Happy belated fall everyone! It’s been a few months since I last blogged so here goes. I live in the Kansas City metro. I specifically live in Mission, Kansas. Kansas City is a collection of several cities on both sides of Kansas and Missouri. The Missouri border from my home is just a few miles […]
Happy late July everyone! Last year’s summer was slow and each day dragged out. This summer? Not so much! My kids start school on August 12, less than 3 weeks away! Everyone seems to be literally on vacation, not for a week or 2, but for the whole month! I see the auto-responders from marketing […]
Happy Sunday everyone! Over Memorial Day weekend, my family and I flew to Sanibel Island in Florida and enjoyed our first family vacation in over a year and a half. We were gone from the Saturday before the holiday to the following Thursday. Other than keeping an eye on email and Slack and handling invoices […]
Happy Friday everyone! A few weeks ago, my firm finally joined the correct century and moved from IMAP email to Google Workspace. Christy Rogers of Training Umbrella did some remote training with my team and was excellent! Continual education and professional learning are musts in this current remote age of working. I highly recommend her […]
Happy March everyone! February was very frigid here in Kansas City and I believe we had 7 to 10 straight days of the temperature no warming up past 10 degrees. Don’t get me wrong! It gets very cold here but I don’t recall it that many consecutive days. Such is life. I was recently interviewed […]
Happy belated 2021 everyone! I noticed it’s been since mid-December when I last blogged something. Unfortunately, I don’t have anything earth-shattering to say. For the first time since September 2019, I hopped on a plane and flew to Nashville. So almost 1.5 years of no travel. It was surreal to be on a plane with […]
Happy mid-December everyone! Seems like yesterday was the beginning of the pandemic in mid-March and now 2021 is right around the corner. Where did the past 9 months go? Please tell me! It’s been quite a year for almost all of us. Thanksgiving came and went. Now, Christmas is almost upon us. Cheers and blessings […]
Happy early Halloween everyone! Adam Stein, an old client and colleague introduced me to Ken Presti, Research Vice President, Analyst & Producer/Host of “AVANT Technology Insights with Ken Presti” podcast. As I mentioned in a previous post, I recently wrote a book, self-published it on Amazon, and was interviewed about the book. The interview was […]

Hey everyone! Fall, football, and school are back in full swing. (Sorta!) It’s odd to see empty NFL stadiums nationwide. The KC Chiefs hold 80,000 seats and they only allowed like 17,000 for their first home game. My kids have done virtual school since September. It’s much better than last spring but they go hybrid […]
