Same Ole Me (MM #4667)

I understand our desire as humans to change, evolve, and improve. For many, a New Year’s resolution is the simplest way to start. But does it matter when we begin? I’ve never been a resolution type of guy. I always try to improve but avoid a pronouncement once the calendar. I like to claim that…

Catching Up (MM #4304)

Our offices have been closed since just before Christmas. The entire company shuts down to allow everyone to recharge their batteries. It’s the first time I’ve ever enjoyed a perk like that. So I used the time to catch up on some projects I’d wanted to tackle but never finished. And while catching up is…

Big Stories (MM #4303)

The world always seems to slow down around the holidays. There isn’t usually a lot of important news to follow. Most of the time, celebrity deaths are the primary stories as the new year begins. But this year, if you’re a news hound like me, there were a couple of big stories to follow. And…

Hindsight (MM #3572)

If you’ve spent any time on social media in the last week I’m sure that you’ve seen this meme; in 2021 for the first time ever, hindsight will actually be 2020. While it’s a cute saying, it does bring up one question…

Snap Your Fingers (MM #3571)

If you’re like most people, I know you’d like to snap your fingers and make 2020 disappear. And while today is technically the end of this horrible year, it will never go away. As much as we don’t want to, we need to remember 2020 for as long as we can. If we remember what…

Fresh Start (MM #3206)

A new year is here, and many use the calendar change to get a fresh start on life. I’ll be honest, I’m don’t normally join in things like this but after last year…
