Dude - My dad is cool
Think about supporting him in this important cause:
Hello friends and family,
I am joining with 9 other co-workers on our Bio-Rad, Redmond WA company team on Sat May 17, to raise money for the American Diabetes Association. We are taking part in the 2008 Seattle Tour de Cure.
We will each be riding various distances from 15 to 100 miles in this fund raising event.
I would appreciate your sponsorship for this worthy organization, as Taryn, I am sure will attest.
You can make a donation under my name by going to this website:
So far, our WA team has raised just over $1600.
Thank each and everyone of you for your support.
Sincerely and God bless,
Ross

Last big push
This has easily been the hardest semester of my college career.
I knew it would be hard, I am taking a very heavy load of classes: Seminar in Clinical Dietetics, Advanced Nutrition, Nutritional Assessment, Food Service Layout and Design and Principles of Financial Accounting. I have continued to work nearly 40-hours a week between Trader Joe's and my responsibilities with the P-family. That coupled with with my mom's knee injury early in the semester, initial wedding thoughts and planning and attempting to maintain some semblance of a life has left me with NO free time.
No free time for reading (other than for class), no free time for movies, no free time for social events, no free time for elaborate cooking, no free time for just about anything... So, please forgive me if I never seem to regularly take photos or post about cooking. Maybe its the business of it all that nourishes me.
While I can't wait for it to be over (I am literally counting the days...) I also realize I don't know what its like to not live like this, with every second of everyday accounted for. Believe it or not, its a little scary to think about what I would do with extra time.... Free time??
Realistically its something I don't think I'll have to worry about for a while since after these last few weeks of school comes the preparation for and the move to Houston, 6-months of internship, real wedding planning, preparation and execution and whatever else happens to occur.
We should all be so lucky.
