Hey gang, it’s been a Monday around here… at least my casserole turned out. Seriously, I’ve got a 45-60 minute webinar on Wednesday, and I’ve been putting a day into it. I’ll feel a lot better about it after I get the whole thing over with. My enthusiasm for writing tonight isn’t at a peak. …

Day 20,166
It’s a cool, crisp Sunday evening in rural Douglas County. My lovely bride has been doing Christmas stuff with the daughters all afternoon, while I braved the downstairs living room to watch the Chiefs-Raiders game while Dane worked on setting up his new computer in the background. My lap served as a perch for several …

Day 20,165
What’s shakin’?I’m getting into the information gathering process for a webinar I’m going on Wednesday of this coming week, and I do like the opportunity to shw off some of the new features in a new or updated product. So, as I’ve mentioned before, I’m a Microsoft Certified Trainer. I teach people how to work …

Day 20,164
This is my update for November 30, 2018. I would absolutely love to post this to my blog site as I write it, but apparently there is some sort of issue with either my DNS, my ISP, or my blog-hosting site that is preventing me from properly connecting and allowing me to post my daily …

Good evening, every body! Fat old Grampa Bob here on a beautiful, crisp November night. The clock just rolled over to 9:00 PM.

Day 20,161
One of the things , one of my many flaws, is that I get attached to my vehicles, and my daily driver is sick. Ruby needs a fuel pump. That almost sounds like a lyric to a bad country song. Yeah, my brain goes there sometimes. I remember now my first college English teacher, Nancy …

Day 20,160
Good evening friends and future family members, it’s the old man again, dropping a clue here and there as to what’s happening in my slightly-above-average life on this fine day in November. It was cold this morning. And dangerous. Had to drive in to Leawood this morning for work, and stretches of the highway that …

Day 20,159
The snow came down today in rural Douglas County, 4-6 inches according to the weather reports. It was coming down as ice and snow today… and guess what? Tomorrow the expected high is 54 degrees, so all of it will melt off. It’s kind of crazy… that’s Kansas weather. They’ve already called off school for …

Day 20,158
It’s been a semi-eventful day here in rural Douglas County. Started of the day in a positive way, with a great breakfast, courtesy of my beloved Lisa. Then… well… things went a little downhill. I offered to go into town on a grocery run. I do love a good turkey sandwich after Thanksgiving, and I …
