Today’s episode is about perspective. I’ve spoken on this topic several times before, but that’s because I believe it is incredibly important. It’s not only important, but it’s a topic that needs to be looked at from many different angles to fully appreciate. Last week I had coffee with a good friend of mine and the topic of perspective came up. He’s a pastor and he shared how interesting it is to see people in different situations. He talks with people all the time who are going through difficult times, but the thing that sets people apart is their perspective. I totally agree. Our perspective while we are in the midst of challenges often dictates how challenging those times will be. If nothing else, our perspective will determine how bearable those times will be.

Now, one of the great things about Comiccons are the wonderful costumes that some of the attendees wear. You can really see the thought and effort put into them. In fact some of the attendees have better costumes than the convention’s special invited guests that are professional cosplayers. Read More…

Well, as I mentioned on Friday, we were under a high alert for severe weather over the weekend. Fortunately, the weather did not get nearly as bad as predicted. We did get a lot of rain, and quite a few people sustained damage due to flooding, but the Oklahoma City metro didn’t get hit with any tornados over the weekend. However, that didn’t stop us from being prepared just in case. Stuff I Learned Yesterday Episode 281-Be Prepared

I am currently 39 years, 2 months, and 19 days old. I hope that I am currently only half as wise as I will be when I am twice my age. Although there are days when I go to bed and feel like I haven’t learned anything that day, most of my days do include learning something. I’ve even discovered that on days when I felt like I didn’t learn anything at all, I actually gained experience that will pay off down the road.
Even though I know I’m still young and have a lot to learn, there are some things that I am certain that I know with absolute certainty. Read More…

When I was 10 years old my family moved to Cornwall Ontario. It was a big adjustment for me moving to a city where I didn’t know anyone. My dad knew I loved watching hockey and he wanted me make new friends as well as learn how to skate. So to kill two birds with one stone, he enrolled me in the local hockey association’s house league. Read More…

Remember a few weeks ago when I tried my hand at making deep-dish Chicago style stuffed pizza? That was a fantastically delicious experiment. However, it definitely did not go as planned.
I don’t cook much, and I’ve never baked anything, so the idea of making pizza from scratch was a little bit daunting and a little bit exciting. The only tricky part seemed to be making the dough. I wasn’t worried about making the sauce or finding the right ingredients. So before I embarked on my pizza making journey, I did some research. Read More…
