Stuff

There has been a lot of stuff going on. First of all, a few things: there has been 17 people that have worked for me. Thank you all! It has been an amazing run and there is soo much more to go. Good Luck to the United States as they get ready to open up in the World Cup.

The one word that has been coming to my mind as of late is: Amazing. It's amazing. I don't mean to brag, or put my life on a pedestal. Lately I have been feeling a lot of pressure, some of it good and some of it bad, but that's life. As I think about what I have done over the past year and a half, it's pretty amazing that I can have two part time jobs, that I am very proud of, I can maintain a staff that has five completely different personalities, and take care of their payroll and schedule bi-weekly, and I can navigate a city on public transportation. I'm surprised I'm not somewhere rocking right now. I hope everybody has a great week. Pease.

Quiet

It's June people! And the Braves are on an 8 game winning streak!! And I'm extremely satisfied with the results! Other than that there is a lot of good stuff going on that's in the works... so I don't want to elaborate just yet, I'm going to stay quiet until they come to fruition. I did not get to canoeing because of the weather, but rest assure - I will be going in the near future! I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day holiday weekend and remembered the men and women making sacrifices for us, helping us live in freedom.

I'm sitting here trying to scratch my face, but it's not working... just a random thought I figured I would share...

Hope everyone has a marvelous Wednesday evening, and make it a tremendous Thursday tomorrow!

Just to let you know - I was able to reach my face to scratch it. Hard work pays off!

Lata!!!

My Good Buddy John David

So I've been getting a lot of comments about my blog about people that you want to meet, like my family and good friends. My family is coming in a little while, but I want to introduce you to a very good friend of mine, John David Johnson II. John David taught me Leadership and Sports my second year at Kennesaw. He was very timid by me, but most people that meet me for the first time are very timid and don't know what to say. When I started cracking jokes, he said yea, this kid is going to be alright. So I ended up with a B in the class, but if felt like an A. I really busted my butt in that class. Every since then, JD and I have developed this very unique relationship. In fact, this is going to sound weird, but I look at JD as a big brother or a second father figure in my life. JD has touched me in a way that I will be forever grateful. He has taught me the love and passion for the outdoors in a way that I never thought that I could view the outdoors. I may be very limited in what I can do, but he shows me that the wilderness has no boundaries. His family is one of the nicest families that I have ever met, from his wife to his son, who I freaking adore, to even his mom, dad, and nephews. They are stand up people and we need more people like John David in this world. Besides him always laughing at me, for God knows why, to him laughing at my staff for carrying a purse on a canoe (she's typing this.... and the purse did not come all the way onto the canoe), I can honestly say that JD is the man, and I look up to him. So, hugs and hand pounds bro.

Canoeing - KPeasey style!

On Friday I will be going canoeing for the first time ever. I have been white water rafting, but I've never been in a canoe before. On Sunday there was a trial run that went pretty well, but I did get really hot (and burnt!). Besides that it was a lot of fun and laid back - literally and figuratively. I hope that somebody will capture some photographs from this event to share with everyone. It should be a lot of fun! I'm really looking forward to Friday!

Ipod

For everybody that knows me, you know that my cell phone is on my wheelchair so that I can access it while I'm moving around. The other day, my buddy, Sam, who also happens to work for me, decided to go to the Home Depot to add on to my cell phone mount. I am please to announce that I now have a cell phone and an Ipod mount combination! It's great and I love it. I am getting ready for a canoe trip next Friday the 21st with John David, and Kirsten and I are going to practice on Sunday. It should be interesting. I hope everybody has a great night! More to come soon.
