It is Wednesday, 9 November 2022. Right now I’ve got the news on, and they are reviewing the election results – at least the ones they can review – and it doesn’t look like there was a wave or a tsunami or whatever people wanted to call it. Right now it looks like not much …

Good morning. It is the 8th day of November 2022. It is election day in the United States, and I’m already tired of this day. Seriously. Elections suck all the air out of the room. The money spent on elections could feed the hungry and house the homeless. There are enough lies told (legally) to …

Good morning! It is 7 November 2022, the first Monday of this eleventh month of 2022. It is hard to believe that 2023 is just around the corner – that year I will turn 60. I stayed up a little late last night watching Sunday Night Football – the Kansas City Chiefs hosted the Tennessee …

Woot! I like round numbers. Today is Saturday, 5 November 2022. I missed yesterday when I was feeling under the weather most of the day – although I will admit that despite my discomfort, I found a way to make it a pretty productive day… I just didn’t write my blog. So here I am …

Good morning! It is 3 November 2022, a beautiful Thursday morning, with a sunrise breaking across the horizon with slate blues, sharp orange-pink highlights, and just enough purple to spark the imagination. I voted yesterday. If you are an American citizen, I would encourage you to vote. Just one to a customer, thank you. I …

The news is on in the background, coffee is brewing, and an improvised meatloaf-bacon-and-egg sandwich awaits me in a moment. It’s about time for me to turn the news off. Just about everything I see makes me …

Good morning! It is Halloween! 31 October 2022. It’s also payday, so I’ll focus on the day’s good news. Somewhere nearby there’s an accident or medical emergency going on. Lisa and I heard multiple emergency vehicle sirens outside. Not sure what is going on, it doesn’t appear to be on our little side road. All …

Happy Friday! It is 28 October 2022, and my wife returns home later today. One thing I have noticed over the last couple of days/nights. Our dogs – Lucy, Freya, Odin, Rosy, and Lily – behave rather differently when my wife is away. I think they are a little depressed, and a little less energetic …

Good morning! It is Thursday, 27 October 2022. Lisa is out of town, and let me tell you, the dogs missed her last night. Lots of activity and noise at night, random acts of barking, and I’ll likely stumble across a mess somewhere. Not much going on, really. I’ve got a pot of coffee going, …

It is Wednesday morning, and I need to keep an eye on the pooches today – 26 October 2022. This morning my wife left on a business trip, and the dogs are not happy with her absence. Odin has been a whimpering boy for the last hour or so since Lisa left. All five of …
