Single-handedly solving nothing

My Swinging Days Are Over

May 3, 2015 by acrockofschmidt 2 Comments

It happened again, today.  One of those unanticipated reminders that I am aging and doing so in a way few would ever describe as graceful.  As is so often the case at this stage in my life, this unwelcome reminder came courtesy of my children.  Another family Kodak moment where wowing the kids turns into […]

Winter Arrives and Out Comes The Soup Pot

November 9, 2014 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Well they don’t call Canada the Great White North for nothing.  Winter has arrived.  And when I say winter has arrived, I mean all of it has arrived.  Temperatures have plunged to double digit negatives and are forecast to remain so until Thursday.  Snow has been falling pretty much steady for twenty-four hours.  Transportation via […]

Stop Sneezing Into My Eyeballs!

June 17, 2014 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

So I’m sick; no, not Sarc sick, normal sick.  Achy head, phlegm in throat, and general malaise or as I like to call it, being a parent.  You know.  The kind of sick you get when your already sick kid sneezes into your face and you can literally feel the spatter of spittle on your […]

Pushing My Luck

April 13, 2014 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

This was edited April 2014 from its original first published as part of my September 2002 letter. And I’m STILL sick!!!  Granted, I’ve felt better in recent weeks, but I am still not fully recovered.  And to make matters worse, I worked myself into a relapse recently.  More accurately I played myself into a relapse.  […]

Something Is Amiss

April 13, 2014 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

This was edited in April 2014 from its original that was first published as part of my June 2002 letter. This, my dear readers, is a letter a long time in coming, and for good reason.  If you recall in my last epistle I wrote endlessly about my disgust at getting sick for my big […]
