Adventures Of A Stay At Home Dad

Just trying to balance two little boys and my sanity . . .

We still have our Christmas lights up

Posted on August 31, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

I guess at this point it would be silly to take down our Christmas lights - after all, I think its a couple months till Christmas anyways so we will likely leave them them up. Every year, Mary and I always have the best intentions of putting up Halloween and fall decorations, usually what […]

How ridiculous

Posted on August 31, 2007 - Filed Under Ranting | Leave a Comment

I think it has been several years since the last time my wife and I were apart for more than a couple hours. Tonight my friend Dave and his brother came up from Connecticut for the weekend. We are going hiking tomorrow up Tecumseh so it should be a good time. So […]

Does your wife steal your razor?

Posted on August 30, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

Mine does, occasionally, and it’s never the same afterwards. It doesn’t matter if it was a brand new blade or not, trying to use it on my face is like taking a butter knife to an overcooked London Broil. On top of that, I had to take out a second mortgage last time […]

Apology to Sox Fans

Posted on August 30, 2007 - Filed Under Ranting | Leave a Comment

I should have know better. Because I was not fully aware of my ability to curse the team, I posted just the other day about the Sox gaining ground against the 2nd place Yankees.
Now after having been swept in 3 games, the lead that I so proudly proclaimed has been cut by nearly 40%, […]

Mainstream media strikes again

Posted on August 30, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

I, unapologetically, hold the mainstream media in fairly low regard. Though I may speak in glittering generalities, the ideal of impartial journalism seems to be completely lost on them. In addition to rejecting the notion that I may be an amateur journalist, I would not even call myself a writer. The only […]

Absolutely obsessed

Posted on August 29, 2007 - Filed Under Blogging, Entrepreneur | Leave a Comment

Now that I have a decent blog going, I have been obsessed lately about traffic and page rank. I am always checking on various metrics and trying to improve things. Admittedly my effort is monetarily motivated to some extent, however, it has become a bit like a conquest for me.
Here it is passed […]

New site that’s worth a Fortune

Posted on August 29, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

I am a glutton for information. Its just about all I read. I’m not saying thats good or bad, its just how I am. I generally read a book only if I can glean information from it that can benefit some aspect in my life. To this end I am constantly […]

I must be crazy

Posted on August 29, 2007 - Filed Under Ranting | Leave a Comment

A good friend of mine, Dave, is coming up for the weekend. He has been trying to visit for a couple of months now but things have been hectic for him as his wife just gave birth to their first child, Christopher, just a few weeks ago.
I am excited that he is […]

I need a vacation

Posted on August 29, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

The job of a parent is never done. If you are a stay at home parent, having children at home means that you are likely to be working in some capacity even on nights and weekends. Add on top of that having limited income and you can understand why I have not had […]

Thats what happens when you have kids

Posted on August 29, 2007 - Filed Under Parenting, Ranting, Stay At Home Dad | Leave a Comment

It was rather offensive . . . I can’t believe my wife actually put up with it and I certainly would not have gone out in public this way.
I badly needed a shower.
Thats what happens when you have kids. There are so many things that have to be done for them on […]
