Goally is the perfect tool for helping my son prepare for independent living

The COVID pandemic has been a nightmare. While it does appear to be moving in the right direction, at least for now, it's still keeping me apart from the people I love. That part is really challenging but someday soon, we'll find ourselves on the other end of this. It hasn't been all bad though. Thankfully, everyone in my orbit is safe and healthy. COVID went through my family as well but thankfully, everyone is okay. I've met some new people who have enriched my life and that's super awesome. One of the best things to come out of this nightmare, is that Gavin has discovered a new level of independence. I've touched on this before but as Gavin has been fully vaccinated, and I'm halfway there, we've begun talking…

COVID19 / Lockdown / My thoughts / Planning / Vaccine

I received the 1st dose of the Moderna #vaccine and this information can help you

Well it's been an eventful couple of days. I'm in a really good place and there's a couple of reasons for that but for this post, I just want to focus on one in particular. I believe in karma, I'd like to anyway. I feel like you get back from the Universe what you put out into it and I have a perfect example to share. On Friday evening, someone reached out to me on Twitter and asked if I would help them spread a message that I truly believe in. Basically it was speaking to the facts about the COVID vaccine and why it's so important that everyone gets it. I don't hide my views on this and I was happy to help any way I could. I was…

My thoughts

I’m starting to write a new chapter in the book of my life

I've haven't written anything super meaningful in a long time. The truth is that a I've written so much over the years that I've sorta burned out. There's something like 12,500 articles on this blog and I've written 99% of them. The rest is guest or sponsored content. I mean, gotta pay the bills right? I've got so many new followers that I've been able to get away with not putting a great deal of new content out because people are reading the older stuff for the first time and it helps them. It's not like there's a shortage of things to read. It's sorta cheating I suppose but I've been spread pretty thin and found writing a bit overwhelming. That's one of the reasons I started the podcast. It…

I’m pretty excited about the coming weeks

The kids have been driving me crazy all day but that's their job, right? Kids are supposed to drive their parents nuts just like we drove our parents nuts. They were laying it on pretty thick today though and I'm not sure how fair that is.. Lol We actually had a pretty decent day. I got some work done, which is always good. I'm already 75% done with this Friday's episode and I even have the sponsor ad done as well. All this on a fricking Monday no less. Couple of cool things coming up. Dr. Webby, from St Jude and the WHO will be on the pod to talk about the current status of COVID. We're gonna talk the importance of the vaccines, as well as dispel some of…

I Need A Smart TV And Don’t Know Where to Start!

Online shopping has taken the purchasing experience to brand new heights in recent years.

With a massive increase in options, comes a massive increase in decision making, and making a final decision is harder than ever, as people start to realize that option overwhelm is a very real thing! So how to match your taste to your budget in a world of limitless options?

The Nooie Cam 360 (REVIEW)

I'm gonna be brief with this because there isn't a tremendous amount that needs to be said. I've been testing out the $50 Nooie 360 Camera for a few weeks now and it's unbelievably awesome. The Nooie Cam 360 is a wireless indoor camera that records and streams in 1080p. The camera can record to the cloud or micro SD card that inserts right underneath the camera ball itself. This camera can be triggered by motion and/or sound and works crazy well in the dark due to its night vision feature. There's also 2 way audio so you can easily use it as a monitor for your kids. The Nooie Cam 360 rotates and pans up and down. The camera will track, record can follow motion. While some people want…
