Just a Chicago guy juggling fatherhood and bachelorhood. An old trading floor broker now rolling in Chet the Ford Lemon, living by the river. These stories are life lessons meant to make you laugh, cry, and think. The “Chalkboard” is my daily post, scribbled on the blackboard in my kitchen—a ritual, a bit of therapy, and a small win to start the day. All Chalkheads are welcome to ride along.

January 3rd, 2022
The first Monday of 2022. The glow from the Christmas tree didn’t brighten my hallway this morning when I woke up. When I arrived at work the Christmas decorations were gone.
Time to get back to the grind.
You know the older I’ve gotten the less I wish. Seems like wishing only gets your hopes up.
I do wish I could win the lottery tonight, but that’s not likely.
