How is everyone doing? It’s turned a little chilly this week in Minnesota (not surprising by any means), but the weekend is looking decent and we’ll be heading to my brother’s on the farm to celebrate the end of a safe and successful harvest, Halloween, and some serious duck hunting for the guys. I’m bringing […] Read more…
As I write this, it is Friday night at 7:01 p.m. and my son, the sixth grader, is doing his math homework – completely of his own accord. Yes, I am proud. And also yes, I felt his forehead in case he was feeling under the weather. It’s Friday, friends, and I couldn’t be happier […] Read more…
Thursday night has commenced and it’s just Joe and me around home tonight.

(Not complaining, […] Read more…
I figure it was 16 hours tops. That’s how much sleep I got total on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Some people don’t need 7-8 hours of sleep a night, but I happen to not be one of those people. This is why it would be more than a slight understatement to say I am very glad […] Read more…
Okay, so what day is it exactly? I completely lost track when I was in Puerto Rico a week ago for the National Turkey Federation Convention. (Don’t hate me because I just wrote that. Admit it – you would be the same way.) I got back late Sunday night and then hit the ground running […] Read more…
