Roughly 20 years ago my children were in Little League Baseball. I loved going to the games and watching them perform what they practiced every week. My wife and I went in with the concept that we wanted our children to have fun. Sometimes, it was challenging for them when they either didn’t listen to […]

It’s happened again.  It only happens every four years, but it’s happened again! I am hooked on watching and following the Olympics. I don’t know what it is? Maybe it’s because I love sports. Maybe it’s because it’s a sense of National pride. Maybe it’s all the hype and hoopla of the events. Maybe it’s

We pride ourselves in keeping a nice clean home and upkeep of our lawn and landscaping. It is not only for our benefit but the rules of the neighborhood as our home is in a Homeowners Association. I truly enjoy mowing my lawn and my wife enjoys planting and taking care of the various flowers

This last week I got the chance to do something I’ve wanted to do since 1986… Yes, 1986. That was the year I graduated high school and the same year Ferris Bueller’s Day Off arrived in theaters. I must’ve seen that movie a dozen or more times as I worked at a movie theater when

There’s this thing about me… I overthink just about everything! I mean, it’s a real issue sometimes. It’s to the point where I wish there were some type of support group where I could go and work out my overthinkingness (yes, I just created a word). I think it stems from wanting to be perfect

Detours and Road Construction!  Just the thought of those words makes me cringe. To me they represent an interruption in my day or an interruption in something I’m trying to accomplish. Just yesterday, my wife and I were completing a 10-hour drive back from a quick visit out of state. It was actually the same

Several months ago, my wife and I were taking a trip that placed us on a road between Dallas, Texas and Albuquerque, New Mexico. If any of you have ever been on this road or on this path you may note that there is often not much to see. However, there is much to observe

If you’ve been following me over the last several months, you’ve probably discovered that I’m pretty passionate about a lot of things that include family, business, sports, etc. But I’m also passionate about music. A really good friend of mine introduced me to many musical styles years ago and I have come to truly appreciate
