I’m really glad it didn’t snow here this weekend. (It actually did snow at the higher elevations, just not in a way that affected most of “life”.) I love coffee, but only if it has sugar in it. This is a weakness, but at least I don’t smoke, or drink alcohol, or use drugs. So, […]
So, I bought a brand new iPad about three months ago, when New Job 2.0 was the Thing. I also bought an Apple combination of the two is an amazing thing. I love to take notes (Good Notes 2), draw (Procreate app), play chess (chess.com app), and read books on it. But I prefer to […]
I respect the weather systems God has put into play. I understand and appreciate the majesty and importance of snow in our ecosystem. But, snow sure causes me a a lot of problems. It costs me money when the power goes out. It stresses me because I don’t know how long I can trust my […]
Back in May, I left Old Job to go to New Job. That was a disaster. I didn’t have a lot of choice when I made the decision, but as time went on – and it didn’t take long – it became obvious that New Job was not a fit. I didn’t know what I […]
There have been many days in the past six months where I have been very unconvinced of my intellectual capability to deal with the situations I faced. I just don’t feel smart enough.

Hypothetically, let’s just say that he believes it is almost impossible for human beings to use alcohol without falling into some type of inappropriate behavior or addiction. Hypothetically, let’s just say […]
Dear Friend, My motto for life is “Trust nobody.” I’ve probably misspoke it many times and said “I don’t trust anybody.” At the core, that is indeed the emotion. But I do trust a few people. I trust my wife. I trust my Mom and my Dad. I trust Jesus. I trust God, though the […]
This post is going to be very easily misunderstood. #disclaimer It occurred to me this morning that social media has created an unconscious bragging mentality. Home runs. Scholarships. New cars. Great friends. Trips to races and professional sporting events. Travel to Hawaii. Vacations in Miami or the Bahamas. New jobs. School awards. Report cards. Surgeries. […]
Life is such a blur right now. The Eldest is driving. The Youngest is now a teen. The Mother-in-Law just had surgery. The Wife’s friend just had a severe stroke. The Eldest is dating a girl who lives an hour away. (Except for that hour, I am absolutely tickled pink with this particular relationship. She […]
