The other day I had one of those moments that I am pretty sure most of us have had at some point. I was getting ready for an event, and for whatever reason, my brain decided it was time to go into full overthinking mode. Not a little thinking. I am talking about the kind […]

Because I run my business from home, I get a front-row seat to a lot of life happening around me. That includes watching my kids grow up, make decisions, and occasionally surprise me in ways I did not see coming. Now, my wife and I have been fortunate over the years to help our kids

I have worn glasses my entire life. No big deal as they have been part of my look longer than my wife’s hairstyle has stayed consistent (I’m going to get it for that one 😉). But over the last five or six years something showed up that I was not exactly excited to talk about.

A few days ago, I got one of those random texts from my oldest son. Now, if you have grown kids, you know exactly what I mean. It can be anything from a joke, to a random thought, to something that makes you stop and say, “Where did that come from?” And honestly, I love
I was having one of those days that makes a person feel like one has conquered the world. Work had gone great.

Here’s a story of what not to do in a relationship even though it might be hysterical. Recently, my wife came home from an appointment with her new hairdresser. Now before I go any further let me explain something. For several weeks there has been what I would describe as a full scale search operation

The other day I read a story that stuck with me. The short version is as follows: A man went to hear a speaker. He was excited to be there, but when he arrived, there were no seats available. Discouraged, he began to leave. Just as he was heading out, an usher noticed him. Instead

Several months ago, my wife and I took a road trip that was somewhere between ten and twelve hours depending on how often we stopped. Ten hours if we were disciplined. Twelve hours if snacks called, nature called, or we suddenly discovered a roadside attraction that apparently could not be passed by without investigation. We
