This post is dedicated to my youngest Son and middle child Scott. Today is Scott’s thirtieth birthday. Some 11 thousand other people were born on that day in the U.S., and our world has added approximately 3 billion people since he was born. Of those 3 billion more or less, I’d say I got the…
“Get off my lawn!” Saying it brings back images of the movie Gran Torino. Clint Eastwood staring down the barrel of his shotgun trained on a group of teenagers, whose fight happened to spill onto his front lawn. Their being there was unintended, and although the boys were up to no good, what Clint Eastwood was…
Back-to-back celebrations. Mother’s Day and Lydia’s 14th birthday. Of course, Sunday was Mother’s Day, and Monday was my lovely daughter Lydia’s 14th birthday. This will have been the second time I have celebrated both of these momentous occasions since my stroke, but the first time that they fell on consecutive days. I of posted my…
As I have said to you previously, music has always been a strong influence on my life. I guess then, it’s only appropriate that I was a DJ for 25 years of it. One particular song, which held special meaning to me, was a 1980’s song by Mike & the Mechanics, called The Living Years….

Now comes the time that we celebrate one year of the Bedheadbob BLOG. Well actually, the one-year anniversary won’t be the one-year anniversary, it isn’t until this Saturday, April 8th, so you still have time to get me that red Corvette I’ve always wanted. On a serious note though, it is a special moment for…
Now comes week three of my tribute series to the people who have helped me so much along my journey. Last week I wrote about Celia. From the response I got, I’m thinking about starting a fan club. I decided to spend the month of March dedicating posts, paying tribute to the people in my…
This is week three of my continued tribute to those special people who have helped to make my life full. This woman does so much for a great many people. It is fitting that this post appears on the very day that Celia opens her new venture, SpeakEasy Therapies and Fitness. It is destined to…
ANGELS AMONG US! We are coming up on the one-year anniversary of the start of this BLOG. There are a lot of people to whom, without their efforts, it simply wouldn’t have made it past the dream stage. Therefore, I will finish the year out, by spending each week paying tribute to them. Each week…
