Last night in league play I had 9 strikes to start the game and then blew it in the 10th frame 🤦🏼‍♂️

Bright side is at least I got my all-time high score!

There’s a very good chance this is how my first happy hour this afternoon since starting the job is going to end up....

For 2026 I'm trying to explore more coffee shops in Kansas City.

Goal is to get out to a new spot once a week to work a few hours or just hang out.

Tomorrow I am going to try my first, Urban Prairie Coffee in Mission.

If you've ever been and have any suggestions, let me know!

This snow game is absolutely awesome!

F' the Hunts for building a dome stadium and taking these games away from us.

Ok, here is who I'm pulling for in this weekend's games:

Bills (screw the Broncos)
Texans (they seem 😎)
Rams (could root for Stafford to win another SB)
Niners (got to support the cousins and their team)

Ready for another fun weekend of football!

Some big news: I officially started a new role today!

It’s been a long journey, but I found a role that matches exactly what I was looking for.

I've shared so many disappointments that it feels great to share good news.

I'm so excited!

The football games over the last 4 days have been absolutely incredible, so many great ones.

I love sports.

This FCS National Championship game is absolutely wild!

We might be getting some free ball...

One of my 2026 goals is to support more local Kansas City businesses.

I’m building a ‘go-to’ list of spots to visit & recommend. Whether it’s a coffee shop, hidden restaurant or favorite local store, I want to hear it.

Drop your favorites below! 👇

Ready for some new and exciting things!!

Had a friend convince me I needed to watch Stranger Things.

Started the series around 9PM on Friday night with no expectations.

I stayed up until 4 in the morning last night and have made it through the first 2 seasons.

Needless to I'm exhausted but am officially hooked now.

Going to pull a Mac from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia,

I spent the last week binging on all the holiday treats and food to fatten up.

Starting today I'm kicking into gear with the workout and health to roll into 2026.

If any wants to be an accoutabilibuddy let me know!

Merry Christmas from Grandma Marge and me 🎄

Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season and a happy New Year!

Slept on it and I still think it sucks that the Chiefs are leaving Arrowhead for a lifeless dome.

I grew up going to games with my dad who was a season ticket holder for 20+ years and I’ve spent my adult years making great memories with friends out at Arrowhead.

What sucks is most of the new stadiums being built and especially the Chiefs new stadium is it's going to be a stupid dome.

Football should be played out in the elements. Give me the heat, cold, snow or rain games all day long.

I'll miss Arrowheads character. #ChiefsKingdom

There is going to be no crowd for the Christmas game. Can we flex the game out of that spot?? #ChiefsKingdom
December 21, 2025 at 8:38 PM
Alright, I think I just found the ideal new job for me and my love of hot dogs...

At the grocery store going through the checkout line:

Checkout lady: "Looks like you have a little one at home"

Me: "Actually I have a grandma at home"

Today I learned the shopping list for a 2 year old vs a 100 year old is pretty much exactly the same
December 17, 2025 at 11:29 PM
Well that just sucks but to say that's the first time in 11 years we don't make the playoffs is insane.

Still love my Chiefs! #ChiefsKingdom
