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. I love the quiet of the morning. I also love this time of year…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 12.2.2018
Journal Entry – 11.28.18
It is 4:37 AM on November 18th, 2018. I’m in Dallas Texas for the start of our annual sales training meeting which runs through Friday. Today is also my son’s birthday and I’m bummed I cannot be there. I woke up early for Dallas and very early for California time. The reason is I didn’t…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 11.28.18
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

Raccoons in the shed
On November 8th I forgot to close the door to my shed. On Friday November 9th I walked out, opened the door and found it was partially blocked and the entirety of my shed had been ransacked!! I thought I had been robbed! In my confusion I quickly turned to the most valuable items which…… Continue reading Raccoons in the shed
The End of Halloween 2018
Holiday season is upon us. Halloween came and went and Thanksgiving is just around the corner. I’m just slightly late in the time frame I like to buy Christmas presents; I really enjoy getting my two boys great gifts but must get them before they sell out. Being busy with the new job and our…… Continue reading The End of Halloween 2018
