  • Mind If I Vent?

    ·

    I’ve heard so many stories from some of my family members over the past few weeks that I finally have the need to vent or rant or whatever you want to call it. Of course, the people that need to hear this won’t, or they won’t believe it’s about them. Or they will say, “But…

  • Reach Out and Touch Someone

    ·

    It happened again this week and I had forgotten how good it felt. I was having one of those days this week. It wasn’t a bad day or a particularly great day. You know, it was just a day. It was about 11:00 a.m. I had finished what I wanted to do that morning and…

    ·

    Chapter 45 Hi everyone! It’s me, Liam, and boy have I been busy. First the good news: my daddy did not have that Corona thing but he still had to stay home for that quarantine time. We had fun playing every day and watching Mickey Mouse. We even stayed in our jammies until lunch time…

  • C’mon! You Must Have SOME Blessings!

    ·

    I looked at the calendar and realized that this should be the “Thanksgiving Column.” Looking back I usually write about “counting your blessings.” As I’ve written before, if you look hard enough, I’m sure can find some good things that happened. Then along came 2020. I know: plenty of things were cancelled this year. My…

  • Who Rescues The Rescuers?

    ·

    “Who rescues the rescuers?” I’d like to take credit for that line but my wife posted it on Facebook this week. One of her paramedic colleagues died this week: committed suicide actually and that is not unusual with paramedics, police or firefighters lately. Many articles have been written with some even claiming, “More first responders…

  • Life After Covid

    ·

    The changes have started. I touched on this before when the quarantine began. I wondered if some companies would find that a smaller support staff proved to be just fine so they wouldn’t hire everyone back. I’m noticing that some companies are staying with their work-at-home mode for at least part of the week. Last…

  • Missing That Closeness

    ·

    I read a meme the other day that made me lol, which I guess a good meme should. It was Clint Eastwood in that “Get off my porch” picture and it said: I know it’s been a rough few months for some people and there are still some restrictions. We are still having church via…

  • Maybe It’s Not So Bad

    ·

    America is about to enter another week of social distancing and quarantining because of Covid 19. It’s been an incredible time with so many things postponed and, for the most part, I think people are changing and adapting. Jimmy Fallon is taping a “Tonight Show” from his house starring his daughters as his wife runs…
