New Neva Video: Things I’ll Never Be

Except for my Twitter feed, I haven’t been posting on my blog hardly at all over the past couple months because I’ve been moving and crazy busy at work. And I am way behind posting photos to my flickr account because I haven’t had the time to edit the shuttle launch clips. Ack. I was …

Unexpected Restfulness in Moving

I’ve lived a great stretch of my adult life in one room studio apartments, so when I stepped up last year and moved to a one-bedroom apartment I didn’t think twice about putting my home office in my bedroom. The novelty was having the option to have a front room for entertaining. Of course I …

Dealing w/ Past Voices

Last night I got the following email from a dear friend: What would you do if (name-redacted) sent you a friend request on FB? Would you confirm or ignore . . . I still regularly think about (different name-redacted) – almost daily. I’m worried I can never get past her. And yes, I just got …

Got this postcard and mostly ignored it until I talked to my account. He said that it was time to buy. That got me started looking. Alas, when I went to the development advertised in the postcard there was the model building and then one small group of homes on the opposite end of the …

Good bye old cube

Found out Wednesday afternoon that our group was being relocated to different offices and that we needed to have our stuff moved by Friday. Before the end of day, Wednesday, I had everything packed and ready to go. Thank God, I’d never gotten too crazy with the books or desk/cube toys. Also, good thing I …

Design by God – God by Design

One of the greatest benefits of living in this age is the possibility of going directly to the first sources when one wants to read or listen to the thoughts of any particular speaker or thinker. Back in my Fuller days in the early 80s one of my favorite professors, Colin Brown, commented that then …

The Hidden Cost of Two Rooms

I’ve lived in studio apartments most of my adult life. And except for one girlfriend who equated such a small place with a “low earning potential,” my studios have served me well. I was very comfortable living in such a utilitarian manner. I’m sure there was some part of this that was a nostalgic throw-back …
