About
This blog is really written for my mom. She likes my stories. That’s not to say that it’s only for her. I write it to to share with anyone those personal observations and experiences that together make-up this journey of a life for me and the GEE crew. If you’ve stumbled upon this by accident, welcome. If my mother sent you here, I hope she didn’t make more of the talent than what you find. She can’t help herself, you know. 
If I’ve shared this with you personally, it’s my gift to you and with the way things roll for me and the GEE crew, it may be all I have to offer.
