A few weeks ago, after some prodding from some blogger friends, I decided to experiment with a new feature. I was unsure if anyone would want to participate in another "Topic based" feature, so I asked around. The response was more than I had expected, so this is a trial run. In the days ahead, … Continue reading Share Your Nostalgia
Lions Fever
There are "fans"... And there are fans. I would say these two guys are true fans. Detroit Lions fans have waited a very long time to have a team and a coach that is worth cheering for. Last year was just amazing, and this year promises to be just as good or better. Some fans … Continue reading Lions Fever
Friday Photo Flashback
The timing on this photo find is almost perfect. We're less than two weeks away from Halloween and I stumbled on this photo of my folks. This photo made me laugh out loud!

My Favorite Norm MacDonald Joke
The late Norm MacDonald would have been 65 years old today. When he passed away in 2021, the world learned that he had been diagnosed with multiple myeloma back in 2013. He only told his family, agent, and producing partner, fearing that revealing his condition to the public would "affect the way he was perceived". … Continue reading My Favorite Norm MacDonald Joke

Movie Music Monday – Live and Let Die
On this day in 1927, Sir Roger Moore was born. I was introduced to him by my mother, who loved watching James Bond movies. I am ashamed to admit that as a kid, Roger Moore was the only James Bond I knew. It was years later when I found out that Sean Connery was the … Continue reading Movie Music Monday – Live and Let Die
Life’s Little Moments
I took the day off on Friday to celebrate Andrew's birthday. I worked a bit over Thursday night so they would be set for Friday and the weekend. We got Andrew an indoor trampoline to help him build some upper core strength. I knew I'd be putting it together when I got home. That way, … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments
I’m Sad Today …
Sigh. Thanks for a great season.
Book Recommendation – None of This Is True
All I can say is, "Wow!" I could not put this one down. Lisa Jewell's None of This is True was a novel that kept me wanting to know more. I feel like I should give you the Goodreads synopsis before I start giving my thoughts, so here it is: Lisa Jewell returns with a … Continue reading Book Recommendation – None of This Is True
