Moments to Remember

This past Friday I was up early and off to the state capitol. One of the bigger sleep conferences was being held at the Kellogg Center on the campus of Michigan State University. I had no idea how bad traffic was going to be so I was on the road by 5:30am. I arrived about … Continue reading Moments to Remember →

Friday Photo Flashback

Every now and then I find a picture that I have taken that I haven't posted anywhere. In searching for another photo, I actually stumbled on one. Now, I didn't take it, but we had someone take it for us. For newer readers to this blog, back in 2019 I shared the story of how … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback →

Tune Tuesday – Silent Night

Merry Christmas Eve! It was on this day 206 years ago that one of the most beloved Christmas songs was performed for the first time. In the little town of Oberndorf, Austria, the St. Nicholas church was plagued by a broken organ. It seemed it would be a silent night... But out of that silence … Continue reading Tune Tuesday – Silent Night →

Christmas in September

To say that the past few days have been stressful is an understatement. There have been some very good moments and I tried to just take them all in. However, something was on my mind all weekend. I'm not going to get into detail on that. I could, but I won't. Let me just state … Continue reading Christmas in September →

“Mama’s Got a Squeezebox…”

It wasn't until I was working at B-95 that I discovered National Accordion Awareness Month. My buddy Tim and I would get together quite often and think of bits we could write and produce to play during our radio shows. We came up with some really funny stuff. It was mid-May and we were writing … Continue reading “Mama’s Got a Squeezebox…” →

Twas The Weekend Before Christmas …

Three more days until Christmas. I don't even know where the time has gone, but the holiday is FAST approaching! This past weekend I was pretty busy, and at the same time there were plenty of wonderful family moments together. After working four days and coming home, I feel like the kids have grown and … Continue reading Twas The Weekend Before Christmas … →

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 →

A Wave I Want NO Part Of (and other thoughts)

The Beach Boys sang the surfing hit "Catch a Wave" back in 1963. They were the kings of "surf rock" and their songs had a "happy" sound that made you wanna grab a surf board and head to the beach. Today, when we talk about waves, it has nothing to do with surfing. The wave … Continue reading A Wave I Want NO Part Of (and other thoughts) →

Wednesday Worries and Thoughts

Covid-19 Am I the only one that starts to freak out if I get one of the symptoms related to Covid-19?!! Monday, I got one of the symptoms (I will refrain from saying which one, but I visited the bathroom often), and my first thought was "Please don't let this be Covid!" I called in … Continue reading Wednesday Worries and Thoughts →
