I've been struggling with a few things lately. I decided to listen to my own advice and take a step back and look around and appreciate the little things. So this past week, I put Ella in her stroller and we took a 2 and a half mile walk around the neighborhood. She loves going … Continue reading A Morning Spring Walk

Ok, Ok, I’ll Write ….
I'm writing under protest. I still don't feel up to writing today. My last post was three days ago, and I wish I could say that I am past it. I'm not. I have nothing planned out, which is kind of a "no-no" when you are writing. I am only writing because I am forcing … Continue reading Ok, Ok, I’ll Write ….
Not in the Mood to Write
It's probably not a good idea to write when you are angry, so I won't. Maybe I will come back and elaborate in the future. For now, this will do .....
And the baby is a ….
I've been waiting for today for weeks! Because of Covid, my wife's OB/GYN is only allowing the patient in the office. With Ella, I was at every ultrasound. I looked forward to hearing the baby's heart beat each month. I loved that special togetherness that we felt when we were at the office. It has … Continue reading And the baby is a ….
National Humor Month Suggestion
April is National Humor Month and I only recently discovered that Sirius XM had added a comedy channel that I really have enjoyed. The Comedy Classics channel can be found for a limited time on Channel 104.

I Wanna Be Like Bandit!
I realize that the title of this blog (and the picture above) may be misleading, because it is not about Burt Reynolds. In my defense, they say that having a good blog title will make people want to read it - and here you are! So just what is this blog about? A cartoon role … Continue reading I Wanna Be Like Bandit!
Never Miss A Chance … To Keep Your Mouth Shut!
I have never read The First Law series, which is a series of graphic novels by Joe Ambercrombie. However, I came across a quote from Jezal dan Luthar (a character from that trilogy) that sets the stage for this blog: "Just keep your mouth shut and smile. That's always good advice" A book that I have … Continue reading Never Miss A Chance … To Keep Your Mouth Shut!
Weekend Anxiety
The above sign can be seen almost everywhere these days. A similar sign was on the door of the restaurant my boys and I had breakfast at on Sunday. It obviously doesn't mean anything .... In the past year, I have only eaten out twice. Once was for my anniversary (and they had everything set … Continue reading Weekend Anxiety
One (of many) Traffic Pet Peeves
There are some who might say I am not the best driver. I would tend to agree. I've had my share of accidents - some my fault and most not my fault. Every day I drive to work there is one intersection where I am waiting to get creamed because people don't understand the above … Continue reading One (of many) Traffic Pet Peeves
I Otter Write a Book…..
I love to read to Ella. She has so many great books. The book above is one that I bought for her and it is full of animal puns. I know that I bought it because I love otters, and hope she loves them, too. One thing I have often thought about is writing a … Continue reading I Otter Write a Book…..
