Dust Buster
I got filters for my dust buster. I have been spot cleaning the floors for days. I am almost out of filters. But I got them from Amazon so I can order a bunch more now that I know the correct specifications. I’m going to try to find a hand held unit to do wet…

Wasting Sauce
I grew up in a home where wasting food was significantly frowned upon. I don’t like to throw away leftovers. We had a bag of meatballs in the freezer for maybe a year. I am finishing the last of them now. How do they taste you may ask. I don’t really think about it. I…

Reset
My life is going into reset. Little things that I have counted on for decades are vanishing. I am finding out for instance that this house is a one man job. I am missing the fact that I don’t have a car and don’t know how to drive even if I did. Small comforts are…

Merlin
I am playing a Massive Multiplayer Online game (MMO) called Forge of Empires. In the current event I earned Merlin. I wasn’t sure I had actually gotten him because he was not on my allies list. It turns out he isn’t an ally at all. His picture can be used as my profile avatar. That’s…

Intimidation
I can be very intimidating. I have the ability to seem much more violent than I can actually be. My bark is far worse than my bite. That usually serves me effectively. I’ve never killed anyone nor do I want to do so. I have 1st Nephi in the back of my head that if…
