Uncle Mike
You can always find your way home. Sometimes the journey home takes longer than others. Mike made his way home about four months ago. I barely knew him four months ago but every notion that I had about him previously, vanished. Suddenly, I saw the true Mike Reeves. Loving, caring, gently, sweet. All words that I would use to describe him now. He displayed nothing but his pure strong heart inside of a body that was slowing falling apart.
His pure strong heart was what repaired relationships and made him a part of our family again. He came back at just the right time. He was with his family when his brother took his last motorcycle ride up to heaven. He was with his family when his mother’s body won the battle over her will to live. He came back home just in time. And we were there for him just at the time when he needed us most.
The last piece of home was Melissa. In the last hours of his life he was reunited across phone lines with his daughter. His timing was perfect. He made it back home just in time to touch our hearts.

Marriage
Most people think that marriage is a compilation of compromises but in actuality it’s just a compilation of yes dear’s.

Light Bulb Switched Neighbors
There is this light switch down in the basement. The switch is located underneath the stairs in this tucked away area that I never really go to unless there is water in the basement and I need to vacuum it. The switch is located on the wall at the front of the house. If you follow the electrical conduit the light switch is connected to a light bulb with a pull string. If you flip the switch, nothing happens. However, if I pull the pull string the light bulb turns on. I flip the switch again, nothing happens. I pull the string again, the light goes off. I try the switch one more time in wonderment, nothing. I stare in amazement at this light switch. What could it possibly be used for?
There is this pull string light bulb in the basement. The light bulb is located in the center of the unfinished section of the basement. If you follow the electrical conduit the light bulb is connected to an electrical box on the wall at the front of the house. The electrical conduit stops there and appears to go outside the house. I have pulled the pull string many times and nothing has happened. Randomly, I have walked into the basement to find the light on. When I attempt to shut the light off by pulling the string nothing happens. Weeks later I will find the light off. Once I was in the basement doing laundry and the light flickered on and off and now continuously stays on. It has been on for months now. I have flipped every circuit breaker in the house to try and shut it off but the light is still continuously on. How do I shut this damn light off?

Russian Tortoise
I have a pet named Eliot that most people believe is a turtle. He is actually a Russian Tortoise but he’s not rushin’ anywhere!
