Another Denomination
When I drifted out of the Episcopal Church I started exploring other religions. When my views about God started to positively coalesce I found myself increasingly drawn to Mormonism. It seemed far enough away from the Christianity that I was rejecting to accord with what I actually believed was true. I am beginning to wonder…

Pictures of Jesus
I have two very large pictures of Jesus. They are both LDS art. One is just a headshot in a white robe with a red cloak. If you’ve seen any LDS art you’ve seen this one. The other is a Sermon on the Mount print. I think. Maybe it’s a “suffer the little children to…

Charity
Times are rough but I am blessed. The struggle is real and necessary but so is the gratitude. I want a more abundant life so that I can bless more people with mine. I’ve been studying the scriptures today but I have also been drinking. Those probably cancel each other out. I am not content.…

Pajama Day
One of the advantages to working from home is that I don’t have to put on clothes. One of the disadvantages is that I sometimes stay in the same pair of pajamas for several days. I wore clothes yesterday but today has been completely a pajama day. If you are coming to visit give me…

Lithium Batteries
My son dropped a phone. The lithium battery exploded and it freaked him out. The phone will only stay on for a few minutes before it overheats. I remember when I used to believe rechargeable batteries were safe and environmentally friendly. We’ve got billions of those little devils now. They make big ones for cars…
