My apologies for the few the read my posts. Since my last post, I've had a broad spectrum of events occur that have taken my time away from my bloggly scribblings.
1. Met Joe Montana, Butch Davis, and Jim McMahon.
2. Got offered a job as a strength coach for a major Division I program.
3. Watched the Red Sox go 9 games up in the AL East.
4. Contributed to an awesome basketball project.
5. Lost my grandmother to Alzheimer's
6. Saw what cancer looks like....
The last two were both reminders of how important the people in our lives are. Even the little relationships can last a lifetime. My grandmother, who lived one of the most difficult lives imaginable (divorce, losing a child), finally passed from Alzheimer's. It was one of the most difficult things to bear as with her passing, it felt like a piece of my childhood went with her. The one thing I remember the most, she made the BEST oatmeal-raisin cookies EVER!
Witnessing cancer was also a life-changing experience. My girlfriend had a friend, 32 years-old, die of cancer. I never knew her, but was able to meet her for the first time only days before her death. I couldn't help think about how important the time that we have means not only to ourselves but, the people around us. For that meeting, however brief, changed my life and I will always remember Susie Thompson.
A lot of big things are around the corner. I'll keep everyone posted very soon as many exciting times are ahead that may have a direct impact on you all.
Take care!
