My time is melting away

I just looked at the time and realized that I have lost over an hour in html battles to try and get that silly slide show working so I hope that all of you enjoy it because it came at great personal sacrifice. I don't know why Lindsey and I can't get a handle on how many hobbies we have. The picture you're enjoying on your left was added because I hear that pictures make for sweet blogs.

Beginning to Blog

Well, we have finally decided to enter the somewhat tech intensive and time-sucking venture that is blogging. We've both decided that journals are no fun to write in because nobody reads them; so we're just going to put our thoughts out there for whoever is interested in looking at it. It will be an interesting experience for the both of us.

Turns out I'm rarely bored

Actually this is just really hard for me. Hats off to bloggers everywhere. This is tricky.

Attempt at Computer Literacy

Bryan is always saying how he learned about computers just by messing around with them. I am usually too afraid to explore but today I was sufficiently bored as to be emboldened to try.

Hicks Family Art Revival – Bryan Early Work

We’re having a bit of an art revival at the Hicks’ home. My New Year’s resolution this year was to do an art project every week. This inspired to dig out my old sketch book from when Lindsey and I first got married. Every spring I would have what we came to refer to as my “Existential Crisis.” I would decide for some reason that nothing I was learning in school was really fulfilling and I was just going through the motions. I would attempt several antidotes like trying to learn a new language (Russian was a popular one), computer programming, rock climbing and back in 2007 it was art. I guess I’m on a 7 year cycle. This year I wanted to get my art and the girls’ art up on the blog so that we would remember when they did things (and to give myself some accountability). I was pretty happy with these pastel pieces I did back in college and so I wanted to add them to the collection too. Spring comes early here in Texas as my allergies can attest to so here’s the start of Existential Crisis 2015.
