A Message from KPeasey

Hello Blogger Nation, we are taking a short break from profiling staff, but we will get back to it this week with profiles of Hartford and Kate.

First of all, I will like to invite each and every one of you to Kennesaw State on April 1st where I will be giving a comedy/inspirational speech. I am the headliner. KylePease.org is soaring to new heights with 4 possible speeches in April and May. Two are definite and two are in the process of being booked right now.

The new staff member, oh yea Kirsten, that's her name, she is doing an excellent job. :-) (You should see her face when I said that)

I just everyone to know how much I appreciate them and everything that they do for me to make my life a success. From Janice, to Dick, to my brothers, and to my incredible staff and support people to Career Sports, to Publix, and oh yes, to Marta. Thank you, even though Marta when it's convenient to them. You guys will never know how much of a positive impact, and how much I look up to each and every one of you, even if I have only met you one time.

Well I'm off to work. Keep on keeping on. Please come out on Thursday night if you're in the Kennesaw, and if your wife allows you to. Or your significant other, to be politically correct.

Q & A With Sam-a-lama-ding-dong-- MY BOIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Here we go,

Q. How did you meet Kyle?
A.In mid November of 2008 I received an email from my mother that was for a position as a caretaker for someone with Cerebral Palsy. At this point in my life I was living in my own apartment and had worked for a variety of restaurants in Decatur, GA. I was starting to get fed up with the same old thing everyday so I decided to give it a shot. I called the number on the advertisement and on the other end of the line was the sweet woman I now know as Janis Pease. I called at 12:00, came in for an interview at 2:00 and had the job by 3:00. I'm glad the family liked me because I may have seemed cool and collected on the outside, but I was very nervous. Meeting Kyle for the first time was amazing.

Q. What is the greatest time you ever had with Kyle?
A. I would have to say the greatest time for me was going up to Delaware with Kyle and another co-worker, Amy, to visit a couple of Kyle's relatives. Every part about the trip was incredible! From the food, to the family, to the beach surf fun we all had, the trip was as memorable as it could be.

Q. How would you describe Kyle's family?
A. Man! from the first time I met them I felt like they were the kind of people that I could really get along with. They were understanding, kind, compassionate, and new exactly what they needed for Kyle when it comes to workers. I absolutely love his family. Dick and Janis are two of the coolest down to earth people I've met in a long time and Brent, Kyle, and Evan are exciting in each one's own way (and they all still appreciate bathroom humor as much as I do). The whole family has become my second family.

Q. Who all have you met with Kyle?
A. Ummmmm...lemme think, Dave Francour (Jeff's Dad), Matt Ryan, Jason Smith, Cornell West, and a multitude of others that I won't bore you with because there really are just too many.

Q. What would you say is going to be your next adventure with Kyle?
A. Right now, I think Kyle, our friend Allie, and myself are trying to go to San Diego, CA to visit our good friends and former workers, Suzanne and Kate. Suzanne has just started her Physical Therapy rounds in various hospitals and will be in San Diego during the summer. Kate is from Cali so we'll be on her turf for the duration of the time we are there.

Q&A with Amy... the bestest staffer in the world

In the newest installment of the blog, we will be profiling each staff member and going behind the scenes with Team KPeasey.

In the second installment of Staff Q&As, we are focusing on Amy Garland Moore (again, the bestest staffer in the world), the longest staff member on Team KPeasey.

Q: How did you meet Kyle?
A: Well, before we ever met, homeboy ran me off the sidewalk at KSU a few times racing to class. But we officially met towards the end of Spring 06 semester through some mutual friends... and the rest is history.

Q: What has been the greatest time that you have ever had with Kyle?
A: Oh, there are a few... 1) Deleware... every second of it 2) Private bus to the front doors of Turner Field 3) Inappropriate hugs from Alan Iverson 4) Bowling with KPeasey 5) Summer Fest 09... But to tell you the truth, I know the best is yet to come :)

Q: How would you describe Kyle's family?
A: Are Dick and Janis going to read this??? Kidding... Um, I'd say quirky :) That was the first word that came to mind... They are amazing though and have become my second family, my "Atlanta family". There's a lot of love in the Pease fam!

Q: Who all have you met with Kyle?
A: Alan Iverson, some Philadelphia bball player (Josh Smith?), Matt Ryan, Fred the 11 Alive sportscaster, a few Falcons coaches/staff members, and I think there are a few more... but I have a bad memory.

Q: Would you be a fan of a chapstick with a KPeasey label on it?
A: I am a fan of any and all chapstick.


P.S. Amy typed this and took a few liberties with titling the post :)

New Stuff

Team KPeasey is proud to announce their newest member of the clan, who is currently typing this right now with my watchful eye over her. Her name is Kirsten. She has already fit in with the family with some of her stories, which we will not go into at this time, but so far so good. Everything else is going pretty well. Just people don't know how to cross the street without blocking the intersection! So I have sat down, and here's a little Q and A with Kirsten. (She is taking over for Suzanne)
The madness has begun. Good luck with your brackets! I am not participating in it. Ok here we go.

Q: What's your favorite part about shower time with Kyle?
A: Well, we're about to get into the shower so I'll have to let you know afterwards.

Q: What is your favorite thing to do with Kyle?
A: I don't know. Tonight's my first night, so it will have to be determined at a later date.

Q: Where are you from?
A: Virginia Beach... Come on Kyle, too easy.

This concludes this Q and A. Sorry we did not get too personal, but I will get back to you about some of her answers in much more detail.

Each week, we will be profiling a staff member and asking them questions. Saturday night it might be Hartford, Sam, Amy, Kate, or Myself. Oh wait, I don't take care of myself. So I hope you have a lovely evening and keep on, keeping on.

Kyle

Speeches

Keep On Truckin

With Spring Break here, and me not going anywhere, I'm having to face the realities of adulthood. However, I will be going to North Carolina with Hartford, going to Costa Rica with Kate, going on a cruise with Sam, and going to Missouri with Suzanne, all in spirit. Have fun, be safe, and don't do anything K Peasey wouldn't do. Everything is good in the neighborhood. Work, life, and Suzanne's departure for clinical rotation. :(
We started a cripple club, because Sam broke his ankle. Amy interviews tomorrow so cross your fingers. Sam's recovery is doing remarkably well. Signing off for now, K Peasey.
