Welcome

     So about me and about this blog... I am married to Jessica and we have two adopted children, Ian and Marissa. We are considering fostering or adopting again.  I have a high stress job and a Type A personality to go with it but I think I am even tempered. I love to cook. My son is Gluten Free (GF) so I am constantly trying to find foods he likes. I have little creativity and wish I could write better. I am a fan of the New York Islanders, New York Yankees, and the Miami Dolphins. I like alternative music for the most part but I'll listen to almost everything except Country and Rap. I have a degree in Aeronautics which I'll likely never use which in a way is a shame because it took me 10 years to get it! I do most of the grocery shopping and I am a fairly avid couponer. I love filling a shopping cart and spending around $100 for it.  I am trying to live debt free and trying to teach my children this value. I run a small coin collecting supply business from home. I really enjoy interacting on Social Media sites like Facebook and Twitter and I am happy to have reconnected with many from my past. I'm a huge fan of the TnT. My favorite place is my hot tub because it forces me to relax and stops me from being pulled in 10 different directions. I do my best thinking out there. That's where this blog comes in. I think I will enjoy putting thoughts down here and I hope you will enjoy reading them. I also like the idea of getting them down because sooner rather than later, I will start forgetting what I'm thinking. If you look at the "My Interests" section, you will get an idea of the topics you will read about here. Anything and everything is fair game. Cheers!
