Faults

Listen, I am a good person.  I have a good moral character.  Even when no one is looking, I'd say like 99% of the time I do the right thing.  I genuinely feel like I have a good heart.  I'm interested in learning.  I'm interested in changing.  I love to hear other people's opinions on...

Usain Bolt

My daughter and I have started running together at the local tracks and football fields.  Just doing sprint variations, forward, backwards, sideways.  In between the sprints we will walk a lap or two.  Secretly, I added these in so I could catch my breath in between sprints, but don't tell her.  It's refreshing though, because...

Used to

Every time I think to myself about giving up on God or whatever I believe in at the time I get reminded that there is something bigger. I've believed in many different versions of "something is out there", whether that was God, The Sun, Nothing, My boyhood idol (still do), but each time I think... Continue Reading →

Coach Roberts

  It's late on Friday night.  Weymouth Dance Team Coach Ms. Roberts has just deleted a video she needed for a virtual dance team show she was preparing for her team to be watched at 3 pm the next day.  After a few tears, she gets back to work and doesn't rest until the video... Continue Reading →

24….7….365

Been a bit since I wrote.  Honestly if feels weird celebrating and writing a quirky story about my life and family when we are all stuck. Some in really crappy financial situations, others literally dealing with life and death.  I should have written a million stories during my time home.  The computer is always on,...

The End….

My family goes a little crazy around the time that my brother in law comes home from San  Francisco.  We love it, trust me, but some of us are worried about the small amount of time we get to see him and how they are always thinking about how quickly it will be over.  I... Continue Reading →

Zoom

What a weird time we are living in right now... I was sick a week before this quarantine was put in place so I am a week more crazy than the rest of my family.  Small little bouts of schizophrenia masked with too many glasses of wine.  Having to take a second and think about... Continue Reading →

The Grapes of Wrath

It's 9 pm on a Monday night and as I am relaxing on the couch I hear these words "Dadddd, can you come here" from my 15 year old.  She's been in her room doing homework for 15 minutes or so, homework I told her to start 3 hours ago, but she has her own... Continue Reading →

We Bought a Zoo

One of my favorite movies in the last few years was a movie with Matt Damon and Scarlet Johansson called We Bought A Zoo.  I know, if you saw it you probably thought it was ok, or just, whatever... But for me, I don't know, it just hit me differently.  It has a bit of everything,... Continue Reading →

Valentine

Valentine's Day was incredibly perfect this year, and I saw my wife for maybe 15 minutes total.  We worked all day, and by the time the wife and kids and I all got home my oldest daughter and I had a date.  See, we watch Survivor together.  If you read my blog it's probably been...
