Something to look forward to

It seems like forever since my wife and I have actually had a night (or day for that matter) out. We will remedy that tomorrow. Even though I work tonight, I have arranged for the kids to visit Nana and Papa tomorrow so that we can enjoy some time together. Sam's birthday is coming up … Continue reading Something to look forward to →

My Kids – Posers?

One of the things I love about Facebook is the ability to meet others who share the same interests as me. I belong to many different "fan" groups and have connected with some very cool people through those groups. Some time ago, I saw a painting of Moe Howard that I thought was very well … Continue reading My Kids – Posers? →

Another Weekend Wrap Up

On Friday, my son told me that he wasn't coming over for the weekend. Sam and I decided that we'd take Ella somewhere to burn off some energy (Andrew came along for the ride). When I got home from work Saturday morning, I stayed up and we all went to the Mid-Michigan Children's Museum in … Continue reading Another Weekend Wrap Up →

Weekend Wrap Up

What a crazy weekend! As much as I hate not getting a lot of sleep, I have to admit that some of the funniest stories I write about are due to lack of sleep. Take Saturday for example: We needed groceries and a few things, so Sam went to the store. On her way home, … Continue reading Weekend Wrap Up →

They Call Me “Dad”

At some point, when I get an extra few bucks, I wanna order this shirt. I am kind of over everything right now. Perhaps it is a lack of sleep, the need for a break/vacation, dealing with stupidity in many facets of life, an overwhelming amount of stress or a combination of all of these … Continue reading They Call Me “Dad” →

The Shenanigans Are Over

For the first time in 2 years, the Chicago River was dyed green yesterday. The St. Patrick's Day tradition had been put on hiatus because of the Covid-19 Pandemic. The dye will stay in the water for about 48 hours and then it will change back to normal. I posted my usual stupid St. Patrick's … Continue reading The Shenanigans Are Over →

Ice On. Ice Off.

I debated whether or not to write about this. Then I realized that I've already shared quite a bit of personal stuff with you already, so what's one more thing? As I stated in my previous blog, I am home recovering from a minor surgical procedure (Somewhere hidden in this blog is a hint as … Continue reading Ice On. Ice Off. →

2021 – What a Year!

At midnight tonight, we'll start a brand new year - 2022. Some have compared a new year to a book. The book with 365 blank pages - one for each day - and said that the book is ours to write. There is truth to that. As I looked back over my "book" entitled "2021," … Continue reading 2021 – What a Year! →

Christmas 2021 Recap

Another Christmas has come and gone. I hope that you had a Christmas full of wonderful memories! This Christmas was full of a lot of joy for us, but there were some things that left me sad. I will attempt to recap and keep it as happy as possible. Many of my Facebook friends have … Continue reading Christmas 2021 Recap →

A Special Addition to the Tree

This is one of those blogs that is overdue. It's a "Thank You." One of the things that I love about Christmas is decorating the tree. Most of the ornaments each have a special memory. As I have blogged about in the past, we try to get one new ornament every year that signifies a … Continue reading A Special Addition to the Tree →
