I hope it finds you feeling. . . OK it may be night two and you know the acoustic approach is always special. . . It’s days like these you look back and realize the time we have on this one sweet world to do our little dance and share our energy is truly limited. . .

OK the project list keeps growing and it appears I’m either feeling my age, Pittsburgh winter, or just a little run down. . . .Well I guess an ALL of the ABOVE option is possible. What do you do? Here’s my current approach, thanks to that discussion about that Covey approach to the 7 Habits. Regroup, recover and let the mind and body rest, instead of diving into the next project.

Think back to before the IPhone. What did you do with those school pictures? Where did the old ones go? In one frame we found they kept going under the new one.

The severe weather from earlier this week, known as thunderstorms with tornadoes has turned to water everywhere. Thanks again to all who helped in anyway with getting this crazy project underway over in the Monongahela Valley. Preliminary results had a few good finds.

What do you train for? This has been one of my questions to all of the soccer players that I have coached. In the spirit of sharing best practices and trying to make competition fitter, stronger and more productive as Radiohead used to say, I figured I could start with the basics. For newbies the basics are starting out 2-3 times per week, just doing one set to exhaustion or for one minute using two count on extension and two […]

Reba and Crosby are not quite sure how many days it is until Christmas. December 2018 is starting to feel like 2016 when the went from being homeless in Wisconsin, to snowbirds in Florida, to full time residents of Charleroi, PA.

Oh my who would do a Thanksgiving on a Saturday? Or even only have steak instead of Turkey. I guess we should call that Ryan’s giving. Yes he’s back in the chilly commonwealth. Maybe the sun will show up again. So we’ve heard really amazing things about the Maples. It sounds like they are on the scale of Luke and Mikes in the winter so we will be a rather large group. Filet, filet, filet filet. That’s to be sung […]

Just winding through the old homestead and figured if you needed to furnish a new apartment, bachelor pad, she-shack or whatever we’d put these out in the open before we drop them off at a local charity. Some are full sets, some are only half sets.

Here was what the Post Gazette wrote: Romanians seeking asylum are in California, Pa. as part of U.S. Immigration program PG California PA article. I know we mentioned that something was happening in Charleroi a while ago. My guess is the locals haven’t caught on to the number of people living in town from Central America, the Carribean, and parts of Asia or else this post could be titled Charleroi, PA wants answers about immigrants. We have met people […]

I hope that someone sees this page and decides not to give up...
For over half my life I have suffered from either abuse, anxiety and/or depression. I am still alive due to having some great friends, who build me up and have stood by me even when I was lost.
