I started this writing thing because I got tired of the irritation experienced from bottling things up. Back, many years ago, I went through a divorce. During that process, I was asked to go to a counselor for some reason that is unclear to me, then and now. The marriage was over, if anyone knows…
Lately, much to my disappointment, everyone seems to be annoying me. That guy driving ten miles a hour under the speed limit, the fifteenth scam call of the day, asking my wife a question and her thinking my motive for asking be different then the real reason. It’s even been Lucy the Wonder Dog not…
Her we are again. Four years ago, we had just suffered the worst presidential reign of all time. So bad that now, “The Donald” has a new nickname, Donald “Hoover” Trump. Hoover, of course referring to the long considered worst president in history, Herbert Hoover. It is so perfect that nicknames are being thrown around…
Or as the Gullah spelling shown was D’fuskie. The island has been inhabited for thousands of years though most of that time was by numerous Indian tribes and mostly the Muscogee tribe which also provided the name meaning sharp feather describing the shape of the island. The Spanish date back to the 1500’s as having…
In all the travelling we have done, we never ventured to the deep south on a vacation. I’m not sure what we expected to see, taste, or experience, but it’s nothing like the imagination you build. Oh sure, we’ve flown in and out of Atlanta airport, but it hardly is representative of the south. I…

As a result of my daughter realizing a perspective that she doesn’t want to lose either of us, she has had this urgent message to Jen and…
Six weeks from getting sliced and diced and put back together with screws, rods and a little bubblegum and bailing wire to finish it off. Last week, we had my first follow-up exam, and everything seems to be on track and might even be a little ahead of normal. Now allowed to bend, twist, and…
Three years ago, this month, I decided to create a blog site as a mental health experiment and an opportunity to release the annoyance of thoughts floating around in my head without the ability to fixate on any one particular item. Things that didn’t deserve the time in occupying mind space and they needed a…
About half of every day, I shake my head at what is going on in America. More specifically the Republican Party politics until I think about things and realize both sides are playing games with our country. Politics is so filled with buffoonish characters that I struggle to understand how any reasonable minded person could…
