, I mean, I don't look for them they just cross my path

Kim: You've repaired a dozen?

Jeff: Most of them just need belts or cleaned out

Alex: Do you repair anything else?

Jeff: Sometimes for example last week I bought an LCD TV and a Crock Pot at a tag sale

Kevin: What's a tag sale?

Jeff: A garage sale but

Alex: In San Francisco there are no garages so....

Jeff: It's just on the sidewalk, the LCD TV just had a broken power supply, I bought one for $30 bucks on ebay and fixed it but usually I stick to vacuum cleaners

Kim: Wow

Alex: I have never seen a vacuum cleaner left on the street

Jeff: Well I live near a college and in June they're everywhere
