Hamburgers
Our son William came over tonight to do laundry and we DoorDashed Red Robin. I got a Bonsai Burger which is my favorite. I don’t like tomatoes and they didn’t put any on. William was not so lucky. He wanted a plain bacon cheeseburger. They did not even try to honor the request not to…

Sleeping with a Cat
Last night Ether was climbing all over Stephanie while she was trying to sleep. She got fed up with him, put him in my room, and closed her door. Ether immediately wanted my attention instead, but I was also trying to sleep. He climbed all over me for about twenty minutes and eventually lay down…

Visiting my Granddaughter
Today my oldest son Brandon drove his mother and I (and his girlfriend) to Indiana to visit our granddaughter Nevaeh. It was a good visit but I hate being on the road so now I need to decompress. She’s a beautiful little lady and so much fun.

Banana Peel Strips and Cucumbers
Alex likes bananas. He took a whole bunch of them to his room. They are a good part of his diet. There are however two issues that I have with them. The first is that he leaves a pile of banana peel strips when he is done and gets mad at me for telling him…

Catalog
We got a catalog of warehouse supplies today. Stephanie had no use for it so she put it with my stuff. I looked through it and there were at least a few things I might conceivably use. So I decided to keep it. However as I’ve mentioned before our son Alex is a book thief.…

Read a Book
A few days ago I replaced the charging cords on Alex’s Kindles. Since then he has not touched either one. I disrupted his routine and now the routine seems to be gone. He doesn’t really know what to do with himself so he’s been wandering the house more. That is probably better for him than…

Resting from Church
I haven’t been to Sacrament Meetings in ages. I slept in today. So did Stephanie. Sunday is a day of rest or at least it’s supposed to be. But religion is performative for me. Don’t get me wrong I love the brothers of the Ward, but I just don’t think I have anything to prove…

Parental Visitation
My dad and mom stopped in for a visit. My dad isn’t doing very well with a lot of medical issues. He’s not in pain which is good. And he’s still got a lot of fight in him. I love them both but every visit I worry this will be the last time I see…

Ben’s Bad Day
Ben had a bad day today. He needed extra meds. Soda was one of the few requests we could honor so he got a bunch of that. We promised him his respite worker but she had to call off at the last minute. When he asked for her we had to say No. He doesn’t…

Rice Pudding
My lovely wife Stephanie made rice pudding, and it is really good. In case I haven’t said it here lately I love her dearly because she is awesome. I am happily married. I am also happily eating her rice pudding. I told her that rice is better with sugar than it is with meat. That…
