Okay, don't know why I didn't blog for the past 7 months with all the COVID going on as that would be interesting to look back on, so guess I will start now and see how it goes.  Better late than never.  With the weather turning cold today,  I ran to Costco and did notice with the mask on, my face was warm...lol.  HELLO !  Not ready for this cooler weather but nothing I can do about it.  If the sun was shining it would be much better.  Today, working in closet transferring winter clothes in and putting summer clothes out.  It disheartens me...  Terri asked me what I wanted for dinner and told her something warm.  ha!  More later...

Wow.  Another whirlwind week and not sure how they slip by so quickly.  Tuesday we were visited and had dinner with out of town relatives.  Always nice to see and catch up with.

Wednesday, friend from California was here and ended up at Jack Stack Freight House as a favorite BBQ place.  He was amazed how nice it was in the 60's as he brought parka but never needed. Terri starting getting sick again on Thursday and down still today.  One of Terri's cousins passed away on Wednesday from what appears to be an apparent heart attack.  Only 47 years old !

Friday brought us one of our first major snow storms of the winter waking up this morning with 4-6 inches on the ground.  It looks so pretty but I am going to have to get dressed pretty soon go out with the task of snow blowing the walks and drives and also do a couple of my neighbors that can't do it.  Taylor on another note had an accident last night in this weather.  Hit a slick spot and car spun out head on in to a pole.  Fortunately no one was hurt but I am a bit perplexed as the airbags did not deploy!

  I can tell just by the damage it will be totaled.  Now the task of getting a new car.  Well that's another week at a glance and more to come.  Stay warm everyone!

WOW...what a day in Kansas City with 62 degrees.  Yes, got Christmas lights down off the house and all put away.  So nice to wear shorts all day long.  Cleaned out the garage, took the car and washed it myself and polished the wheels and tires.  Even had the roof all the way open and it was great.  Going to be in the 50's almost all week so we can't complain about that.

Weather was so nice as cooked steaks on the grill this evening.  Thought about taking the cover off the fire pit and lighting it but it was so nice, didn't even need to do that.  Hope you had a great day and more tomorrow...

Happy New Year Everyone

Hope everyone's year is off to a great start!  I decided to after several years of being inactive to bring the blog back so let's see how it goes.  Friday was a great day meeting with clients and vendors as the promise of the New Year hopefully looks bright despite what is happening politically.  I am not even going into the political mode as it just frustrates me as well as a lot of other people, but I will say this government shut down has got to end.  The people getting hurt the most are the people not receiving pay checks.  And a couple things I did not realize about the shut down until recently, airplanes are not being inspected during the shut down and the longer this goes on, IRS tax refunds will be delayed and a lot of people and the economy count on this...  Enough already, wall or no wall and that is all I will say.

Had lunch at a GREAT little spot on the map, Price Rite Market & Deli aka: "the little store" on Line Creek.  That place is packed with bargains and everyday needs.  Plus the people that own it cook and make their food daily!  Yesterday's special for National Spaghetti Day was Spaghetti in red sauce with two house made meatballs, salad and bread and butter for only $5.99 !  They have daily specials and carry out a wide variety of Italian entrees all made fresh daily.  Check it out and follow them on Facebook.

Happy Hour'd last evening at Summit Grill in Gladstone.   Drinks very reasonable and small plates at happy hour more than a meal.  Had an order of Street Tacos (3), 2 Sliders ( only .95 cents each) and 6 wings and we were stuffed.  It is kind of confusing as the tall table in the bar are for the "dining room" and you have to be seated by hostess for those, so you must be at bar and sit at bar for Happy Hour.  Parking is alittle crazy as in same building as apartments, so somewhat limited close to building.  Check it out if you haven't as great addition to Northland...and packed on Friday evening.

Weather supposed to be nice tomorrow so maybe take down the Christmas lights outside?

Another week...

Whether you had the day off yesterday or worked, we are now upon another week and closer to Thanksgiving and the holiday season.  I can't believe all the articles I am seeing now about Black Friday and Cyber Monday...and then there are the stores that will now be open on Thanksgiving Day.  I don't know about you, but Thanksgiving Day is a day all about Family...not shopping so you won't catch me out.  I think everyone should veto the stores open that day, but I realize how bargain hungry we have all gotten.

I work with my business almost every day of the year including weekends as that's what it takes.  Oh yes, I do have my play time, but I owe it to my clients to help them grow their business however they can and get them noticed.  So if you are in need of a social media and public relations firm, contact me as we can't be beat for our service and our pricing is very competitive.  Let us put you in the spotlight.

And on another note, I am over all the celebrities doing actually crazy and ironic things to be noticed.  I guess that is all a part of the game, but I am not buying into it at all.  I watched DWTS last night and America, are you crazy keeping Bill.  While we all know this is a popularity contest, you let someone with talent go to keep a stiff ole guy who has no chance of winning, or does he.  I am also over it as that should have never happened.  If I was Bill, I would have stepped down as he was as in shock, just like the judges were that he was staying.  And bravo to Jack Osborne, he has really come a long way and I am quite impressed.

Well, on to another day with appointments and helping my clients get noticed.  What have you done for your clients lately?  Have a great week !

Okay, it's been since July I have written.  Why do I find it so hard to Blog?  I will say it once again, I will try to do better as I really do have alot to say...My company is doing very well but there is always room for more.  I didn't realize there were so many people out there that are in need of someone to take care of their social media for them and all of their press.  If you know of anyone in need of our services, please send them my way or direct them to our website at www.kneticgroup.com to contact us.  We may be looking for someone to join our team if we keep getting accounts which is great.  Maybe only a part time gig at first but could develop into more...wishful thinking on my part. 

So tell me what you think of our banks these days?  I have had some interesting and enlightening experiences lately with banks and not to mention any names, I am still taking it all in.  It seem while they are highly regulated, they still can pretty much do what they want to with your money...I think for now I will leave it at that.

And my friends at Diego's have a new opening date for their restaurant in Gladstone after some major set backs.  It is scheduled to open Friday December 6th.  Anyone want to have a cocktail with me there that night as surely going to be a "grand" opening and I have high expectations which they have assured me they will be meeting.

Three weeks from today...Thanksgiving and then the dreaded Black Friday.  I will be staying in no matter how great the bargains are as I really don't need it that bad.  Besides, my Pinot Nior will be calling me later that day.

Have a good one everyone and I will try, no promises to be better about Blogging.  Who knows, if I try I might do it...

Well here we go again.  I haven't written in a couple months and as you all know, it is not because I do not have anything to say.  Today however, I was very excited to get a sneak peek at a new restaurant that is opening up North.  Great new concept and it is going to look very sleek inside.  I will be opening maybe second week of August and think it will be a fabulous addition to the Northland. 

On another note, what is up with this hot weather.  My A/C just keeps running and I am sure when I see the electric bill I will be running out of money...lol.  I had a slight episode of heat exhaustion the past couple of days.  I overdid it on Sunday as painted outside for 4 1/2 hours and then laid by the pool for an hour and a half...what was I thinking.  Terri was good though and stopped and got me some Gatorade for the electrolights to charge me back up. 

Busy day tomorrow with a couple more proposals.  It is amazing how many people are just now realizing the impact that social media can have on their business.  I was speaking with someone today in fact that said they did not realize the impact period social media could have until they saw some of the recent trial and pleadings...and just yesterday watch a television show one of the girls on the show was getting her cell phone taken away and was freaking as she was only 2 posts away from 900 pictures on Instagram...wow...
Happy Thursday early to everyone...
