Today would have been my Godfather's birthday. I really miss him a lot. I found some pictures on a hard drive which brought a smile to my face today and I wanted to share.

Should I Be Proud or Just Chuckle?
This is one of those quickie blogs I wanted to share so I would always remember it. While at work one night last week, I received the following text message from Sam: It's silly little things like this that I will forever look back on and laugh out loud! Oh well, I picked up a … Continue reading Should I Be Proud or Just Chuckle?
I’ll Skip This One …
June will mark 34 years since I graduated from high school. My class has never had an "official" reunion. I'm not really sure why that is. It doesn't really matter. The only time our class had some sort of get together was a combined event with the class after us. They held it at a … Continue reading I’ll Skip This One …
Another Weekend Wrap Up
On Friday, my son told me that he wasn't coming over for the weekend. Sam and I decided that we'd take Ella somewhere to burn off some energy (Andrew came along for the ride).

Weekend Wrap Up
What a crazy weekend! As much as I hate not getting a lot of sleep, I have to admit that some of the funniest stories I write about are due to lack of sleep. Take Saturday for example: We needed groceries and a few things, so Sam went to the store. On her way home, … Continue reading Weekend Wrap Up
Funny Photo Memory
Due to my lack of creativity this week, I have turned to a daily writing prompt to spark a blog idea. The prompt that struck me was this: Find a picture that brings back a funny memory just by looking at it. Tell us about it. I have no shortage of pictures I can chose … Continue reading Funny Photo Memory
They Call Me “Dad”
At some point, when I get an extra few bucks, I wanna order this shirt. I am kind of over everything right now. Perhaps it is a lack of sleep, the need for a break/vacation, dealing with stupidity in many facets of life, an overwhelming amount of stress or a combination of all of these … Continue reading They Call Me “Dad”
