So it Seems Life is Getting Busy Again

Yes, but have no fear for I am here for you guys and girls. If’ I’m being honest my life is about to get really, really busy again. This week my son is out of school for his winter break so the grind of dodging school buses and soccer moms in mini vans is done for a week but next week it’s back to it. Also the process of promoting me and having me learn multiple new jobs at the same time has begun at my job which is always a time suck. Don’t get me wrong, I’m excited and I’m humbled by the opportunity. Hell I am humbled by what my life is right now if we’re being completely honest. The issue is I do, and if they read this I probably wouldn’t be getting this potential promotion hahaha, most or close to all of my writing at work.

I vow to not disappear again. When I disappeared I had so many distractions, and granted they were all the very best distractions, that it became the new normal to go to work and work. To go home and do what I was doing. Not to write. I fell into a slump and I hit an absolute wall on the writing, writers block should be considered one of those naughty four-letter words in my opinion, but I will not and cannot allow that to happen again. So you may not see five-or-six posts a day on the blog but at the very least you will see me speaking to you every morning just as I am right now.

So look out for it… because it’s coming. Have a great day everyone. 

So it Seems the Grass isn't Always Greener...

So we meet again members of my extended family. Not the family I was born into but the family that I choose. Feel special, because you are. So we meet again on just another manic Monday but hopefully where it lacks in some departments it makes up for it in another. While waking up early in the morning sucks it's the good mornings that make it all worth it. While we have to wake up and go to work we'll always have lunch breaks and down time that get us through the day or simply keep us going. And there's always 4:30.

So while we have another manic Monday on our hands there's always a way to turn a negative into a positive, you just have to look for it. As the Yankees prepare to take the field again this morning for spring training workouts I leave you with this last word of knowledge and positive thinking, the grass is not always greener on the other side but it's always green where you water it.

Have a great Monday everyone.

So it Seems it’s Going to Be a Good Saturday

So it seems like today is going to be a good day. I’m back to writing, and to be honest I didn’t know how much I missed it until I stopped doing it and then started it back up again, it’s Saturday and I don’t have too much planned for the weekend. I have to help a friend this morning clean out his garage so he can buy himself a brand new boat to park in the empty slot but I am glad to help out a friend. It’s also going to be a good day because we came up with the idea to simply vent and talk here every morning, while mixing in Yankees baseball whenever possible of course, right here on the blog. Again, I know this is a Yankees-centric blog and I appreciate you guys just listening to me ramble on like I tend to do each and every morning.

Yankees positional players report to camp this morning if they haven’t already which truly kicks off the spring training season, so naturally that’s exciting. I can’t wait to see how everyone looks and see how much work everyone has put in over the offseason. Fun times, fun times.

Hope everyone has a great Saturday and a great weekend overall. 

So It Seems the World Works Against Us Sometimes

Good morning everyone and happy Friday to you all. I want to start this morning off by talking to you a bit and by thanking you for your continued support. There’s not likely to be too many blogs out there that can take the hiatus that I did and still come back to all hands on deck on Twitter and in the comments section of the site. I’m truly humbled and I’m forever grateful for you all.

It seems like the world works against us sometime. For example, this week I returned to the blog after the aforementioned long hiatus that I still can’t fully understand or explain. I just simply and completely checked out of the world entirely. I shut myself out to everything and everyone that does not live in my house and I don’t have a true explanation as to why.

This week has been tough. I’ve been enjoying writing again and I’m getting back into the habit and into the groove of writing again but life just continues to throw their curve balls that they love to throw. Work has been incredibly busy, and don’t tell my boss but I do the vast majority of my writing while I am at work, and my life outside of work has been twice as busy. Just this Wednesday I got a call from the woman who watches my son while I work and the call stated that he had fallen and busted his chin. Long story short and four hours later in an emergency room I was home at 10:00 pm, drained and not wanting to write.

You know what I did? I wrote anyway, and it was the content you saw yesterday featured on the blog, and you know what? It made me feel better. I’ve had so many special people come in and out of my life and I am truly blessed. You are my favorite thing.

Have a great Friday everyone. Position players are set to report to Yankees camp tomorrow if they haven’t already.
