Good morning, folks! It is the first day of February in the Year of Our Lord 2023… otherwise, it’s 1 Feb 2023. A new month, a new set of goals, and new opportunity. I’m starting off this day with some gratitude. I have so much to be thankful for. Yesterday I renewed my certified trainer …

Day 21,687
It is Tuesday morning, January 31st, the last day of the month, and, happily, payday. Today is going to be an interesting day. I started a new course yesterday, Pacific Standard Time rather than Eastern or Central, working with an old friend. I am a little worried that some of the folks taking this course …

Day 21,686
Good morning, folks! It is Monday, 30 January 2023. I am back in my virtual classroom again this week, and my class is running on west coast time, so I’ve got a little more “morning” in my morning, with my class beginning at 11:00 AM, rather than the typical 8:00 (East Coast) or 9:00 (Central). …

Day 21,683
Good morning, and a Happy Friday to you all! It is 27 January 2023, the last Friday of this first month of 2023, the last day of my blended learning class, and the beginning of an exciting weekend.

Day 21,682
It is Thursday morning, 26 January 2023. I have today and tomorrow remaining in my month-long blended learning course. Yesterday my training partner was ill – not entirely unexpected as I knew she was under the weather the previous afternoon – and an old friend jumped in to fill the gap and provide some cover. …

Day 21,681
It is Wednesday! 25 January 2023… and I just realized that I forgot to post something last night for work. Guess what I’m going to do just as soon as I’m done with this little blurb? Yesterday was a good day. I’m glad I wrote yesterday’s post about validation. I’m 59, and it’s about time …

Day 21,680
Good morning… well, “good” might be subjective, but in my time zone, at least the concept of “morning” isn’t subject to debate. It is 5:53 AM in the midwest, this 24th day of January 2023, one week remaining in the first month of the year. For a few days now, a word has been at …

Day 21,679
Monday! Monday! Monday! It is 23 January 2023, and as I have shared with you before, I usually write my blog during the week and take the weekend off. My sports fan weekend had mixed results, with Kansas coming up way short against TCU on Saturday’s early game, but the NFL playoff results went just …

Day 21,676
It is Friday! The last day of this work week, 20 January 2023. There is a lot going on in the world this morning that is getting a little bit of my attention, everything from kids shooting teachers, Ukraine and the Russian conflict, the world economy, and various issues orbiting the topics of gender and …

Day 21,675
Thursday morning, 19 January 2023. Yesterday was a scary day at work. My employer, a pretty good tech company, announced layoffs. That is never fun, and a lot of folks were on edge around the virtual workspace, and later in the day, I did discover a couple of my coworkers that I call friends were …
