Me:
– My God & creator, who has blessed me with this life and all its ups and downs to get me to exactly where I am today
– My Proverbs 31 wife of 31+ years, who works part-time and runs her own custom cookie business (https://lnkd.in/ejWS3SGE)
– My special needs son, who is excelling in his job, making his own money, and maturing
– My daughter, who graduated college, got engaged, and just got her first “big girl” job
– My future son-in-law, who worships the ground my daughter walks on, has more guns than me, and can fix anything
– My job, which is not as *sexy* as owning the largest indoor shooting range in Atlanta, but enables me to use my gifts and work with a great and talented small team
– My GSDF brothers, who hold me accountable, run me ragged, and make me a better leader every day
– My dog, Briscoe, who thinks I am much better than I really am
– America’s military, who stand up and say, “Not on my watch!” and put their lives on the line for our nation
– America, the greatest national experiment in history!

What are you thankful for TODAY?

  • Back to Blogger

    Managing a WordPress site and writing in WordPress are two very different things.  I’ve enjoyed the simplicity and power of plugins managing Atlanta Tech Blogs using a simple, cheap WordPress framework with a dozen or so plugins.  It works. But writing in WordPress isn’t cutting it for me.  That, among a couple of other reasons,…

  • Was 2014 a good year?

    I tweeted this on December 30: Goodbye “cathie”. You’re dead to me. Today, I am #cancer free. Good riddance, 2014. You were not fun, but you gave us much material. #HNY — Kevin Sandlin (@kevsandlin) December 30, 2014 I’ll get to the cancer portion later, but my reason for embedding that particular tweet was “good…
