Day 21,298

It is a Friday, January 7, 2022. I don’t have a class today, as just about all of my classes have moved to a four-day format, and today I have a number of meetings to attend, starting with a casual “come as you are” chat with my fellow trainers here in about ten minutes. Coffee …

Day 21,297

It is January 6, 2022. A year ago today, a sitting president, defeated in his attempt for re-election, organized protestors in an effort to overturn a lawful election. It was not the best moment in the history of this country. No matter what policies his administration implemented that may have had a net positive effect, …

Day 21,296

It is Wednesday, January 5, 2022, and baby, it’s cold outside. 15 degrees according to my little weather station – I’ve got an Accurite weather station that ties into a weather crowd-sourcing app, Wunderground.com (Weather Underground). I’m not expecting a lot of drama today. There will be a lot of discussion in the news about …

Day 21,295

Good morning! It is Tuesday, January 4, 2022. It is early, but I made that choice… or more likely, my bladder wanted to get up and I decided to go along with it for now. The weight-loss plan I’m on right now cuts carbs and increases water consumption. I have not been properly hydrating for …

Day 21,294

Today is January 3rd, 2022. Funny… I almost kept adding “twos” to the end of the date. This is the first day of my “renewal”. Generally speaking, January 1st really isn’t the best day to start on a new path and rededicating oneself to goal setting and finding some balance, primarily due to my desire …

Day 21,293

The end of my holiday break… tomorrow, I’ll get up bright-eyed and bushy-tailed to resume my role as a trainer for a really great company, and, no, I don’t write that just because this is my public blog and I might have co-workers or customers read it. I’m a very happy person, professionally speaking. Just …

Day 21,292

Today is January 1, 2022. It is the first day of the new year, and I’m settling in with some barbeque, little smokies, and later on, there will likely be a Manhattan added to the mix. Snow and sleet have graced us with a small coat of nature’s WD-40 on the roads. We’re going to …

Day 21,291

Eight thousand, seven hundred, and nine days left if my life is of average length. I’m off to a decent start. Today is my oldest daughter’s 25th birthday, and we’re going to go out to lunch after bit, along with the youngest of my three kids, my son, Dane. I think sushi will be on …

Day 21,290

It is Thursday morning, December 30, 2021. The new year is right around the corner, and I’m keeping one eye on the weather, one eye on the Omicron variant of the coronavirus, and one eye on my wife sitting next to me… she can be kind of sneaky, so I need to be prepared for …

Day 21,289

Yeah, it’s a Wednesday. This is the 21,289th day of my existence on this realm of existence. It has been a good day. Had a nice poke bowl for lunch, and some barbecue for dinner, with burnt ends and pulled pork. I prefer the hot barbecue sauce. I’ve been thinking about the pandemic a little …
