Inspired by Blogmas

A few blogs that I follow, started to talk about "Blogmas" a week or so ago. From what I can tell it is a list of 25-31 Blog post ideas. Sort of a daily writing prompt that are all Christmas related. I did a search for "Blogmas" and read through a few of them. The … Continue reading Inspired by Blogmas →

Do You Hear What She Hears?

Since having her ear tubes put in, my daughter's vocabulary grows daily! This morning when I woke up, she was counting to four! She is asking for foods by name now. I had forgotten just how amazing it is to witness. There is a set of train tracks that is maybe a quarter mile from … Continue reading Do You Hear What She Hears? →

Physically Unfit

As I mentioned in a previous blog, I had my annual physical this week. "I'm gonna put on my mad face ..." is what the doc said to me when she came into the room. It broke the tension. I knew it wasn't gonna be a good visit. My bloodwork results hit my electronic chart … Continue reading Physically Unfit →

Christmas “Recycling” Project

It's hard to believe that next month, this blog will celebrate it's fourth "birthday!" As we enter the month of December, I am filled with nostalgia.

A Week In Review

Tonight I return to work after being off for 6 days. The best thing about being off was being able to spend time with my family. Naturally, I had my camera ready and caught many wonderful moments. Wednesday We were very minimal with the ornaments we put on the tree this year. Ella is all … Continue reading A Week In Review →

A Holiday Tradition

I was introduced to Jack Benny as a kid. I guess the first time I saw him was on Saturday mornings watching cartoons. In 1959, Jack and some of the cast of his show provided voices to "themselves" as mice in a cartoon called The Mouse That Jack Built. Jack, Mary Livingstone, and Rochester My … Continue reading A Holiday Tradition →

She’s Mad!

So this blog is basically a copy/paste from my wife's Facebook page, but it is too funny NOT to share! Ella watches Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood and in one particular episode there is a song they sing about being mad. In the episode there is a full version of the song (link below) but most of … Continue reading She’s Mad! →

The Quiet/Loud Game

My daughter has a new "game" she plays with me. It makes me laugh and I love it. Ever since she had her tube surgery, she is talking up a storm! Sometimes she is at the opposite end of the room and will for no reason just start repeating, "Hi, Dada!" "Hi, Mama!" over and … Continue reading The Quiet/Loud Game →

Gearing Up For The Holidays

I feel like I haven't really blogged about "life" lately. I kinda feel like I haven't really even had a minute to sit down and write. Between wacky schedules at work and an even wackier sleep schedule, writing has been a challenge. So here are some highlights from the past couple weeks.... Right after Halloween, … Continue reading Gearing Up For The Holidays →

Holy 500!

I was notified by Word Press that this blog hit a milestone!! Had I been paying attention, I would have made Blog #500 something a bit more special. Instead, my last blog (#500) was about how tired I am! Reflecting As I sat down to write Blog #501, I thought on how far this blog … Continue reading Holy 500! →
