September Rolls…Cold Weather Break…License To Feel Ill…ETC

It’s been pretty mild temperature-wise here. The first part of September is giving us the gift of highs in the 60s/low 70s, and at night we’re hitting below 50 degrees. That’s…amore. We’re nearly 10 days into September and that train keeps rolling. Kids have been in school since mid August around here and that just […]

It’s Time To Move On…It’s Time To Get Going

It’s feeling better around here. Things are starting to settle into our new normal and it feels good. There’s still things that need to be done, like painting and installing a cabinet in the main bath so our daughter can store all of her hair and make-up products. The spare room downstairs needs some shelving […]

Getting Better

The summer of 2025 will be known as the summer of change; some good, some difficult, and some that remind you to never get too comfortable in the current situation. I won’t rehash it, because more than likely if you’re reading this then you are probably a semi-regular patron of this page and I’m sure […]

Work Space

Man, it’s been a very long time since I’ve had a solid work space at home. I’ve had several spots over the course of the last few years, but nothing that didn’t require moving this or that around in order to make things in that one space. My old spot, since before we had kids, […]

What Timeline Is This?

I remember being a little kid growing up in the 70s and 80s with the general rule of thumb being that Nazis were bad. They were the bad guys in most movies about WWII(unless it was about the war in the Pacific), they were a scourge across Europe conquering countries and taking them over. They […]

Funk #4,999

The brain is a tricky beast. You don’t often think about the brain getting fatigue, much like say your calves or forearms after a strenuous workout. Or hell, maybe you do. I don’t, anyways. I’ve been dealing with anxiety and panic attacks for over 10 years now, so I’ve gotten used to what they feel […]

The Hits Keep Hitting

I think I’ve gotten to the point this summer that I’m done complaining. It seems the more you complain the more the universe wants to mess with you. What’s the phrase? “The squeaky wheel gets the grease”? Yeah, well the universe is greasing me up real good this year. But hey, we’re all alive and […]

Instrumental

Music has always been my escape. It’s been a soundtrack to life, both in good and bad times. It’s helped define for me who I am and what I want to spend my free time within. It was the thing that gave me purpose, and something to help me connect to others when my introverted […]

“I’m Going Through Changes”

It’s been a weird year so far. No big vacations, no big events like graduations, and nothing standing out as monumental. It’s been quiet, but not in a peaceful sort of way. The last two months have been dominated by health issues our daughter’s been dealing with, and the last two weeks were by far […]

Friday Reprieve(Requiem For A Nightmare)

This has been one hell of a ride, reality. I get it, we humans are tough and can take whatever God/Satan/Medical Emergencies/Baphomet can throw at us. But man, these last 9 to 10 days have been pitching some seriously dangerous fast balls at my head and landing quite a few of them. I’m not going […]
