On the old Soupy Sales show, one of the easiest way to set up a joke was to have someone come banging on his door. One of my favorite lines (that no one else finds funny) goes like this: (Door Knocking) (Soupy opens the door) "Yes?" (Man at door) "Well, I guess you don't like … Continue reading The Cat’s Meow

Stay Golden
My wife and I had just started dating and she told me she bought me a shirt. She swore that I would "love it." When it arrived, she immediately made me put it on. My first thought was that I was never going to wear it! I eventually caved and began wearing it around the … Continue reading Stay Golden
We Are “THAT” Couple
When Sam and I got married, a friend gave us two hand towels like the ones pictured above. Ours said, "Mr. Right" and "Mrs. Always Right!" In the years that we've been together, the only time Sam and I have ever "matched" was when we bought a ridiculous pair of Christmas pajamas! After that, we … Continue reading We Are “THAT” Couple
A New Car!!!
No, I wasn't on the Price is Right. No, I didn't win a new car. However, here is a story of how everything kind of fell into place. The Hyundai (The Goose Mobile) I have been driving was closing in on 200,000 miles. It was almost time to get new tires and put brakes on … Continue reading A New Car!!!
Birthday Trip To The Zoo
Tuesday was my wife's birthday. She wanted to take the kids to the Detroit Zoo. It was the perfect day! The temperatures were in the mid-70's and the sun was shining. We got to see all the animals that we hoped to see and the kids (and us) had a blast! You may remember that … Continue reading Birthday Trip To The Zoo

A Happy Weekend
Tuesdays mean back to work for me. Technically, Mondays are still part of my "weekend." Yesterday, I wrote about the amazing birthday I had Monday, but wanted to share a few other highlights from the past couple days. Sunday was Mother's Day. Sadly, Sam had to work that night. That didn't stop us from celebrating. … Continue reading A Happy Weekend
Another year passes …
Today I finished my 53rd trip around the sun. Birthdays stopped being special to me a long time ago. They are just another day. However, I will tell you that today was a birthday I won't soon forget. Let me tell you why ... Ella has been talking about my birthday for months. She's known … Continue reading Another year passes …
Much Needed Time
Yesterday I was supposed to work. When I woke up, I saw a text from work saying that we were down patients and it was my turn to stay home. There was a staff meeting that I had to call in and be a part of, but after that, it was all family time! The … Continue reading Much Needed Time
Early Gift For Mommy
When Sam got home from work today, we packed up the kids and took a drive to Lowe's. The purpose of the trip was to get a teeter totter for the swing set/playscape in the back yard. Once we were there, we asked around and found out that the only way to get pieces for … Continue reading Early Gift For Mommy
