Madeline graduates today and I’m just full. Full of pride, love and of course tears for the moment. I’m such a sap and I know it but watching your oldest end her public school career is something just amazing and I’ll get to see it first hand tonight.
I can not wait to see what comes next. The sky’s the limit here Madeline and I love you so much!
I was readying an article about fast food employees picketing due to the low wages. Why would you picket and complain about the low wages of an entry level job? Seriously? I had an entry level job…WHEN I WAS 16!! I used it as a stepping stone to get a better job, and then a better job and so on. This is truly pathetic!!
I’m so glad my work ethic was taught to me by my father. We had some hard times growing up, but my father was never above temp work..whatever it took to keep things running in the Clifford household.
Do not hide behind your entry level job… you control your destiny, not the government.
Went to pay respects to a long time co-worker who passed away unexpectedly last weekend. When I arrived at the funeral home, there were over 80+ people in line and when I left the line was darn near out the door! What an amazing tribute to a great father, super husband and just all around nice guy! Working with someone for 14 years, you draw close.
I am at such a loss for words. What do you say to the kids and wife? Sadly no hallmark cards do justice. Really makes you think about your own life, legacy and how you act and treat others. Dave was a great example and it showed by the turn out.
Till we meet again David!
Today was Tommy’s Blue and Gold Cub Scout banquet. What a great day to be a kid. I’m so proud of my son Tommy. Today made me think fondly of my father and all the sacrifices he made to be with me and my activities. I love being a dad!! I love the example my dad is for me and my life. Fatherhood is amazing. You can’t put it into words.
Only 3 more days left at my current job. I’m so excited. Well actually really 2.5 as my exit interview is at 11:00 on Friday. And after that I guess I just go back to my desk and cry the afternoon away… So great! So Amazing to see what next!!!
