Our little secret!- December 25, 2004 Its Christmas Eve, and Im listening to my new, BIG and RICH CD. Earlier tonight, before the girls went to bed we all watched THE SANTA CLAUSE 2. Afterwards, one of my daughters said "Dad I wish you were Santa Claus." Well, its a little past midnight and Ive got childrens table, two chairs, the Barbie Musical Castle, and a little tikes kitchen left to put together tonight. All I can say is, "be careful what you wish for baby girl, be very careful."

And, when...http://dadhood.blogspot.com/2004/12/something-strange-is-going-on.html Hit and miss- December 10, 2004 It has really been tough to blog here lately. As you may or may not know I was laid off from work several months ago. Actually thats how this site started. It has given me a way to vent. Now dont get me wrong I love spending time with my kid, but our financial situation hasnt been the greatest with just the single income of my wifes job. Anyway, after several months of sending in hundreds of resumes, and a number of interviews, I have finally received an offer letter.
