Help me wish @AmyHockert a Happy Happy Birthday. She has a wicked funny sense of humor and a heart of gold. She’s a problem solver and a great listener. Send her some love today!

Need your virtual cheers right now for our very own @ian_leonard. He’s through mile 15.3 of his very first Ironman. He’s about 10 miles from the finish after a very long day that started with a 2.4 mile swim and a 112 mile bike. Send the guy some good finish line vibes.

We have some very sad news to share tonight. Meteorologist Steve Frazier has passed away following a a battle w/cancer. Thank you to all of you out there who encouraged him. I had the chance to see him Sunday and while he was filled with optimism and hope, he was at peace.

Remind me not to invite that bystander to my emergency.
Video shows man on motorbike apparently on his phone as he drove into sinkhole in southeast China. Authorities say he was not seriously hurt

Every time I troubleshoot a technical problem, I want to run around like Rocky with my arms in the air. And then I remember that I’m alone in my basement and I get over myself.

First time in 14 1/2 years that I haven’t had a little person at my side. They are all off to school so I think I’ll just play with this by myself.

Most incredible Boyd Huppert story yet. The sun is shining brightly.
Today marks 4 weeks since my bone marrow transplant. Not gonna lie. The first 3 weeks were brutal. But a week ago, it turned. Eating again. Walking with Sheri. My doc says I can go back to the newsroom on day 100, but I hope to start work from home sooner. Each day is precious!

I remember calling Jeff before we moved here and asking him if we'd be happy. Like a coach, he gave me a game plan and support I will never, ever forget. He's been there for me & my family as a mentor & friend since. Will miss having him here, but so happy for his next step.
BIG NEWS! Jeff Passolt is retiring after 23 years at FOX 9. Please join us in wishing him the best in retirement! @JeffPassoltFOX9.

Why no tie? Whats up with your face? Real questions from you. Yup…those are real questions. Here they are, answered on my skin cancer blog:.

A quick shout-out to super mom and super reporter @ChrisMPalladino . This is her last day @FOX9 as she starts a new media relations job. This business leads you to so many life-long friendships and we’re all so thankful she’s staying close by.

Yes. A panasonic. 1986. We were all so excited to cook baked potatoes in that baby. I'm confident it is still working to this day. I still have the cookbook for it, if you'd like to borrow it.

My brother was the photographer on this shoot. He did a lot to protect Shaquille and keep them both safe. But they are both pretty shaken up.
Back in my day, you only had to worry about storm surge and flying stop signs during hurricane live shots…. Not anymore.

I had the great privilege of covering an honor flight about nine years ago. It’s an experience I’ll never forget. So if you’re in an airport when one is getting ready to depart or land. Please stop and show the veterans your appreciation.

It’s hard to make a career change. Even harder to go out on your own. That’s why so many came out to celebrate former @FOX9 reporter @RoshiniR & 17 years of running her own company. We are so proud of you! @heatherbrown21 @WCCOAmelia.

As we look back on Election Night 2022, I have to give a special shout-out to @FOX9 reporters @courtneygodfrey and @mcguirereports who are both 8 months pregnant and worked an incredibly long day that stretched into Wednesday morning. They make it look easy.

Slipped away and the 5 of us spent some time on the road just enjoying nature. When you can, take some time off and get outside. Can’t believe the difference just one week makes!

When you work in TV news, there’s a lot that’s uncertain. But one thing is a given, you’ll meet a lot of good friends along the way. Thank you @wxyzalicia for coming to visit this weekend. We worked together in our 20’s, remain friends in our 40’s.

Needed to just be outside, so made a semi-crazy spontaneous decision last week to sign up for the virtual #asicsstockholmmarathon #mittvrlopp. Thankful for family & friends for the running, walking and talking this morning. @ian_leonard even pushed me through the last 2.5.

Another tough goodbye. Today is @HobieFOX9’s last day @FOX9. This guy pumps up the volume in any room he enters & he has a heart of gold. A big loss for us as he & his wife move closer to family in Detroit. Whether it’s @Vikings @GopherFootball, Hobie brings the fun. 😢

The way he could turn a phrase. He had the most unique sense of humor and he helped us laugh whenever he was near. We miss him dearly.
Today we remember our dear colleague @FrazierFox9. It’s been three years since we lost our beloved friend to cancer. We still miss his quirkiness, his laughter and his love. What an incredible friend he was to all of us at @FOX9 and everyone he met.

Thanks to all the teachers out there! We have a 13 yr old, 9 yr old and 4 yr old. All their teachers have gone above and beyond. The pic below is of our son’s first google meet with his teacher and classmates. Happiest we’ve seen him in weeks. 😁📚💪

After watching 24+ hours of coverage and judgment of the Simone Biles decision, I can’t help but wonder why people can’t just talk less and listen more. It seems to me, the only people qualified to talk about fear in facing these routines are the ones performing them.

Wow, way to go Hurt Family!.
WOW! A bear was spotted swimming in a northern #Wisconsin lake with plastic jug over its head. Thankfully, the cub was rescued by family boating. MRT via @nbc15_madison (my old station in Madison, #WI) . safe and alive. 📹Video courtesy of Hurt Family.
