Every once in a while, just as you think you are figuring life out and all it has to give you, from nowhere, you’re thrown a curveball that makes you stand back and ponder. It comes in many forms and can be something very inward or openly involving others. One such moment happened to me…
Like just about everything in the world these days, there is a great divide over whether you support Will Smith or Chris Rock and the Oscars 2022 Incident. As crazy as it was to see it happen on live tv, we shouldn’t be astonished that it happened. We all thought it was fake at first….
Outside of being busy, I’ve neglected writing and the mind is beginning to get full of opinions to mumble about. So much so, I feel I’m walking around irritated about current events and wishing I was of an age to do something about it. Nothing more is on my mind than the madman in Russia,…
Dad and I had a good conversation this morning over coffee due to a couple of noteworthy news items over the last couple of days. Later in the morning Jen and I had another discussion about the same thing with a slightly different outcome. The difference in discussion is a reflection of what I feel…
As many know, Jen and I spent the second half of 2021 fully engaged in a total transformation of our grounds and recapturing a game room by converting the garage. We literally no sooner had the last landscaper leave as we had kids show up for Christmas week. Whew, and what a week it was….

On January 6th, while Congress was discharging their duty of the electoral vote certification and declaration of the president and vice-president of the United States,…
Talking about mumbling under your breath, this whole antivaxxer and anti-mask wearing thing has gotten out of hand. The claim is it infringes on their civil liberties and their God given rights. First, God didn’t give any rights to people. Man has given rights to people and taken them away as well. God has nothing…
I’ve been thinking a lot about ethics. I watch daily the catastrophe in politics both Nationally and Statewide. I’m so disappointed in the lack of ethics by those that are supposed to be the ones setting examples. These are also many of the people deciding what the quality of life will be for many under…
Okay, I’m going to go there. In this country, more so than any other country, we experience mass shooting crimes or crimes by deadly force at an alarming rate.
