Day 19,802

Good evening, whoever you are, wherever you are. Today was a bit of a special day. We had the inspection of the new house. Spent a couple of hours checking the outlets, firing up the stove, filling up the bathtub, turning on the showers, looking at the trim, and checking that all of the garage …

Day 19,801

Time to reflect on the day and think about what I did or didn’t do that is worthy of any sort of archive. Not much today, really. Went to the dentist this morning to get my teeth cleaned and get a check-up. I’m not a good person when it comes to going to the dentist …

Day 19,800

Every day we’re getting closer to closing and moving. It’s kind of crazy. I’ve lived in this house longer than I have lived in any house in my life. Obviously, the same goes for all of the kids. Might even be the same situation for my wife, but if it is, I don’t recall her …

Day 19,799

It’s a Saturday night in Lawrence, Gramma has already gone to bed, it’s just about ten o’clock, and the tv is on. It’s going to be a stream of thought kind of night. Right now I am grateful for comprehensive spell-checking, because I have no idea what my bog would look like if I didn’t have something …

Day 19,798

It’s a Friday night in Lawrence. It’s been an interesting day here in the world. Looks like the Trump administration’s former national security advisor has pled guilty to at least one charge of lying (one charge relating to multiple instances). I imagine there are some boots shaking in the District of Columbia tonight. Can’t come …

Day 19,797

Hi gang… whoever you might be tonight. I started writing on a daily basis earlier this year. I came across a twitter feed called ‘Writerology’, and they had what they called a #WriteChain challenge. You pledge to write on a daily basis. In my case, I thought it would make a good exercise, but I …

Day 19,796

I spent a little time today reading about blogs, and ideas for blog entries, and on the first page, I came across a quote by Anais Nin. I can’t recall the specific quote, but I came across one that I thought was rather relevant – “We don’t see things as they are, we see them as …

Day 19,795

OK. Today I stopped and thought about a lot of things, and also found a way to get some of the things I had to get done in support of our prospective move. We have the new roof going on the house in the next couple of days.  I need to spend a little more …

Day 19,794

So, what shall we talk about today? The idiot in the White House recognized a couple of World War II Navajo Code Talkers today, and somehow in his feeble little mind, came to the conclusion that using a racial slur was a good idea. Please, I hope this international nightmare that is the Trump administration …

Day 19,793

OK… let me think. What kind of message do I want to leave to my future grandkids today. Don’t get too hung up on being a sports fan. Your team will eventually let you down. I’m a bit grumpy. In professional football, the team I adore, the Kansas City Chiefs, started off the season 5-0. …
