Day 19,639
It’s been a day of daydreams with Lisa today, and the day is still fairly young. I decided to sneak downstairs for a bit. The boy is sanding the ceiling in the kitchen, and the dust gets to me. I normally write a little later in the day, but I figured the sooner I get …

Day 19,638
As part of my #WriteChain pledge, I’ve sort of made a promise to write 200 words per day and keep my blog up to date. I’m kind of taken aback that I have yet to write “200 words” and made that count. There’s the little ways of cheating where I could say, hey, I’m averaging two …

Day 19,637
Kind of crazy sometimes how fast things can change. We put our house on the market last month, and we accepted an offer the other day. Today, we put an offer on the house we’ve had our eye on for some time. The offer was accepted a few hours ago. We’re getting new digs. Wife …

Day 19,636
I am not at my best when I am tired. That might be my understatement of the year. I get apathetic and grumpy, and I don’t snap out of it right away. It just becomes a really good day to avoid how I really feel on social media, as I end up saying things that …

Day 19,635
On New Year’s Eve, 1996, I became a father for the first time. Bonnie changed my life in all of the right ways. My beautiful red-headed girl. On July 23, 1998, I became a father for the second time. Gracie was almost 11 lbs when she was born, looking like two loaves of uncooked bread. …

Day 19,634
A day of interesting possibilities.. not bad for a Monday. The day started off with our realtor coming by with someone interested in submitting a bid for new carpeting, for the house. I probably could’ve been a little more lively when they came by, but it was unexpected. We were focused on getting our ducks …

Day 19,633
I kind of went off on a bit of a tangent today, and paused to recall a bit of trivia about Robert Fulghum, the author of the book “All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten”. Mr. Fulghum (who I would like to think as more of a ‘Bob’ guy), once wrote about …

Day 19,632
It’s been a good day. Kind of celebrated Father’s Day a day early here. My wife is jetting off to Washington, DC for a short trip tomorrow, so we did a little bit of a recognition around here late this afternoon, after Dane & I got back from a gaming day in Topeka, and before the …

Day 19,631
I don’t consider myself an “alpha”. I’ll step up when someone needs to step up, but I’ll be the first to admit that when faced with some jackhammer that thinks he has something to prove, I’ll gladly step aside. There have been more than a couple of times in this existence that I should have …

Day 19,630
“This is no social crisis Just another tricky day for you” – The Who There’s a weird kind of stillness in my environment right now. Almost like a calm before the storm. Left-leaning folks and right-leaning folks seem to building up the tension, like fans on two sides of a soccer match, waiting for something …
