It Doesn’t Get Any Better Than This
As a child of the ’80s I fondly remember the Old Milwaukee and Old Milwaukee Light commercials that would show a group of guys fishing, observing the Swedish Bikini Team, or some other great manly thing. One of the guys would take a sip of a canned Old Milwaukee and then would say, “It... »
Living
Yikes… Its been almost a month since I’ve written anything. What happened? Did I give up on my quest to find my own true happiness? Did I realize I couldn’t survive without the corporate chain around my neck? Did I decide that my pursuit for finding joy was nothing more than just being lazy... »
Taking Your Time
They often say time is money. But it isn’t… Time is life. Time is all we have. When you run out of money you will be forced to find a way to make more, but when you run out of time (life) that’s it. You can’t buy more time. If that is true shouldn’t we... »
Express Lane
The other day I found myself waiting 3 or 4 people back on the ‘express lane’ at a local grocery store. I was trying to stay calm and not think about all the things I could be doing instead of standing in this ridiculous line. That is when the irony of our society jumped out... »

“If your ship doesn’t come in, swim out to meet it”~Jonathan Winters It is pretty easy to fill each day with emails, phone calls, and some wasted time on your favorite social media site. Then fill your evening with TV and movies. With long work days and distractions at home it is very easy to... »
Life is What You Make It
Last week as a major snow storm swept across the country, I logged into Facebook and found myself reading through my friends posts complaining about how cold it is, how much snow they got, how they can’t get out of their driveway, or how long it took for the snow plows to get to... »
Biggest Loser
The popularity of the recent television show ‘The Biggest Loser’ is amazing. What an excellent concept for a show. I am not a reality show fan but this particular one is changing people lives and motivating people at home to make major changes also. A couple of months ago when I was still going through... »
Time vs. Money
It is often said that ‘time is money’ but isn’t it interesting that it doesn’t work the other way around. You can sell your time for money but your money won’t buy time. Children are the best reminder of how time is quickly slipping away. My girls are growing up so fast they seem to get bigger... »
