Thank you “Friend”

I went to the side door to put some boxes in the recycle bin and noticed a small box on the porch. Sam has ordered a few toys for Ella, so I assumed it was for her. I noticed that the box was addressed to me. I asked Sam if she had ordered anything for … Continue reading Thank you “Friend” →

I Just Want To Make It All Better

As a parent, you hate to see your child sick. You feel helpless. All you want to do is take away the hurt. You want to make them feel better.

National “Let It Go” Day

National Let It Go Day is celebrated on June 23 of every year. On this occasion, forget every regretful situation and the things that play on our minds and lead us to become angry, frustrated, hurt, guilt-ridden, or even embarrassed. It is time to let them go.

A Very Happy Father’s Day

As Father's Day approached this year, I wasn't really sure what to expect. My oldest son works so much, and when he isn't working, he's usually hanging out with his friends.

So Much Truth in One Cartoon

As Father's Day approaches, I think about my two sons (now 19 and almost 14), and my daughter (1) and son on the way. I realize just how fast time flies... I have no idea who did this cartoon, but it moved me to tears ....

You Give Me Fever …

Been a crazy week here. Ella wasn't feeling all that great Monday night and then woke up Tuesday with a 104 temp. We began to alternate the Tylenol/Motrin every four hours and were told that if the fever continued on Wednesday to do a Tele-Med visit. Wednesday morning, the fever was still there, so we … Continue reading You Give Me Fever … →

That’s one way I won’t watch your show…

I don't watch a lot of new TV shows. This is partly by choice and partly because of the lack of time to watch (or that I have better things to do!). I don't think that there has been any new show over the past, I don't know, 5 years that I was really excited … Continue reading That’s one way I won’t watch your show… →

Senior Cars – Did You Paint Yours?

33 years ago today (June 9, 1988) I walked the stage and was handed my diploma (ok, it was actually the diploma case) at my high school graduation. Exactly 25 years later, I would walk the stage again and receive my college degree in Sleep Medicine. On my way into work tonight, I saw a … Continue reading Senior Cars – Did You Paint Yours? →
