Funny, but the post you are about to read is nothing like the first draft I wrote on this incident. In fact, it is the polar opposite of what I intended. Guess it really depends on which side of the glass you look through.
Let me explain
All in Family
Pack Up Your Troubles
I am by no means a hoarder, but if I were to die tomorrow, there is a lot of stuff that my kids will have to deal with (i.e. throw away).
A Very Black Friday
Why you should never drive with dogs, even if they have a license.
The Last Supper (No, Not That One)
I loved getting together with family, seeing my Grandmother, my Aunts and Uncles and especially my cousins, but when it came to the food, I was terrible. I was an adopted loaf of white bread in a family of exquisite pastries.
Not My First Concert
It was not mine, but it may have been my son Danny’s first concert.
Although, after what we saw that night, I’m surprised he ever went back to see another.
Wait! What? Who Are You?
You never know who you are going to run into on any given day (or night), or how that run in will turn out.
Ghosts of Jersey Storms Past: On the Anniversary of Hurricane Sandy
It is Monday night, and I am sitting here in New Jersey waiting for Hurricane Sandy to reach landfall.
Birthday Surprises Over the Years
But the real surprise is who continues to give them
The Most Eventful Weekend of My Life
The moments flew by me fast
The Big Chill Is Gone
Everyone has a favorite movie, and throughout our life, the movie itself never changes.
Or does it?
Like Goodfellas, But With a Cat (Goodfelines?*)
It was a dark and stormy night.
Actually, it was a beautiful sunny Monday afternoon when my brother, my sister, and myself dug a grave.
When You Were Born You Broke The Mold, Then Broke It Again
I am amazed that siblings growing up in the same house could be so different from one another. My daughter, Amanda, my sons, Alexander and Danny, may share a common genetic code, but that’s about it. You can tell they are related but I knew watching them grow up, they weren’t the same.
Hot Today, Chili Tomorrow
My youngest son is a really good cook.
He must get that from his mother because the last thing I want (nor can) do is cook.
The Simple Move That Ruined a First Date
In the early part of my online dating experience, when I was not quite a novice, but yet to achieve a Master's Degree in the art of finding love on the Internet, I met ChampagneLady58.
Turbulence On A Trip With My Ex-Wife (Part Two)
We landed in Dallas almost an hour late, but still needed to make our connecting flight to Oklahoma City.
Reinventing Christmas
Re-Post from an earlier blog:
When I first was separated from my ex-wife, Arlene, my three kids were all under 10 years old. When Christmas came around that year I knew it was going to be hard — maybe not so much for the kids, but for me (selfish).
Scooter For Sale, Inquire Within
My sister, Diane, is the strongest person I have ever known.
