Yes I Watch The Super Bowl. I Never Miss It!
Yes I’ll be watching tonight. I never miss the Super Bowl. I’ll have my butt in my recliner for kick off! Much earlier than that actually. My love for football started back in 1972. I was 11 years old and I started to appreciate the game. That’s also the year I became a Miami Dolphin…

But Does Any Of It Work??
If you spend any time at all online, I’m sure you’ve noticed all of these wonderful products that will cure ______. (Enter anything you struggle with.) But do any of them work? It doesn’t seem to matter which social media platform you’re on: Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok or Pinterest. And once you click on one…

Motivation Monday January 13, 2025
Like any good “Thought For The Day” it’s easier said than done. “What do you mean I never lose? I lose several times a week.” Do you though? It really is all in the way you react to things. If you look at every non-win as a learning experience, think what that would do to…

Welcome To The World Little One!
For those that follow me on Facebook, you heard the news this week: my granddaughter was born in Virginia on Monday! Actually I think I made that post on Wednesday. My son said, “Don’t post anything yet. Marla and I want to be the first.” We said okay and then waited— and waited. I know,…

They Say “You Become What You Constantly Think About.” Think So?
You become what you constantly think about. Have you heard that before? I’ve read it, heard it and viewed it many times and I saw it again this week. Earlier this week I saw a video on TikTok from a man named Rob Dial. Rob has a podcast called “The Mindset Mentor.” He’s a podcaster,…

Sometimes Just Hearing A Song Can Change Your Whole Outlook
I turned on some Christmas music the other day and the first song I heard was Johnny Mathis singing “It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas.” I immediately felt a sense of calm and a feeling of happiness. It’s weird how that happens, isn’t it? I wasn’t in a bad mood. It was just…

Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late
My commute in the morning is about twenty minutes. I drive from Fairhaven to Fall River here in Massachusetts and I am mostly on Route 195. That drive has been beautiful for the last couple of weeks with the leaves turning. I don’t know if I told you but the last time I was at…

It’ll Be Here Before You Know It
I was writing the date recently, actually Friday the 25th, when I realized, “Wow! There are only two months until Christmas!” Yes I know we have a 25th every month and years ago I used to make a big thing out of it when I was on the radio, especially in January… “Only 11 months…

Visiting a Military Melting Pot
I love visiting my son and daughter-in-law in Virginia Beach. Actually I enjoy visiting with all of children no matter where they are but that trip to Virginia Beach is always so interesting. For some background, my son, Doug, is a Chief in the Navy. He’s been in for 13 years now. Wow! I still…
