Day 19,855

It’s Saturday night, and everybody around here is just about pooped, meaning tired. Lot’s of unpacking and reordering going on today as we continue the process of settling into the new home. One of my principal goals was to get our internet setup for our use today. Looks like it is installed and working adequately. …

Day 19,854

Today hasn’t been my best effort. I’m being grumpy. This afternoon, I was supposed to meet with our propane guy at two o’clock. About four thirty I received a call from the propane company letting me know he wasn’t going to make it today. Part of me really wanted to retort, “Well, then, what’s the …

It’s Thursday, January 25, 2018. I’ve got another module to teach in my Internet INformation Server class today, then after that I get ready to rock! So, to clue you youngsters in, that means that fat old bald guy is going to head over to the Uptown Theater in Kansas City and see a show, …

Day 19,852

It’s late in the afternoon here at my workplace, Centriq Training, in Leawood. Lisa and I talked a little bit about the changes we’re experiencing living out in the country. The stars are brighter, the neighborhood quieter, and the water oh so sweet. I think the kids are adapting well… Dane and Gracie have their …

Day 19,851

I’m going to try and whip out a new blog entry before I hit the road. Class got done a little early, so why not take advantage, and write up today’s missive before I hit the road. Class is going fine this week, no complaints, although I’m having a bit of trouble hearing them. Might be …

Hey gang, old grampa Bob here. We’re in the new house. Lots to do, and I to be frank, I ought to be a little more on the ball. Everybody is holding up their end of the workload, and I need to be a little bit less of a shit and get to work. These …

Day 19,848

I really thought today was going to be a better day.  It’s fair to say that everybody in the house is very aware of my level of frustration. I hope I haven’t taken it out on my family more than I have. To be honest, I’ve bottled up my frustration better than I thought I …

Day 19,847

OK, so let’s talk about some surreal stuff, OK? This is the first night here in the new place. It’s been a little strange for me, as any big, serious change is want to be. We’ve got house, we’ve got barn, we’ve got land. We have pond, we have pool. And there is also very …

Day 19,846

Breaking up my routine a bit today. I usually write my blog entries at night, before I go to bed, but today is moving day, and I’ll be sleeping in a motel tonight, with three other humans and two dogs in one room. I’m teaching today, as I usually do during the week, with the …
