Things That Make Us Happy
I saw a meme this week that I liked. No it wasn’t a post that makes you rethink your life or help you find a new direction. However, it was a meme I could totally agree with. Yup! I pretty much agree with everyone of them. Writing with a nice pen. I thought I was…

It’s OK To Say ”No”
One of the jobs I have everyday with the “Pete Braley Show” is to come up with “stuff.” It’s a part of my job I have always enjoyed even when I was doing the radio show. Someone once asked my wife, Priscilla, “How does he come up with all this material?” Answer: I was blessed…

“9-1-1 What’s Your Emergency?”
I watched an interesting episode of “Chicago Fire” last night. I’m not sure if it was last week’s episode or the week before. I think I had three weeks of shows on my DVR. It wasn’t the part where Joe Cruz struggled on a rescue because he’s suffering PTSD or where Casey told the son…

Prince Charles and Lady Diana had just gotten married in July. And I married Priscilla…..September 12, 1981. Forty years ago today. I had hair; I was thinner; and nothing…

A Trip Back In Time
Have you ever had a day where you’re just flooded with memories? Let’s see if I can explain: I was driving one day this week when I went by the old house we used to live in on South Main Street in Acushnet. It’s a little different now: same color but the landscaping is different.…

Oh What A Night
Last night was so nice. No, I haven’t hit the lottery —- yet. It’s not because of the friends we had over for “Wine Night.” Their friendship is precious and I never drink wine at those nights anyway. I prefer my Macallan 12 year old. It was nice because we finally turned off the air…

Charlie Chat: Another Trip Down South
Hello humans! It’s me, Charlie, just trying to stay cool which is not easy with all this fur. I guess it’s “hair” because my mom is so excited that I don’t shed. You’re welcome mom! I guess I’m getting a haircut soon. I’ve never had one of those before. I hope it’s not like getting…

Not Ready Yet
I get it. It’s been hot. In fact, I don’t think I went outside Friday unless the puppy had to do what puppies need to do. I pretty much stayed in the A/C all day. But I’m not ready yet. Ready for what? A friend of mine had a post on her Facebook page this…
