A tense dad with a bad back tries hot yoga

Through a series of events, typical ‘male’ posture and inflexibility I have some back issues.  I started seeing a chiropractor who commented that my demeanor seemed so relaxed, but when he tried to adjust me I was a tense wreck.  “What do you do to make yourself so tense?”; he asked.  I told him I’m a stay at home dad to 2.5 year old toddler and a 6 month old.  Continue reading A tense dad with a bad back tries hot yoga

Tips on adopting a dog into a family with children

The other day I was talking to a parent and they told me that they wanted a dog; but thought against it because they have a child.  Before being a parent I did social media and PR for an animal shelter.    I’m a firm believer that a dog has more benefits to a family environment than downfalls.   Continue reading Tips on adopting a dog into a family with children

The power of H20 and the Water Flosser to clean my teethy grin

I love that feeling after you just brushed and flossed your teeth.   There was once a time when I didn’t floss my teeth regularly.  I didn’t know that it was important, was living overseas and was scared to visit the dentist.  When I finally visited the dentist they told me that I had 8 cavities between my teeth.

“You can get cavities between your teeth?”, I said.  The dentist proceeded to break out the 8 cavities into a payment plan so that they could fill them all at one time.  Continue reading The power of H20 and the Water Flosser to clean my teethy grin

Lessons learned from disappointment and country music

Because I drive the kids around most of the radio stations can’t be listened to because the music is too coarse for young ears.  My motto is that if they have to bleep out words, then it’s a station I don’t listen to with the kids.  It was shortly after driving with the kids that I started listening to country music.
