July begins, and so does this blog.

Today is July 1, and the summer vacation of summer 2013 is in full swing.

It's been wonderful spending time at home with my family after such a challenging school year. Yes, I am a teacher, and so is my wife, Paula. We have two kids, Maryn Dina and Mason Dean. Life is wonderful, we are blessed, and as time goes on I tend to realize even more how lucky we are, and how lucky I am. 

There is still a lot of summer left to enjoy, and that's great. Most people don't realize how much educators need to recharge their batteries before a new school year. It seems like a lot of time off, but both students and teachers all need to refresh their souls. It's nice being able to enjoy my own children as much as I do during these months, because during the school year I spend more hours of my day (awake, at least) with my students than my own kids. 

You'll find that on this blog, I'll give my thoughts on a lot of things. I like to write reviews, and make commentary on things. I like to share things I have seen or experienced, and enjoy writing in general. 

I'm doing this for myself more than anyone else. If you want to give it a glance, though, please be my guest.
