Beautiful Music In A Beautiful Building
Depending on when you’re reading this I am either: This year I joined the Spirit of Saint Anthony Choir and our Christmas Concert and Sing a long was/is December 17th at 3pm. We are singing in the beautiful St. Anthony of Padua Church on Acushnet Ave in New Bedford. I’ve known about this choir for…

Appreciation For The Four Seasons
I was walking the dog this week in the light snow we had Wednesday morning. I had on my winter coat, hat and gloves and Charlie was in his winter coat. Suddenly I had a flashback to just a few months ago. It was only four or five months ago that we would only go…

Christmas Shopping Craziness
This week I started my Christmas shopping which is a bit early for me. It’s not as late as a friend of mine who used to say he didn’t start until December 23rd. I never knew if he was telling the truth but I wouldn’t put it past him. Have you noticed that the stores…

Shocking Revelation: I Like Hallmark Movies

Raising Grampy – The Holidays!
Hi guys! It’s me, Liam, and I KNOW! It’s been awhile! Mommy asked me the other day why I hadn’t posted in a long time and I said, “Hey! I can only work with what I got!” Grampy was hogging the tablet. Mommy looked it up and I haven’t been able to write since October!…

Christmas Cards and Memories
I finished making out the Christmas cards earlier this week. As I’ve said before, I don’t know how this became my job but it has. My wife, Priscilla, buys a few boxes of cards every December 26th and then puts them away with the decorations every year. As soon as we take the decorations out…
