It's the age of more hair, it's the age of less hair. It's the age of less hair to comb but more hair to manage elsewhere. It's the age of eating right and eating less, gaining weight and excercising more, And remembering what was eaten. It's the age of forgetting what was done and remembering what...

I'm sick and I just ate a bowl of frozen peas.  I microwaved them of course, but they really didn't help. I usually get sinus pressure, runny nose sick, but this one is chest cough, floating head, fully clothed in bed with socks on sick.  Miserable. So, having to get up before I made a...

My favorite time of day is sunset. I love sunrise too, but sunset speaks to me. It calms me and right before the day fades away, I reflect. Of course it's always welcome after a bad day, but every sunset, after every hard fought day, brings reflection. We are driving to spend Thanksgiving with my...

It's a bit of a hazy and extremely humid Monday in beautiful Corfu Greece. Its the type of sky that tells you a storm is on the way and one that is sure to last a few days. Back in the tennis days I knew I wouldn't be working for a few days and I'd probably be mad as hell about it but now that I'm...

  It’s a sunny day once again in beautiful Corfu Greece and once again I slept most of the day away. Working nights like I do means you sleep in the day so I miss out on some of the sunshine.     1). Christmas movie alert number 1. Last night I saw the movie Serendipity with Kate...

  When Michael and I were younger we decided to go on the road. By on the road, I mean we put our stuff in storage, bought a motor home, packed up a then two year old Katlyn and went on the road. How did we make a living? No, we were not in a rock band.  We decided, before we bought the...

  It’s a rainy messy day in what is usually beautiful Corfu Greece. Most times the rain dampens my spirits but for some strange reason I'm feeling great! 1). When life serves you lemons make lemonade. At least that's what the old adage says. This past weekend I made enough lemonade to last a...

  Maybe the secret lies somewhere between The Unabomber and Kim Kardashian? I once read something along the lines of, "Don't compare yourself to others because it's like comparing their final cut to your behind the scenes footage." Not sure who said it, but I believe it to be true. However it...

It’s an ugly day in what is usually beautiful Corfu Greece and while I wait to record the series of interviews that will be tomorrows Phil Naessens Show I thought I would jot down some random thoughts…. 1). I still can’t believe how much bitterness this past Presidential election has caused. Lost...

You know that scene in A Few Good Men when Jack Nicholson says, "You can't handle the truth!"? I know he turned out to be a maniacal nut bag, but that line sticks with me. Most of the time I disagree with Jack.  Our government is too complicated and what are we really building in...
