“People post some pretty ignorant shit on social media” Simple expression. Pretty easy to prove. And it’s an expression that can stir up some strong emotions apparently. An old friend (well, that person may not be calling me that after today) reposted a political meme that had zero facts in it other than possible spelling …

Day 20,564
It’s been a Saturday. Started off the day with a piece of sad news regarding my friend Carole in Wichita. She was a coworker when I first started in technical training, and she’s the one the originally started calling me the Bobster – and it stuck. Today she passed along that her husband had passed, …

Day 20,563
It’s Friday night. I didn’t write yesterday, as we were kicking back and enjoying some family time. Today I have been a bit under the weather, with some nasty chest congestion and a serious headache. Here in another half an hour we’ll head off to go pick up Dane at the train station in Kansas …

Day 20,561
It’s a new day, a new year in rural Douglas County. I’m going to uphold my pledge and crank out a blog entry, then go back to watching football. I’ve been taking a break from my keto life, eating some of the delectables that somehow find their way onto snack trays here at the house. …

Day 20,560
It’s New Year’s Eve in rural Douglas County. Lisa and I enjoyed a dinner out tonight. Kind of weird, with none of our kids around on this night, especially after so many years of skipping New Year’s Eve in favor of Bonnie’s Birthday. I recall that crazy night 23 years ago when my Bonbon was …

Day 20,559
It’s Monday night, and I’m just going to crank out a few words before I call it a night. Dane has to go to the train station early tomorrow morning, and I’ve got to get up before the crack of dawn to get the boy to the station so he can spend New Year’s Eve …

Day 20,558
It’s a Sunday night in rural Douglas County, and the snow is gently falling after a late week surge of unseasonably warm temperatures in the 50’s and 60’s, with a tickle of 70 on Christmas Day. Today was a good day for me as a sports fan. The Kansas City Chiefs won their final home …

Day 20,557
Saturday night in rural Douglas County, and I’m enjoying a little downtime today, no need to focus on work-related stuff, nor a lot of things requiring my attention. I do have a workbench for the barn I probably ought to put together sometime soon, but it’s not currently screaming at me for attention, so it …

Day 20,555
Hey, it’s the day after Christmas, and tonight will be better served as a shorter night rather than a longer one. I’m just sitting around the house tonight, thankful that the propane truck showed up to add some gas to our tank. I would love to say that my propane company is as prompt and …

Day 20,553
Wow. It’s Christmas Eve, and I haven’t been paying very good attention to my writing the last couple of days. Tomorrow will be a day to spend with family and some friends, but tonight, it has fallen quiet in our household. Lisa has already gone off to get ready for bed, and I just don’t …
