Not much here today

It’s been a long, but good day. Took a day trip with the kids. Walked a lot. Had a fantastic dinner. Wanted to get this in so I could keep up my blogging streak. We’re almost to 1,000 days. One more day left of my break. I’m hoping to get something done tomorrow. Cheers.

Alarm in the morning

I woke a bit earlier than I should have this morning, so I decided to get some meditation in before beginning my day. I was just about under when I started hearing an alarm go off. No way that could be my phone alarm because it was about an hour earlier than it should have … Continue reading Alarm in the morning

Turns

A very wise young lady said to me today, “Security is good thing until it becomes complacency.” I think it’s natural to want certainty because that makes us feel secure. But security is an illusion. No matter now secure we feel in a given moment, an earthquake could hit and rock our world, literally. Who’s … Continue reading Turns

I can see

Trip to the eye doctor’s today. I feel like I can see again. My prescription actually is lower. So that started out a splendid day. Then, since I was in Twin, I went to Barnes and Noble and did some planning. I should have done for the full quarter, even though when I did my … Continue reading I can see

Any vampire books?

I’m watching a cheesy vampire movie tonight. It’s fun. I often get asked if I’ve written a vampire book. Oh, back in the day and I have a couple in my mind. Plus, I have my Weblinks comic which I do like the story behind. But, if I wrote something, it’s been cheesy fun like … Continue reading Any vampire books?

All over the place

I didn’t write first today. I had a bunch of other things to take care of today. I even reshuffled a couple errands to another day because I realized I had too much I wanted to do and everything took a fair amount of time. Good day though. I still got a good amount of … Continue reading All over the place

Highs and lows

I finished the back yard this morning. Still need to do the garden, but that will come later in the week. I’m glad I got the writing done before I went out to the yard. After I got washed up and had lunch, I painted and got several cards done. Afterwards, I did some bookkeeping. … Continue reading Highs and lows

The outdoor work begins

I’m here. I’m tired. I’m hoping I don’t wake up sore tomorrow. I’ve been doing yardwork today. I also took a half an hour ride on my bike. While the activity feels great, my body keeps screaming at me that I’m doing too much too soon. But, I figure next week is going to be … Continue reading The outdoor work begins

Pipe dreams

Today, there were two birds going in and out of the PVC pipe. They go forward with their plans. I knew that I needed to make my own plans. I wrote out a list of things that I need to get done next week. I have a full notepad page of tasks. I’m sure I’ll … Continue reading Pipe dreams

Risk in the pipe

For two nights now, I have watched this little bird building a nest. It just happens to be in a horrible spot. My neighbor is a plumber and drives home a company truck. On the back is a large PVC pipe strapped on and containing several smaller PVC pipes. It is in this tube that … Continue reading Risk in the pipe
