I forgot to mention that we got a Wii recently. Both Julie and I are suffering from Wii Arm, a condition similar to Nintendo Thumb, only much more painful. I try to get in a good tennis match and a couple rounds of boxing each morning. We are excited to get the Wii Fit and make our virtual selves the envy of all the Miis everywhere.
I also wanted to point out the cool little ESPN thing to the left. It displays what is going on in the life of Michigan State football. They are having a pretty good year as it turns out. I am not holding my breath for any kind of national title, but they should get into a pretty good bowl game.

New things
In the small chance that anyone still checks this blog out, here is what is going on in my life lately.
1. I started running back in August. I had quit during college because my knees hurt, but so far they are doing well. I ran my first ever official 5K in September. I usually run 3-4 times a week for 2-3 miles. My longest so far has been 4. I am very upset that cold weather is upon us as this will likely cut into my running schedule. Feel free to send me an elliptical machine.
2. My job as a foster care case manager continues to go well. The program is still growing at a somewhat alarming pace. Not that we have a ton of kids, but we are kind of bursting at the seams and continue to add more kids. I have 15 on my case load right now and will likely see number 16 arriving next week.
3. I am addicted to Dave Ramsey. For those of you who don't know, he is a financial advisor with a call in radio show. You can also download his podcast from Zune or Itunes. I am very gun-ho about getting our debts and house paid off. Julie is still unsure that this is possible, but with a few less video games a pairs of shoes I am sure we can do it.
4. I don't blog anymore. Fairly obvious to those who read my blogs.
