Three Months Today

Again too much time has passed since my last glog. I could make excuses, but having an old friend in town made me realize that part of the reason I've not glogged is that life is so damn good I feel I may not need to appreciate this. After serious ramblings about Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, it seems all the more important to continue glogging.

Reasons to continue glogging:

• Keep writing skills fresh. I am increasingly using the vocabulary of a politician (7th grade level) rather than of a college graduate.
• Keep the appreciation train rolling. I've work to do to move to the Esteem level so it's time to start filling in the gaps.
• Stay ambitious and motivated. Complacency is a killer.
• My new iPhone.

I am grateful for:

• John's hole being healed... that was awesome even though it was 6 weeks ago.
• Kristina making it to 3 months of breastfeeding. What an astonishing, incredible, fantastic achievement.
• John being such a happy baby - all credit to Kristina.
• John making it 3 months
• Having a great friend in Michelle and the prospect of a lifelong relationship between our families.
• Showers
• All the firsts
• Figuring out how to mod_rewrite my .htaccess file for myfamily.org
• Changing my 'screenname' to rappin' reggie
• Helping a new friend find herself
• having so many friends with whom to share ideas (ok - 3, but that's a lot in my book).
• Christmas
• Crostini di Polenta con funghi in salsa di vino bianco e burro. Buon appetito
• Vino, vino, vino
