Day 21,515

Today is Friday, 12 August 2022. I am very happy not to be someone today. The person I am happy not to be is former president Donald J. Trump. He’s having a rough week, and it will likely get even worse today. There’s going to be a lot of speculation about the documents and materials …

Day 21,514

It is Thursday morning, 11 August 2022. I’m going to get this cranked out, because I have a talk in a couple of hours (closer to 3, actually) on a subject that is not my strongest. Every technical instructor has a gap here and there, and I am not a database administrator… so some database …

It is Tuesday morning, 9 August 2022. I am happy, healthy, awake, and looking forward to my first cup of coffee just as soon as the coffee maker completes the cycle. Some people pour their first cup of coffee as soon as there is enough coffee in the pot to fill a cup …. sociopaths! …

Day 21,509

It is Saturday morning, 6 August 2022. I am quietly sitting in my recliner couch, Freya sitting beside me, Rosy perched on my shin bone. (Just as I typed that, Rosy jumped off… she must’ve smelled something stackable in the kitchen). Today is going to be a mowing day. After work yesterday, I loaded up …

Day 21,508

It is Friday morning, 5 August 2022. I’ve got some work to get done today, starting with a two-hour stint with my cloud solutions architecture course, then a smattering of meetings spread throughout the day. I get a chance to look forward to spending a portion of my day tomorrow on the lawn mower, as …

Day 21,507

It is Thursday morning, and this week seems to be flying by. It seems August 1 was just a few days ago… and it was… today is 4 August 2022. There is so much going on in the world right now. Politicians traveling to foreign countries, revelations about the Secret Service and Department of Defense …

Day 21,506

It is Wednesday morning, 3 August 2022. A little bit of news on the local front. The vote to amend the Kansas constitution went “No” and it was a resounding, winning by almost 20% with the largest primary voter turnout in Kansas history. So… what did we learn? I think we learned that women can …
