Catching Up On The Weekend

Haven't been on top of my blogging game the last couple of days. Maybe it's just spring fever. It seems I've been one step behind this weekend.

I missed a chance for block walking with Bernie Scheffler on Sunday. I'm seriously bummed because I really believe that Bernie is the kind of candidate we need in Fort Worth: a young, energetic business person who is not an "establishment politician."

I also missed the PrairieFest because I was busy working with my daughter on her history project. I just thought my days of homework were over.

I missed a nice read from the Stash Dauber on his parents. But do you really miss anything on the Internet?
