Just Crazy

Posted under ADD, Cerebral Palsy, Dyslexia, Goal Setting, Parenting, Personal Development, Radio, Work by admin on Monday 28 September 2009 at 9:22 pm

I haven’t been posting as much as I would like to lately but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been busy. I’d like to give a brief update of some of the going on’s around here.

1) Metzger Baby #3 is on the way. We expect to have a little boy here no later than Thursday October 8th. We are very excited and had the room completely finished before some flooding made us move some toys into the room while we fix the flood damage.

2) Flood – We did have some minor flood damage but are so very thankful that it wasn’t worse. There are so many people who lost so much and we pray for them daily to recover. We are getting a new roof , thankfully covered by insurance,  and replacing some carpet not covered by insurance.

3) You have seen in some of my recent posts that Haley was called weird at school. We have worked with Haley to write a book. I am now in the process of getting it published. It will likely be self published and available for sale on this web site in the near future.

4) Haley and I filmed an interview about her writing the book and I hope to have the video posted before the baby arrives.  The video is currently in the editing room.

5) Articles for Cerebral Palsy Magazine. I was asked to write an article for the winter edition of Cerebral Palsy Magazine because of my election to East Cobber father of the year. I’m very excited about this honor and have written 2 articles. I’m trying to decided which one I like better. I’ll publish the other article here on the blog once I decide.

6) I have started on another book project. I’m going to be crowed sourcing a book about Dad’s by dad’s. I’m very excited about this book. It will start with a questionnaire that is being developed that I hope to have over 1000 dad’s complete. As the questionnaire is completed stats will be published to this site. One of the questions will be do you want to be interviewed for the book? I’ll set about interviewing all who want to be interviewed and compile the stories into a book. I have no idea how long this project will take but I’d like to have it close to complete by my 35th birthday in May, sooner if possible.

7) I could not tell if my Blog Talk Radio program was very good. I do have some additional guests who would be willing to do interviews but I’m just not sure if I should continue with the program. I’d love to hear some feedback. Please let me know your thoughts.

Finally as I expect to be very busy over the next few weeks until after the baby get’s here I may not have much of a chance to blog. Please be patient with me and continue reading as I will do my best to continue posting on a regular basis as my life normalizes again after the baby arrives.

DJ Gregory – Still Walking Blog Talk Radio Interview

Posted under Cerebral Palsy, Goal Setting, Radio by metzgerbusiness on Monday 20 July 2009 at 8:31 pm

DJ Gregory is a great guy. I had the oportunity to meet him a few weeks back and his witty story telling is wonderful. I have also had the opportunity to read his book about his year on the PGA tour. This is a wonderful book about the game of Golf and the athleets DJ walked with. DJ actually did something on the PGA tour that not other athleet has done. He walked every round of every match in the 2008 season. That’s over 900 miles in 47 weeks. While that walk would be quite an accomplishment for anyone DJ did this walk with CP. I looke forward to talkeing with DJ tomorrow night. We’ll discuss the challenge from start to finish and what he’s doing now. Come join us at 8:30 PM Tuesday Night July 21, 2009.

Our resource Page is growing

Posted under ADD, Cerebral Palsy, Dyslexia, Goal Setting, Parenting, Radio, Work by metzgerbusiness on Thursday 16 July 2009 at 9:49 pm

This post is really just an update.

Please remember to look at our resource page as it is growing.

We have had some great interviews on the radio program and while the guests have been exceptional I think I’m getting better with each show. Check out the shows as there has been some great information provided.

I love feedback and comments so please don’t be shy. Sign in and leave a comment. I have finally gotten a spam blocker on my comments and it has worked tremendously well so I no longer filter every comment and they post immediately as long as they are not spam.

For the radio program please let me know if you there is anyone you would like me to interview or if you have contacts that I can reach out to. While I have a pretty deep guest list it will only be deep as long as I keep stacking it so I appreciate any input or contacts.

Please tell your friends and family about this blog. I produce it for 2 reasons 1) It’s therapeutic for me and 2) I truly intend it to help others. I need to know the value it’s producing. I know this by the visits it gets and the recommendations from others.

Finally look for an article from me in the upcoming fall issue of the Cerebral Palsy Magazine.

Noreen is an incredible therapist! We have been visiting Noreen every summer for 2 weeks where we always take Haley to her next level of excellence during this visit. My wife drives an hour and 15 minutes to this therapy every day spends three hours with Noreen and then drives Haley home. Did I mention that Mel is 6 months pregnant. Here is a short video of Haley and Noreen working on the stairs. I’ll be publishing more video over the next week or so.
