Not since the great meatloaf of ’08 [Britt cooked me up an amazing meatloaf just before I left for Paris] have I eaten such a meal. Starting in late October my eating habits changed dramatically. My calorie intake shrunk to only 1500 a day and the majority of my food came from boxes. I rarely [...]
I arrived in Edinburgh around 7pm. It was already getting dark so picture taking opportunities were slim. The rest of the day was little more than eating, chatting and going to bed. I couldn’t believe how exhausted I had finally become. By 4am I was ready to sleep. In fact, I couldn’t even keep my [...]
Life is not always what it seems. Many times the thing we rest so steadily on are shaken at the very foundation. Things we thought would last forever, sadly, end prematurely. But life is a journey. It is a road that we walk with God at our side. I am reminded of that poem “Footprints”. [...]
It is hard to believe that I didn’t take one picture today. I just didn’t have the time or the energy. Because of getting to bed so late last night/this morning I didn’t even wake until about 12:30pm. After that I had some laundry to do and some basic errands to run. By the time [...]
Day 7 in Paris has been one busy day. Busy enough that I now have two bruises on my feet; one on each foot just below the toes where apparently I put most of my weight on the downstep. I feel like such a tenderfoot today. The day began as normal. I woke up, went [...]
Today was a bit of a slow day. I didn’t wake up until late thanks to this new method of sleeping I found called “pulling the blanket over your head to create a dark setting.” It works like a charm. I suggest everyone try it! When I finally did wake up though I shared a [...]
Yesterday, for the most part, was quite a treat. It began by being able to sleep in some. Now, I am not known for sleeping in but I guess when you work 19 and 20 hours a day like I have been doing lately, sleeping become quite a gift. So yesterday began right around 11am. [...]
It is 10:31pm here and I am sitting at my computer casually and occasionally chatting with friends who are half a world away and lazing around in the late afternoon sun no doubt. And yet all I feel is this sort of sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach. “I should go out. Maybe [...]
Yesterday was far from glamorous. I was beginning to buy my own Paris hype. But yesterday brought everything back into perspective. I am truly here to work. MinuteFix is my priority in life, professionally speaking, and I am here not just to enjoy Paris but also to sit across from Diego and build this company [...]
