I’m fairly sure the vast majority of adults in the world have at some point wanted to lose a few pounds. I am no exception. Some people want to look super sexy, some want to lift the big weight, and some just want to be a little healthier. Or, in my case, you only gain weight in the belly, so you constantly look like you’re at least 6 months pregnant with a case of Guinness. Recently, and to a point, …

We’re currently in the home stretch of the summer. The thoughts about the upcoming school year are creeping their way into our heads, and our family vacation has come and gone. A COVID vacation is certainly different but should making a few concessions in order to still have some relaxation and bonding time with the family really be considered the “sacrifices” that some believe they are? We packed up the car with our bags, and enough supplies to feed and …
Whoa! Long time no talkie! I know you were dying to know where I went. . . Your loins, just quivering in anticipation, waiting for my next entry. The truth is, I started to feel a little overwhelmed with everything happening in life, and decided that things needed to be simplified for a little bit. * * * * * Probably the most exciting thing was when my wife pissed all over herself and the bathroom floor! You must understand, …
For years now, I’ve been surfing along the Android wave. “Look at my ‘superior’ OS” I would say. Scoffing at others about rooting my device and the freedoms it afforded me would be my most treasured past time. Then it happened. . . My priorities changed. I became a father. I no longer had time to search, download, and customize my roms. Instead I got to listen to my wife complain that pictures and videos weren’t as easy to send …
Did everyone make sure to set up Clorox Traps to disinfect the Easter bunny? It was a strange Easter, but fun. There was still an egg hunt, some baskets of candy, and even a “social distancing” dinner. I could easily write a long post about the day, and I still might. But, why waste a bunch of time on that, when I can help you? So here it is. . . * * * * * 8 Steps To Be A …
Day, I have no idea, of our pandemic. We’re holding together as well as can be expected. Adjusting to some of the nuances of Covid life. Everything outside of the home is slowing down, or stopped all together, and simple tasks have become more tedious or straight undoable. For example, Last Sunday, it was nice out, so I figured I’d run a few quick necessary errands and do a little house work. Our back storm door is broken and can …
Happy quarantine! Are we all having fun? Life has been a little more of an adjustment than I thought it would be. The world around us is stressful, it’s changing, and the depression is just being pumped in constantly through our eye holes and ear tunnels by means of news and social media. And yet, it’s somehow simultaneously dreadfully Boring. I’ve admittedly bought fully into it, and have become obsessed with Governor Cuomo’s daily briefings. When you sit back and …
We exist somewhere between serenity and absolute panic. New York is quarantined, schools are closed, non-essential businesses are closed, and every cough comes with a tinge of fear (super fun for those of us with asthma). Unfortunately, I get some extra worry than some families. I work in utilities, and thus am still required to go to work. On top of that, I have asthma, and have been coughing, so unless I get a fever, I’ll never actually know what …
Wachootoo In The Flesh! What’s up my little toaster strudels. It’s been a week. Nothing particularly odd, but still interesting and fun in it’s own ways. My oldest has had a cough. Not bad, it hasn’t cost her anytime at school, but she was kicked out of her chorus practice due to the distraction she was causing, and forced to wear a face mask (most likely because of the Corona Virus Scare). The baby is bad. Cute, but Wachootoo through …
Okay, so the title was just a tad dramatic. Not wrong, but a teensy weensy over the top. I’m not really sure if my wife and I have traditional beliefs with raising our daughters. I’m more sure that it doesn’t really matter. We know what we’re doing is the right thing and that’s the important part to hold on to. The interesting part was when we discussed those ideas and thoughts with Avari. * * * * * At seven …
