The Hardest Part

Reflecting back on my recent milestones of starting to feed myself and having reached 100 posts has caused me to realize my doing so was certainly a team effort. You’re support has definitely led to my success. Maybe not so much the eating part. I had my wife’s good cooking to motivate me to get…

Eat It!

Today I reached a personal milestone! It may not sound like much to you, but today, Sunday, October 15, 2023, I was able to feed myself!  Such a small task that everyone does so often they take it for granted. My wife had walked away from a plate full of french fry pieces she had…

Picture Wall

Jonell likes to hang pictures on the walls. When most people have photo albums of their pictures, usually grouped in the various stages of life. Jonell creates entire walls of those memories. She will fill spaces between doors or just about anywhere she can drive a nail. Even a few places she shouldn’t. So as…

Dark Side

A long time favorite song of mine. You may recall it’s by John Cafferty & the Beaver Brown Band. Since it is the only song by them that ever got any play time, I guess that would make them a One Hit Wonder. Released in 1983 it only managed to climb to 64 on Billboards…

Journey Onward

We are authors of our own stories, and captains of our own ships. Life brings us inspiration from many sources and I believe those are sent to us from God. Maybe they come to us in a dream, in a breathtaking sunrise, or in a perfect stranger who walks into your hospital room one overcast…

The Visit

Two people who mean a great deal to me. They lifted my spirits! It has been years since I have seen either one of them….

A New Outlook

My eyes slowly open from a deep, peaceful slumber. I think for a moment but I am unfortunately unable to recall any of my dreams from the night before. Too bad. For when I can they have always been pleasant ones. To my right, atop an antique buffet, there sits a small lamp that shines…

100!

This is the 100th post of this BLOG. Believe me when I say that nobody is more surprised than I am. When I wrote my first word a year and a half ago, I didn’t really know what I could write about that was going to write about to keep it going week after week. And yet,…

Big Dreams

I didn’t think yesterday would be so hard but it was. Looking back on the past two years makes me realize how much I’ve lost. Don’t get me wrong, I’m proud to have created the BLOG. I don’t think I ever would have done it were it not for my LiS, much less stuck with it….

Two Blue

Two years ago today I suffered the stroke that is responsible for the state I find myself in today. Best described as up a creek without a paddle. Not at all an anniversary to be celebrated, but like Pearl Harbor, it forever will be a day I will commemorate. Not a day to celebrate, but…
