Changes are Coming

A heads up to you I am in the process of reformatting my book, which will also become available in print form.  Once the print book is available and the ebook is redone the price will be increasing. So… this post serves no purpose other than to let you know if you’ve been looking at the book but unsure, now is your chance to get it at the current price of $7.95

I am training for an August MudRun with some friends.  It’s been years since I have played competitive sports and years since I’ve considered myself fit.  I began running on a regular basis last fall and ran my first 5k in over two decades this past February.  Races keep me motivated, as do running buddies.  So to a MudRun we soon shall go. The running portion I’m not too concerned about.  Sure, my pace will be pathetically slow, but I…

Limited by Poland Syndrome? ?>

Limited by Poland Syndrome?

Last time I wrote about my decision between pursuing soccer or pursuing basketball and how my hand being as it is was a contributing factor in that decision.  I also stated that being PS had no negative effect on my ability to pursue soccer, it made soccer a more favorable choice.  But that isn’t entirely true. At the time I did not see myself limited due to PS, but I was.  In addition to my hand being deformed, my right arm…

Letting PS Limit Me or Letting it Guide Me ?>

Letting PS Limit Me or Letting it Guide Me

Overall, we live in a world (at least in the United States) where kids are told, “You can be anything you want to be.” If the idea behind that statement is don’t allow others to limit you, work hard and pursue your dreams then I’ll give a hearty AMEN to that. But more often, it seems to truly mean you can do anything you want to do and be anything you want to be, and completely ignores reality. If my child stops…

Swim Time is Here Again ?>

Swim Time is Here Again

Summer is coming and, if you are in the southern United States like me, swim time has already arrived.  For those PS-ers effected on their chest, this season can come with mixed emotions. School is out.  Warmer weather has returned.  Picnics.  BBQ’s.  Vacation.  So much excitement comes during the summer months, including swim time. I grew up in a home with a pool out back.  As a kid, we spent many of our summer days swimming in the pool or…
