life at home: A Little Christmas Music... GarageGuy Style... - 12/16/09 11:31 PM
GarageGuys don't always do things the way everyone else does... We're a little twisted compared to the average... ok, compared to average.

life at home: Make some Mo! - 12/15/09 11:21 PM
Momentum...
Often discounted, but ever present...
A few months ago I lost my blogging Mo. It just went away... I had written a 101 part series, and while that only carried two of my posts each week on LaneBailey.com, when it ended, I was kind of lost. Around the same … (6 comments)

Have you heard of the Eastern Continental Divide? It is an imaginary line that runs right through the Norcross Historic District... and all of the rivers and streams on one side of this line eventually flow into the Atlantic... on the other side, they flow into the Gulf of Mexico.

life at home: Going Home for the Holidays? - 12/13/09 04:15 PM
For many years about this time I have a conversation with my mother... and it revolves around "Coming Home for Christmas". Up until the passing of my grandmother a few years ago, "Coming Home for Christmas" meant going up to Midland, MI... where I never lived. After that, my mom would … (3 comments)

life at home: Thanksgiving... Gee, thanks - 11/26/09 08:10 PM
Honestly, Thanksgiving is one of my least favorite holidays. I love the idea behind it, and can fully support being thankful for all of the wonderful things in my life... but I think that is something that we should remember daily, not just remember because there is a meal connected to … (6 comments)

life at home: Google Waving... - 10/21/09 11:16 PM
I just got my Google Wave invite. I have watched a few of the videos, and I am going to have to give this thing a rip. Combining text, chat, video, audio and a bunch of things I haven't even thought of yet... with email... seems pretty cool.
Thinking back not … (7 comments)

life at home: Bada Bing, Rada Room... ba - 10/04/09 11:46 AM
My wife has been wanting a Roomba for a long time. Kind of like I have wanted a TIG welder for a long time. I have a MIG welder... and it works quite well for what I do, but the TIG would make prettier welds. I don't NEED it, but it … (13 comments)

life at home: Do you have a renovation/improvement/maintenance plan? You should... - 09/20/09 06:15 PM
Yep... another plan.
But, as a home owner, there are a lot of things to keep up with. Air filter changes, painting and gutter cleaning. Those are just some of the tasks that we need to schedule... and then there is caulking, raking, trimming shrubs and fertilizing the lawn. That isn't … (4 comments)

life at home: Arcado Elementary Lunchtime Thoughts... - 08/20/09 12:48 PM
The "Lunch Lady" did NOT have an easy job.
One of the reasons that I embarked on my career in real estate is that I wanted to be able to spend more time IN the lives of my children. And today has definitely been a rung in that ladder. I volunteered … (7 comments)

life at home: Total Power... would you expect anything else? - 08/12/09 11:01 PM
Back a few months ago, my neighbor had a large tree come down in his yard. Several of us came out to give him a hand.
To start with, the tree needed to get out of the street. And then it needed to get down to a managable size to deal … (4 comments)

In hockey, among the tough guys, there is a common call. When they are getting ready to throw down, they often say "Come and Get it"... Dan Sullivan is a tough guy. As he jokingly says, he earns his money in the penalty box. But that is only the Dan Sullivan … (3 comments)

I had just sat down with the wife and kids for dinner. When the phone rang, I wasn't expecting what I heard...
My best friend's wife was calling to get directions to a trailhead that we regularly 4wheel. I gave her the directions and asked what was up. She told me … (14 comments)

That is right... I took a vacation from blogging. I haven't missed more than a handful of days in two years on my blog at LaneBailey.com. I have pre-written posts, and even post-dated a couple by a few hours.
But the last post I put up on that blog was Sunday. … (8 comments)

Longtime readers of my blog may have noticed that I write many of my letters to my father here. I lost him in 1997, but I still think he reads my blog. I try to limit the online letters to him to just a few times each year... his birthday, Father's … (7 comments)
