Your Birthday #1

I have always enjoyed looking back at things from the past. When I worked at Honey Radio, I produced the Top 12 and 12 every weekday. We'd always have plenty of information about dates in history. No matter what year we were focusing on, we'd talk about how much a new vehicle cost or the … Continue reading Your Birthday #1 →

The Many Roles of … Mom

When you become a mother, you become more than a mother. You take on a variety of roles. In the 9 months that Ella has been with us, I have seen my wife, Sam, take on many of these roles.

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?!!

I'm glad, because this has allowed me to take Ella out for walks in the stroller through the neighborhood. At … Continue reading Autumn in Michigan →

Another Milestone Well, here it is - my 300th blog post. To be completely honest, I have a few more than 300, but some were kept private. So this is my 300th "published" blog.

Antiques and Other Thoughts

Old Treasures = Old Memories Lately, I've noticed some things on Facebook marketplace that take me back to my childhood. This is much like when I have stopped by Goodwill or the Salvation Army. One time I was walking through Goodwill and I saw a brass teapot that my grandmother had on a table in … Continue reading Antiques and Other Thoughts →
