About the Author

Skiing. This is partly because he is ‘getting older.’ If you want to know more about what ‘getting older’ means to him and why it is in apostrophes, you’ll just have to read the book.

Paddle boarding. Even though it seems to be ‘all-the-rage’ these days, he has paddle boarded a few times in the past, and can report that the combined activities of standing up and sweeping very slowly is not all that much fun.

Sports. In his younger days he enjoyed playing soccer, basketball, baseball, football, hockey, tennis, golf, and while he still tries to play those sports, he enjoys them a little less because, you guessed it – he is ‘getting older.’

Hiking. Although he does not enjoy it all that much, and during some hikes he is mostly thinking that he would rather be at home watching the game.

Philly sports. He enjoys watching the Philly sports teams, and especially enjoys watching them win, which does NOT happen very often.

Assembling Ikea furniture, cleaning up messes (both kid and pet), and buying pet food and pet supplies at the pet store. In fact, if you happen to bump into him at the pet store, he’ll likely be grumbling about the amount and cost of pet food and supplies, so you should probably just leave him alone.
