buy shoes. save lives...

I know I blogged before on Toms, and this is similar, but this is really cool and they are manufactured in Iraq by hand.

Check it out...

Buy Shoes. Save Lives

my wife rocks!

This blog has been pretty quiet lately as things in our house have been pretty crazy. My wife is finishing up her last few weeks of nursing school, 29 days to go to be exact. After having gone through architecture school and having to pull all-nighters every other night and practically living in the studio, I can feel her pain. Although, I did that when I was single with no commitments and could do what I pleased. My daughter and I are trying to support her as best we can and give her the dedicated time she needs to finish.

Each week that she gets closer to her graduation, she has more papers and tests, as if that was possible! She's been pretty much locked in the office for the past few weeks and it will probably be more of the same these final days.

This is simply a shout-out to give some love to student nurses. My wife participated in an academic decathlon of sorts a few weeks ago and received a shirt that proclaims, "student nurses rock!" I can certainly vouch for that. Although, my student nurse rocks the most!

I'll be blogging again soon. I've had some thoughts brewing for a while that I need to get down...
