Sometimes I get wordy and might not make a lot of sense. I might ramble on and on about something trying to make a point. BUT - on that rare occasion, I might actually be serious. Our oldest daughter turned 18 in March, Graduated High School in June, had her graduation rager in July and … Continue reading Words to Kate

Alone With My Thoughts:
Yup. Sometimes I’m alone with my thoughts. That’s not always a bad thing. I have a lot to think about. Or often I have nothing to think about and my mind just wanders. And sometimes…. Well, sometimes it’s the same thing…. So, just the other day, I was driving and not listening to any music … Continue reading Alone With My Thoughts:
Pick a Number……
Sometimes I am “that guy”. It might be something I did. It might be something I said. But sometimes, I am just a bonehead. Ok. Truth be told, OFTEN times, I’m a bonehead. If you are reading this and you’ve spent time at our FATASTIC cottage at the beach, then you’ll understand the story I … Continue reading Pick a Number……
Rambling On
My family tells me they rarely read my blog because the posts are too long. Here's a post that I hope doesn't get too wordy: Of all 26 letters in the English Language. I dislike "W" the most.
I have questions.
I live in a house with 2 ladies. My wife Lisa (who loves me and will do anything for me), my daughters Kate 18 and Charlotte 13 (who worship the ground I walk on) Hey – the name of my blog is literally Because Jim Says – so, because I say so, it is. Regardless, … Continue reading I have questions.

My youngest, Charlotte, was 2 and has very little recollection of … Continue reading A Dad’s Survival Guide to Disney
Jim Stafford Had it Right
My wife Lisa had a dream. For the 1st 15 years I knew her, she watched just about every home improvement and house flipping show there was. But now that she’s coming up on about 10 years of doing it, she’s the first to tell you, “It’s not like you see on TV”. I’ve only … Continue reading Jim Stafford Had it Right
Worst of the Worst
A few posts ago, I posted my favorite songs and my favorite albums. NOW HOLD ON. The name of my blog is “Because Jim Says”. And because “I say” then it we can all agree that these are THE best songs and THE best albums. If you didn’t immediately add those songs to your play … Continue reading Worst of the Worst
San Diego Chicken
I can’t bring it like I used to, but I still kind of bring it. One day I came home years ago and Lisa says, “Hey, I signed you up for the Cross Fit gym down the street”. Um…. Okay…… *sidenote 1 – WHAT THE HELL WAS SHE THINKING ? But I spent … Continue reading San Diego Chicken
There’s that 1 time we bought a boat.
Have you ever had to go to the bathroom really bad? No, I’m not talking about just needing to go really bad—I’m talking an epic dilemma and REALLY needing to go. We all have, I’m sure. But, I ask you this. Have you ever had to go so bad that you needed to take immediate … Continue reading There’s that 1 time we bought a boat.
