A Purr-plexing Cat-astrophe?

So a co-worker came in last week and sat down next to me. "Keith, do you want another kitty?" Without any hesitation whatsoever I gave her a firm, "No!" She showed me a picture of four kittens who had been abandoned at a relative's house and said they were trying to find them homes. I … Continue reading A Purr-plexing Cat-astrophe? →

Bestie Birthday Wish

While she has been mentioned before in a few blogs, I have one friend who has never had one completely devoted to her. Today, on her birthday, I want to rectify that. As we get older, memories tend to fade. Details can get lost. We may remember things a bit differently than they actual happened. … Continue reading Bestie Birthday Wish →

I had a few days off over this past weekend and I got some much needed family time.

I had a day off this week and had a chance to see my daughter play T-ball. Before the game, we had to take a drive down to get my son's leg braces looked at. The whole family was in the car and Ella asked my wife to play "I am a C" song. I … Continue reading Songs From The Backseat →

Friday Photo Flashback

I was looking for a specific photo for today, but for the life of me, I cannot find it. However, while going through pictures, I found one that made me laugh out loud. The photo would have been taken around 2008-2009. At the time I would have still been with my ex. Our son, Dimitri … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback →
