Yup, that’s me at 10 weeks old, time sure flies by. My Mom says there is a book under that death-trap of a car seat? “The Joy of Sex.” Kind of a moot point to have after the fact, or is it. I’m now 39 (gasp, soon to be 40)and I have my own child: Alexander Vockler (gasp, a toddler). I live in the Pacific NW, where I’ve grown gils and webbed feet, I really wouldn’t have it any other way. If you want to hear my story of adoption, just click here.
Currently an executive for the family business (www.icdocatings.com), where I handle everything from plant operations to international sales. Sometimes I’m a web master and sometimes I’m a coach. It really depends on what is needed at the time. The company has provided me with many a growth opportunity, for which I am very grateful.
Besides raising my son, I love to write, photography (I’ve even sold a few shots), woodworking, hiking, kayaking, travel, and video games (yea right, time for video games?). I’m a huge geek and gamer, I can’t lie.
This blog is just stuff, the daily stuff that catches my eye and makes me want to share. I hope it’s full of some bits you need. Sometimes it goes months without being updated yet I hope you come back and find things to make you laugh.
