Almost Six Months It’s been almost six months since my mother passed away. I can honestly say this is by far the hardest thing that I have ever gone through. I’m coping, I’m managing, but understandably I still have my moments. I feel very fortunate to have a very loving family and a very great group of supportive friends that

My last post had me rambling on how I was at peace with my mother’s condition and my words with her that day. Interesting timing of that post given that she passed away later that night in a peaceful and dignified way. I had a feeling that it was going to be the day and that’s why I was so

I’ve been spending every day at hospice to see my mother. Not wanting to miss a moment of time with her, not wanting to have any regrets of “I wish I would have told her this” or “I should have said that” after she’s gone, I’ve been by her side daily telling her I love her and that I know

I just sent an email off to a friend (we call him the Egg Man) and he had asked how she was doing. I sent the following…and realized just what an inspiration this woman is. I almost wish she was a

A new website was launched yesterday. Give Me a Mac (www.GiveMeAMac.com) went up with the original intent of “I need a new computer. Let’s put it out there and see which generous person will help my cause so I may continue to develop new computer apps and get back into video work…one of my passions”. You’ve all seen the different

Hola loyal readers, it is time once again for me wax poetically about things that make me happy. Today is a simple mix of a material thing such as a magazine but also the work that goes into it. As some of you know, I too have been affected by this rough economy and I was laid off about a

We’re hearing about layoffs left and right and it’s scary. No need to fret though…we should shake it off and continue to pursue our passions. Funny…I just posted a similar article to Chia Town. That one was of course more business oriented but the message remains the same…don’t get down in the dumps because of this economy. Instead, use this
