Day 19,755
Hey kids! Just getting my note for the night in before it gets too late. To be honest with you all, it’s Thursday night, and the Kansas City Chiefs are playing at the Oakland Raiders, so I’m more than a little bit distracted. Chiefs have a 27-21 lead here in the 3rd quarter, so I’m …

Day 19,754
Hey, future people! So, another interesting day here in 2017. I hope you guys are taking notes. When I was a kid, we’d always got one assignment having to do with interviewing a grandparent over some sort of historically relevant subject. Maybe one day, you’ll have to do an assignment about this time in history. I’m …

Day 19,753
I’m sitting here thinking about what kind of topic I’d like to address to you guys, and I start pondering about time and space, and all kinds of other weird stuff. I write these daily, but for all I know you guys are reading through these, entry after entry after entry, taking everything in all …

Hey kids… old fat Grampa Bob trying to be less of a reprehensible human today than what I was yesterday. In your lives, you are going to come across and interact with a lot of people, unless of course, you choose to hide in your basement away from anything remotely involving social interaction. If you …

Hey kids. Grampa would really like to be brief tonight, but two hundred words is still two hundred words, so here we go. Last night I wrote about humility and being humble. Today I watched an example of lack of humility. I remember a running back named Barry Sanders. Barry lived by a little mantra …

Day 19,750
OK, so it’s fat, old Grampa Bob trying to lay down a little bit of something to thnk about. How about we address the idea of humility? A popular song on the radio (yes, we still have radio in 2017) is a song by Tim McGraw called “Humble and Kind”. You should look it up and …

Day 19,749
Hey kids, it’s Friday night and the end of another work week. Grampa Bob was teaching people how to get some things done in the Microsoft Office 365 environment, and things went pretty well for the most part, with an occasional issue directly related to the “moving target” characteristics of a service that changes at …

Day 19,748
Hey, future grandkids, what’s shakin’? Sometimes you are going to deal with situations that are really out of your control, for one reason or another, things are not going to go in the direction you would prefer. This week I’m teaching a class that is centered on services being provided by a different organization. An organization …

Day 19,747
OK. It’s a Wednesday night, and I’m trying to think of something worth chatting about with my future grandkids… and believe it or not, I’ve been doing a little thinking, a little pondering, and little cerebral ping pong. Let me ask you this… what did you guys do today to try and make yourself a …

Day 19,746
Hi, kids. Today, I’m going to jump right on in, and come clean early in this little blog post. I’m tired. When I have prep weeks, I don’t have to worry too much about getting up early and driving an hour to work to embrace the day. I get to sleep in a little more, …
