Suicide Is Not About Everyone Else
There’s an article floating around Facebook right now about suicide. “10 Things You Should Know Before You Kill Yourself”. Read it here. In fact, I read it twice and both times, it made me angry. I see lots of people floating the article around and talking about how it’s such a good article because it … Continue reading
2016: A Year of Change?
I put a question mark at the end of that title because it really is a question for me. I don’t believe in New Years resolutions. I also have a tendency to think the whole “new year” thing is a bit overrated. People always make ridiculous claims about how they are going to change their … Continue reading
It’s been too long
I haven’t written anything on here in almost a year. It’s amazing how fast time goes. I should be writing more about my kids but I find it’s better for me to spend time with them than write about them. Megan. My little girl. She turned 3 just a few months ago and she’s definitely … Continue reading
Hard work always pays off, eventually
I can’t say for certain, but I am pretty sure it was March 13th, 2000. It might have been the week before but it was 12 years ago. It’s kind of hard to remember that far back. I had spent a week getting materials ready and had never done this sort of thing before. I … Continue reading
My how time is passing
The kids are in bed and so is Tamara since she’s feeling a bit under the weather. Before I left the bedroom, I told her I was coming out to my office to do some writing as I have been wanting to do that for awhile now. Finally have a few minutes to do just … Continue reading
Writing helps
This is a definite record. I’m sure it’s been years since I have had 3 posts in under a week. It’s been a rough week but today feels good. I got up this morning with the kids and have been in a pretty good mood. Tamara is gone for the weekend so it’s just me … Continue reading
The road less travelled (because I've had no car)
I haven’t posted here in over a month. Man, it really is something that I have gotten away from. Oh well. I’ve got a few tales to tell today and I have a few minutes to spare so I’m doing a bit of writing. My car…Oh what a wonderful piece of crap it really is. … Continue reading
Unanswered Questions: Farewell To My dad
On May 27th of last year, I learned that my dad, my birth dad and the dad I spent my early years with, passed away. It was a call I had been waiting for for a very long time. I did a long post about how it hit me at the time, but right now, … Continue reading
Happy New Year
Well here we are. Another year gone by and another year started. 2011 has begun and let me tell you, the time off was WELL deserved and enjoyed. For the first time in a VERY long time, I actually did as little as possible. I think there was at least three to four days of … Continue reading
A trip out west, and back in time
On November 29th, 2010, I boarded Air Canada flight 8931 and began the long journey that would end only two days later. However, what happened during that brief stay in Hollywood, California would remind me of a great many things, including how lucky I really am. Anyone who has known me any length of time … Continue reading
