A delay ends

To all of you who read this regularly I apologize for my absence. Has you all know life happens and to me it has been no different. On May 30th my job with Metropolitan State went permanent which is step one of the current rebuilding life scheme. I have decided that I like the college life so much that I will make a career out of it. I now am into a position of helping other non-tradition students reach there dreams, and that is something that I find very rewarding, and having spent the last 5 years or so being compared to Robert (Windy) Miller for our gift for gab, I feel this is something I am prepare for.
The biking and exercise have been also put partially on hold, however Papa (that is Abby's name for her Grandfather) purchased this week a Adams tag-along, which is permanently hooked to Sir Walter. Any of you who have been associated with my rides on the MS Tram since 2002 know Sir Walter he is the Raleigh bike in which I rode. I could not see putting him out to pasture so I found this way to keep our relationship going. He will help me pull my grandchildren on rides for the next few years which all started on Wednesday.
The Chess game was also on hold, I played 3 games losing all 3, my mind was not in it. A lot of this was caused by the same reason my health. For you who understand my predicament my A1C has climbed to a 7.7. I am still working on the containment of life management.
Okay I have to cut this rambling session short, I am off to work and I should be back here tomorrow.

P.S.
Trivia question for the day: During my youth we had a family dog, that one of my siblings accidentally shot in the ear. (I believe, and if I am wrong I expect I will be corrected.) Can you name him? To answer this you would need to have been there or privy to our family history.
