Life’s Little Moments
I got to enjoy a nice four day weekend over the holiday. One of the highlights was that my brother came up from Ohio to visit. Saturday it was just my brother and brother-in-law, but Sunday my dad joined us. It is a rare occasion for the three of us to be together. It was … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments
Life’s Little Moments
It was a busy week at our house and quite frankly, I'm dog tired. (You'll get that by the end of the blog). My daughter's teeth are coming it a bit crowded, so she went to the orthodontist and had an expander put in this week. The idea is that the palate is still young … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments

What that meant was that they were out of the "Free Slurpee" cups. To me, this never made sense. The free slurpee is a small slurpee. If the … Continue reading Weekend Highlights
Our Fourth Was Missing Our “Fourth”
In all the years that Sam and I have been together, our city has always done fireworks on July 4th. Sam knew that she'd have the 4th off, so neither of us had to take any time off of work. Well, for whatever the reason, our city moved the fireworks to the 3rd of July … Continue reading Our Fourth Was Missing Our “Fourth”
Father’s Day 2026
By Friday, I was moving around a bit more thanks to medications. My back was still hurting a bit, but at least I was able to get around. My youngest kids stayed over at Nana's on Friday night. I had called my older boys to see if they were free for dinner, but they had … Continue reading Father’s Day 2026
