It was a weekend in late October when the battle began – a battle whose first round would go to a device so simple in its design, yet so infuriating. Eventually, I would claim victory, but the road to getting there would be paved with anger and expletives. Yes it was the epic battle ofContinue reading “Clash of the bathroom titans”

I’m sending this note…to the future!
Sometimes I do something that just pleasantly surprises me when I come across it later (as opposed to the things where I later ask ‘why in the world did i do that?!’) In September, I took our air conditioners out of the windows. While one is small, the one for our downstairs is rather largeContinue reading “I’m sending this note…to the future!”
Stop the clock, I don’t want to get old
I am afraid of getting old. A few weeks back, my wife’s grandfather turned 92 years old and in honor of that rather impressive achievement, we took the baby with us to pay him a visit in the nursing home. This is where I need to be completely up front and honest – I don’tContinue reading “Stop the clock, I don’t want to get old”
365 days later…
Where in the world does the time go? Like a flash of light, our little boy’s birthday was upon us in the blink of an eye. It seems like only yesterday we were welcoming him back home to the cats, a slew of visitors, and introducing him to this thing called life for the veryContinue reading “365 days later…”
Wordless Wednesday – Superbaby
As of now we’re HERE…………………………………before you know it, we’ll be HERE
Family ties
You never know how paths are going to cross. My wife and I met purely by chance, when a co-worker of mine, when I first started at my current job, convinced me to take part in a community theater production. I made new friends, one of whom, six months later, I would begin dating whenContinue reading “Family ties”
He moves!!
It’s certainly been an interesting two weeks in the milestone department. Just about two weeks ago, our little guy suddenly went from just rolling around on the floor (something we have to be careful of in our living room, as the previous owners just threw very thin carpeting over hardwood, with no padding between), toContinue reading “He moves!!”
Welcome to (the new) Neighborhood
Around the time I was pre-school aged, as well as before, my day was incomplete if it didn’t involve a visit from Fred Rogers. I even had a sweater and pair of sneakers that I would pull out of the closet at the start of each show, climb onto (what seemed at the time toContinue reading “Welcome to (the new) Neighborhood”
The Voyage of Life
Please indulge and bear with my reflection as I post this, scribbled down on a loose piece of paper the night before the start of Spring: The large white flakes fell outside the dining room windows a day before the official start of Spring, leaving the backyard, the neighborhood, and many across the northeast blanketedContinue reading “The Voyage of Life”
Change to the menu
Leaps and bounds, right into the mouth. In the past week, our little guy has added solid foods to his menu. I say solid as in mushy, but heck, it’s certainly something a little more diverse than just milk, I’m sure. Eventually we would like to begin making his food on our own. It’s amazingContinue reading “Change to the menu”
