Winter Weather

Can you make it through a winter without getting a little depressed? This would be the year of challenge. I have managed to stay focused on the important things each storm: Spend time shoveling, doing work and spending time with the family on these extra days.
I do like June better than January.

Why do you...

Why do you do what you do for a career? There has to be a worthwhile reason. Money, quality of life, or maybe a calling in your life could all be good reasons. I think more and more about this as I get older. Why do I do what I do? What do you think?

Jeopardy

Watch Jeopardy with a competitive family. Lot of fun

About the kids

When we endeavor to do anything related to kids, it has to be about the kids. Whether it is coaching sports teams, teaching life lessons (like sharing), or even go skiing with the family, it has to be about the kids. We have to put our egos aside or our personal success aside and focus on the kids. Why is it that so many adults lose track of this?

New Year's Resolutions

SO does everyone come back to school with a New Year's Resolution of getting something done? The last six days have been as hectic as any I have had this year. I believe people are just trying to start off the year on the involved foot!

Ancient Aliens

I am sitting here watching "Ancient Aliens" on the History Channel with my kids. Quite an afternoon! Hard to believe we are the only life forms in the universe who sit around watching this kind of show.

When the game was ours

Just finished reading my first book with reading glasses. Another sign of getting old I dare say. "When the Game was Ours" is a great retrospective of the Bird and Magic Era, highly recommend it. There really will never be another era like that where two very similar players (and yet different) created a league like the did. Magic had more championships but looking at the stats that Larry had, scary. I wish I could have appreciated it more when I lived through it.
