Okay, so it really isn’t a beautiful day here in New York today, weatherwise anyway. It’s hot, muggy and overcast, like it has been for the last few days and what they are saying for the entire week here basically. That’s okay, we’ll make the best of it. I thought I would take a little […]


Sometimes I feel like I live inside a bubble. I don’t get out much between having trouble moving around and working from home. I am a little leery of going a lot of places anymore with the fear of getting sick since when I was sick my immune system was compromised. I still have trouble […]


There’s been a lot going in our lives lately and I have found it difficult to get up the motivation to do any writing for several days. besides all of our personal hitches in the road, the tragedy in Colorado occurred as well and it just made everything I have been writing about seem so […]


It’s been kind of a crazy week around here, so I haven’t really had the time or felt much like doing any blogging the last couple of days. I am going to get back into now though. Writing always kind of lifts my spirits a bit and I think I could use a little bit […]


Steven had seen it in the basement when he moved in. Uncle Louis told him it was there and still worked fine, so it was really just a matter of retrieving it. He made sure to grab his cell phone and put it in his shorts pocket before heading to the basement. He knew it […]


Work, work and more work has been keeping away from blogging. It’s good that I have the work to do, for sure, but it doesn’t give me much time to do any fun writing. After a sweltering weekend here in New York, I have a little bit of time to get to some blogging before […]


A dream vacation. Boy does that sound good about now. It’s been one of those weeks where you just feel like packing everything up and disappearing for a while, which makes yesterday’s question so appropriate. It was: What is you dream vacation? Many people choose something exotic, with lots of sun and sand. Places like […]


Okay, back it at again here on the blog. I have got a lot of actually work done the last few days, so maybe I have a little bit of time to do some blogging. It’s been warm here in New York, but not oppressively hot like it was, so I have the back door […]


Work, work, work all day and now time for a quick break before I get back to it. In case you missed yesterday’s question, it was: What is your favorite black and white movie? I grew up watching a lot of black and white movies on television. Kids today might think there’s just something wrong […]


It’s been nice getting the chance to spend some weekend time with friends and with Michelle. We miss having Sean around, but he calls us every day to tell us how much fun he is having in Charlotte with his cousins, aunts and uncles. I’m glad he gets the chance to do some fun things […]
