TommyLog – Getting Older

This morning at the gym I was watching On Golden Pond and thoughts of getting old and aging flooded my mind. Terrible topic for working out to, BTW, but I digress. made me think about getting older and what my kids think and how I can work to stay young. You are only as young as you feel.

What keeps you feeling young at heart?

TommyLog – Moms Just Rock

When I watched replays of the winning putt at the Masters this past weekend, I could not help but notice the first person to congratulate Bubba Watson on his victory was his mother. She came running to his side and offered him a HUGE hug. He broken down in tears and they just melted there for a moment.

What an amazing outpouring of love for ones mom! We all have moms and they are so important. Moms sacrifice so much and what showed on TV needs to be played in every household in the world. We need more love and appreciation for moms and motherhood in general. Not just on mother’s day, but every day.

TommyLog – We Are Going Another Direction

A few days of wins and one pretty big loss. In the grand scheme, not a huge deal, but you have hope and it didn’t happen. I had spent the last 10 months working with a music related internet start-up in Milwaukee. I was their community manager and did it on the side. I loved the people I worked with. You help build buzz for an idea almost from the start with hopes of watching it bud into a HUGE enterprise. So many awesome people and just like that… “We Are Going Another Direction.” There was a bit of appreciation for what I had done, I need to be fair, but no goodbye’s– nothing. Just changed passwords within minutes and then BOOM…

Sad indeed. I feel like I failed. I’m not used to this feeling. This new opportunity made me stretch my skills and i’ll miss it.

THANK YOU for allowing me to shine, or at least think I was shining. I hope you make good on your offer to allow me to play in the sandbox again. We shall see.
