Home is not home

I have and will continue to make my first thought everyday to be make sure Jamie is happy living here in England but a comment by her Mom as Jamie flew to Denver, generated a response that made me feel really good. Mom: What time will you be home, James? Jamie: The 11th October I […]

Safe travels

If you love someone, sometimes you have to let them go…this morning I reluctantly let go of @jamierae09 at Sandbach to travel across the pond to be with her Mom for a few weeks to heal her heart and replenish her soul. Safe travels dude, see you soon!

The time has come

Not even sure Jamie had anticipated tonight coming so quickly but I had to watch her packing, a big suitcase half full, feeling good that she is going to be able to spend some quality time with her Mom and family even if it is tinged with sadness. Both of us in some way sad, […]

A point

The Middlewich and District Pool League started again tonight and we played at home against Dishers a good team with lots of good players. Not an easy start to the season especially because we finished bottom last year and did not win a single point throughout the entire summer league but we came out fighting […]

13…teen…teenager?

Lincoln turned 13 today, and I just want to know where that time has gone, it only seems like yesterday that I heard him cry as they lifted him out of his Mommy’s tummy. The doctor said, “Wow, he’s loud!” I was just happy he’d taken his first breath, not realising the significance of the […]

Just want to learn

Had another idea today about making two cabinets on wheels to go under my dartboard to replace the shelves I have installed but are less than practical. I have lots of ideas and watch tons of videos trying to learn how to work wood, and making stuff like that not only makes the tools I […]

Bo’lieve

Watching week 2, I was hoping to see improvement and although the defense played well holding the Steelers to 13 points and the special teams played well also, unfortunately the offense struggled again. I still think we are going to have a rough season and we need to accept this and allow Bo Nix to […]

The Ruse

A couple of weeks ago I had the idea to take Lincoln Go-Karting for his birthday and mentioned it to Jamie who said we should make it a surprise so we began the ruse. The fact that she is leaving to go home for three weeks on Friday meant wanting to spend this weekend all […]

81 not out

Although Grandad preferred to go to a funeral rather than celebrate his birthday, we made up for it by taking a cake and singing him happy birthday too!

How much

I got a “Good news, you’ve won a prize!” email this morning from the Lottery and I had that. Oh my gosh I wonder how much, 30 second feeling while I found and opened the app and logged in. I had actually won £30 the biggest win I have had for years. Although I only […]
