Day 21,462

It is Monday morning, and I’ve got a couple of things going on this 20th day of June. First, and most importantly, today is my son’s 21st birthday, and it is a partial prep/partial day off for me. In some parts of the country, it is a full national holiday, as we celebrate Juneteenth, the …

Good morning! It is Sunday, June 19, 2022, and today is Fathers’ Day in the US. It’s going to be a good one, and it’s going o to be a hot one. My wife and kids are going to spoil me today, and I’ll respectfully relish every moment. Lisa got up early and got some …

Day 21,456

It is Tuesday morning, and I’m already wondering what we’re going to have for dinner, on this 14th day of June. Tuesdays have been a good day for tacos, and there’s a place on the edge of town with a dollar taco special. Gears are grinding. I generally start off my blog posts by going …

Day 21,455

It is Monday morning, and my internal training event starts in a couple of hours. It is the 13th of June, and a week away from my son’s 21st birthday. These days, many Americans have familiarized themselves with the acronym, “RWNJ”… which stands for “Right-wing nut job”. Historically, they just stood around in wearing shirts …

Day 21,453

It is Saturday night, a bit warmish late evening on this 11th day of June. It’s still 85 degrees outside at 9:33 PM. It has been a day. So, as I mentioned yesterday, we are currently without television, but that’s certainly not to say that we’re without media. Lisa is back in our bedroom watching …
