I’m headed off to golf with a buddy today. It’s been some time since we’ve done this, but I’m up for it. I’ve been golfing with this particular friend for decades now. He was one of the first people I went out with. That was in the mid 1980’s. So yeah, we’ve been doing this…

They say the proof is in the pudding. Don’t get me wrong, I love pudding and I love proof, but this isn’t a Reece’s peanut butter cup kind of thing where you blend them and get great results. But I digress…This past week my first author’s proof arrived at my house. An author’s proof is…

I was watching a football game this weekend. It was the start of the NFL season, so I am actually talking about American football this time. I came home from church and turned on the TV to watch my Steelers playing at the Atlanta Falcons stadium. I don’t have anything in particular against the Falcons.…

Sometimes we cry because we are hurting. We get sad. The world comes at us all at once. We suffer a loss. It can be for any number of things. I cried this weekend. But I wasn’t sad. What happened was that we went to go see the band Switchfoot. During the show, Jon Foreman…

With the college football and NFL seasons both right around the corner you might think this week’s title is in reference to a touchdown, but it isn’t. My family and I work word puzzles everyday. Mostly it’s me and Mrs. MoM, but the kids jump in as well. Most of your puzzles are on the…

Tonight your MoM is doing of their favorite things…I’m going to see Sammy Hagar…at the Forum in LA! It’s cool because it is the same place that I saw my first big concert back in the mid-80’s. Hagar at the Forum, Baby. I have great memories of that show, including getting a flyer for an…

Yesterday afternoon Mrs. MoM and I were spending a Lazy Sunday watching a movie and working puzzle games. Other than the fact that Mrs. MoM wasn’t in the midst of a post-church nap, it was a fairly standard Sunday afternoon. As sometimes happens, she asked me if I smelled something. With having a Super Sniffer…

Today’s blog was going to be a bit late because I was scheduled to go play golf with a friend this morning. I did the prep: I hydrated the night before; I laid out my clothes so I wouldn’t need to find them in the wee morning hours; I put my clubs in the living…

My family had a mini-reunion of sorts this weekend. One daughter and her family flew to California while another daughter and her family travelled with us to meet them at Disneyland and to see our beloved Arsenal play a game in LA. A great time was had by all. Disneyland was uncharacteristically “empty”. (The longest…

My wife, Mrs. MoM, frequently reminds me that not everyone shares my affinity for soccer. However, when you write something new off the top of your head every Monday morning and you have a sports-minded life it gets tough! This week my family is going to see our favorite soccer team from England play a…
