Date Night

I took Monday off work this week so my wife and I could have a date night.  We lined up a sitter (Nana) and began to decide what we wanted to do. There have been plenty of things that my wife and I have wanted to do for a while, so I started looking at … Continue reading Date Night →

When You Wish …

Had a childhood flashback thanks to my daughter yesterday. It is that time of year! The commercials are already starting and two things arrived in the mail. The Amazon and Walmart Wish books arrived in the mail! Let me say that these are a FAR cry from the HUGE wish books that I went through … Continue reading When You Wish … →

A Happy Ending

Remember yesterday when I was talking about how stupid I was for losing my wallet? Well, the continuation of the story proves that I am even more stupid that previously stated. I decided that on my way home this morning I would stop again at Walmart to see if someone had turned it in. The … Continue reading A Happy Ending →

An Unwanted Headache

I'm going to beat myself up a bit. Why? Because I know better. I did a very dumb thing today. Here is my story. Have you ever misplaced your cell phone? Sometimes you haven't misplaced it, but the shot of total fear that you may have lost it will cause you to freak out. Right? … Continue reading An Unwanted Headache →

I Can See Clearly Now?

I picked up my new glasses on Tuesday and they are going to take some getting used to. I wore glasses from 4th grade right up until I had Lasik surgery about 20 years ago. My eyes were bad. Without them, everything was a blur. The Lasik surgery was more than I could have imagined! … Continue reading I Can See Clearly Now? →

A Two-riffic Birthday!

Yesterday, I blogged about it being Ella's last night as a one year old. Today (2-10) she officially turned two! On one of the Facebook "dad" groups I am a part of, someone posted that "Time is a thief." That is so true. I am still scratching my head and wondering how she could be … Continue reading A Two-riffic Birthday! →

I Miss Record Stores!

My first job was a paper route.  I delivered for both the Detroit Free Press and the Detroit News.  I guess I was probably about 10 or 11.  Some of your customers paid the paper directly, but most of the time, you had to go door to door to "collect" for the week's deliveries. My … Continue reading I Miss Record Stores! →
