Sentimental
Many things make me feel nostalgic. I’m a sentimental softy at heart. The holidays are a great time for nostalgia, traditional foods and car rides to see the lights.

First Computer
I remember my first computer that my wife and I purchased. It was a Gateway (long gone). I was so excited. Opening the box was an adventure. Personal computers were still a new thing. At the time I was taking a course to teach me how to be a Microsoft engineer. My teacher said I… Continue reading

Fall
I like the Fall. The air is cool and crisp. It’s a relief from the hot and humid of Summer. The trees are changing color. Some trees are so bright that they radiate like the sun. But … I don’t like picking up leaves. I usually use my lawn mower to pick them up until… Continue reading

Improvement
I’m getting the hang of this blog stuff and building up my site. I don’t know where to start because I have a lot to say, but what I want to say is focused on spreading a message of hope, because my journey has been about overcoming negativity to find personal peace. I hope what… Continue reading

Block
Now that I have started my blog, I am lost for words. Perhaps I should post old material (and I have a lot) until I get out of my way. I think I am trying too hard, wanting every word to be profound, when the most important thing is to share simple thoughts about every… Continue reading
