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!
Too early …
They are doing a big upgrade at work this week. Because of that, I'm on days for part of the week. In order to be here at 6am, I had to get up at 3am. I haven't done that since I did a morning radio show on a daily basis!! At least when I did … Continue reading Too early …
Place your bets …
It wasn't too long ago that I remember seeing and hearing ads on TV and radio about gambling. The ads were all about getting help for a gambling addiction.

“I Miss Us”
Today, our baby boy is one month old. Ella turned 21 months old yesterday. Where did that time go? As you can imagine, life at our house is constant chaos. It's a whole new ball game with two under two. Now that I am back to work, Sam is getting the bulk of the chaos … Continue reading “I Miss Us”
Reels – Another Annoyance

Let’s Talk About Sax …
Today is National Saxophone Day! If you think about it, the saxophone is one of the most important instruments in pop music. As I think about some of the great early rock and roll songs, almost all of them had saxophone solos in them. Bill Haley and the Comets, Little Richard, Fats Domino, Big Joe … Continue reading Let’s Talk About Sax …
Running On Empty
I. Am. Exhausted. That pretty much sums up life for my wife and me. Having two kids under two is truly more difficult than either of of us could imagine. It is even more difficult now that I am back to work. For Sam, that means that she not only has both kids during the … Continue reading Running On Empty
