Journal Entry – 12.8.2018
It is 4:44 AM on Saturday December 8th, 2018. I’ve had my wheat grass, made tea, meditated, responded to Facebook comments and updated WordPress to 2019 WordPress has changed the format quite a bit with this new release focusing on ‘blocks’ and changing theme to be more in line with mobile. I still prefer 2016…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 12.8.2018

I asked my son what the main thing you wanted for Christmas was and you told me Doggy Poop then clarified “fake doggy poop.” That made me laugh, especially because I had fake doggy poop when I was a kid. How did I know about fake doggy poop you ask? Well, the only advertising that…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 12.4.2018
Journal Entry – 12.2.2018
It is 7:23 on Sunday morning. The household is still asleep which is rare for this time but there is a 80% chance someone will wake up and be in the living room before 7:45 so I’m not left much time.

Won’t You Be My Neighbor? – Mr. Rogers
Won’t You Be My Neighbor? I finally was able to watch this documentary on a flight today and it made me realize how necessary Fred’s message of love, for being just the way you are, is in our current climate. For people of my generation we look back fondly on Mr. Rogers as it reminds…… Continue reading Won’t You Be My Neighbor? – Mr. Rogers

It is 5:23 AM on Tuesday November 27th. I’m at the airport on my way to another sales training. These trainings aren’t bad but I don’t really like having them right after the Thanksgiving holiday. The first is that it will cause me to miss my son’s birthday. The second is that it hangs over…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 11.27.2018
Thanksgiving 2018
It is 9:19 on the day after Thanksgiving. I usually like to write a post on Thanksgiving day but the fact that we had a party the night before put a damper on getting up early and writing. I did get up relatively early but had to clean up from the night before. Then it…… Continue reading Thanksgiving 2018
