My parents are both gone a very long time. Nonetheless today would have been their anniversary and when I see the date I can't help but remember them both and be grateful for who they made me. Dates mean more to me today than they once did and aging is something I have learned is not a given for

Today is one of those not much going on days. I seem to be at a crossroads with a number of decisions to make that are very significant. I have been thinking about these things for some time and will soon have to act on them. Life is a stretch and just when you think you have it down.....things c

My Mercedes has not been right since I took it to my place for inspection failure. It came in perfect and after roughly $1400 of mostly labor charges for driving it to reset the computer the drivers seat no longer adjusts to my comfort and the clock is shot. There is one constant and that is a te

It is humid now and will be hot later. I am scheduled at Tanglewood tonight at a secondary venue for YoYo Ma, Emanuel Ax and Leonidis Karakos. The program is terrific but the evening will be hard. I think this may be my last season working at Tanglewood for numerous reasons. I park in the handica

Four weeks ago today I said goodbye to my best boy, Billy the Kid. It has been very difficult and I have been struggling. Today I finally went back to the Vet to pay my bill and bring the special food he never finished back. It was very hard but I did it. I am home and it is raining hard. Somehow

I am soon heading out to work at Tanglewood tonight. The temperature is fine and I am hoping to be assigned to work with someone I like and be within ear shout of hearing the music. I haven't been to the venue in a couple of weeks and I am glad it isn't hot or raining. Enjoy your evening.

I am not a happy camper. I have several hundred thousand miles with Virgin Air. About 15 years ago a Virgin Air flight attendant almost took my eye out demonstrating the seat belts. As a result of that after taking care of the eye, Virgin awarded me enough points for a couple of business class se
