As the #buffaloblizzard2022 continues (but is closer to the end), Gobee and me continue our hibernation. I’m blessed because I have heat, electricity and a feisty feline to keep me warm. Christmas 2022 was not what I expected (or wanted), but I can’t really complain. I continue to send prayers, good wishes and healing thoughts to those that have been severely impacted by this storm. Much love ❤️❤️❤️❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CmodD26Oxh5KovfeWfdgWZKSvinnRQhw87SPGc0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Starting my day off working from home, and Gobee decided to sit in my chair. What would this cat do as HR Director? #workfromhome #hr #gobeegehl #gobeeadventures https://www.instagram.com/p/CmZB12OuOeb_TRKxMIHRZOgbcUiiUN7Qczd8q80/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

What a blessing it was to have us three Gehls successfully participate in yesterday’s Turkey Trot. Very thankful and grateful for our health. #gratitude #healthy #turkeytrot (at Buffalo Niagara Convention Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClYbtiNO2rz94VtcIzOGpe64b-eVWgcnSdr2g40/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finished the Turkey Trot. I think my time is about 5 minutes slower than the last time I ran in 2019. Not bad for a middle aged dude. #turkeytrot #thisis45 #thanksgiving (at Buffalo Niagara Convention Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClWRobGOeVQ8l3VLz4bv00CfgcPpYbFc8feZiY0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I voted last night, but was too tired to post a picture. I encourage everyone that can to vote. You can have an impact on the world in which you live. #vote #decision2022 https://www.instagram.com/p/CkdU05MulhuTYEnQEYOraWYcHwKp8e5haqtOyc0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

How many times have I taken a picture like this? Happy National Cat Day to Gobee. Providing me with love, support and companionship since 2009. #nationalcatday #gobeegehl #gobeeadventures https://www.instagram.com/p/CkTpmU7unSili8qVM2ku5fau3CBa0HvWou6izs0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I officially return to the office tomorrow and Gobee is not excited. He knows it may be several days before we can cuddle like this again. #gobeegehl #gobeeadventures #blackandwhitecatsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CjjT7c_rlOF7dcJTmEKSRqh-hM_KDzJYZj_VD00/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Officiating my cousin Dupe’s vow exchange has been my favorite moment of 2022. Dupe and her husband David are an inspirational couple and I’m privileged to have been a part of their special day. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci0WVWXulY-uPLNz5G17p_arnoF40xiMenhX2o0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I was sworn in as President of the Buffalo Niagara Human Resources Association this morning. Two incredible women who made an impact on my HR career were there. A big thank you to Amy Cortese (@a.me.cortes.e), who gave my first job in HR (and also took this picture). Another thank you goes to Lauren Lewis (@laurlew29), who mentored me this past year as she served her final year as President. I’m proud to be in this role as both a gay and black man, and I hope that I can encourage and inspire those that may have not seen themselves in this field to consider a career in HR. #hr #bnhra #president #board (at Foundry Suites Hotel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CixqNSkODkDLXauT1bnE8YAu_ey19zyEpGeg640/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy Friday! Feeling a bit better each day, and will be working from home again. #selfie #fridayappreciationpost #thisis44 https://www.instagram.com/p/CiSJSUQuJ53HczuZBQ3ed6BSRJ5Rx76xcPxou00/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’m under the weather, so Gobee is providing comfort and letting me know who’s boss #gobeegehl #gobeeadventures #blackandwhitecatsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CiOlLd1OgEV0FGTe8S0HoN9Yl44EZkZhNXOpW40/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
