It is Friday morning the day before Halloween 2020. I always like to write a post before the holiday season begins as this is my favorite time of year and these final months always seem to fly by. I still try to summon that childhood holiday magic and writing a post helps me focus on…… Continue reading Journal Entry – Halloween 2020
Tag: Halloween
One of my favorite holidays. Halloween is the start of the big three: Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Halloween is the beginning of a very magical time.
The End of Halloween 2018
Holiday season is upon us. Halloween came and went and Thanksgiving is just around the corner. I’m just slightly late in the time frame I like to buy Christmas presents; I really enjoy getting my two boys great gifts but must get them before they sell out. Being busy with the new job and our…… Continue reading The End of Halloween 2018
End of Halloween

Journal Entry – 10.20.2016
It is 5:16 AM. Today I have an all day travel industry event and must leave very early so my morning ‘me time’ is cut very short. These things can be a bit draining but also great opportunities to do a lot of networking. Needless to say I’m looking forward to tomorrow which is Friday.…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 10.20.2016
Halloween 2015
It is 4:55 AM – I get an extra hour of “my time” this morning thanks to the daylight savings change on Saturday. This is no guarantee that my youngest will actually sleep an extra hour as I don’t believe he yet honors daylight savings. I always like to get a journal entry in at…… Continue reading Halloween 2015
