No Emergency
I slept hard this morning and my wife left me to catch up on the sleep I’ve been missing. There wasn’t an emergency which prevented that. I didn’t have much time to get ready for work but again there wasn’t an emergency to prevent my escape to Walgreens. I’m getting to do truck today. And…

Up Before Dawn
There’s a greeting that the antagonists use in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. When you try to enter their cave one of them says, “Dawn is breaking.” The you have to say, “Greet the new day.” Or maybe it’s the other way around it; it’s been a while since I’ve done that quest. It’s all very…

Another Day, Another Pharmacy
Walgreen has four stores in town. Before tonight I had only worked at one of them. One of the other pharmacies was shorthanded tonight so I agreed to help. I suffer from a bad case of imposter syndrome. I do not believe I am up to the responsibilities that life sends my way on a…

Mother’s Day
I woke up early (and stayed awake) to give our youngest son a bath. I made sure he ate and let him watch a few videos with me. He seemed agitated, so I gave him his morning medication. My intention was to let his mother and my lovely wife sleep in. She got up to…

Running Late
The past couple of days have been hard on my wife. She has been having trouble getting the motivation to do things like grocery shopping. But she went to do that a little bit ago. Sadly I don’t think she’ll be back in time for me to get to Walgreens promptly. I’m okay with that.…

Phone Calls and Paperwork
Less work at Walgreens means more work from home. I spent half an hour or the phone doing a monthly checkup for the boys and agreeing to what needs to be on the paperwork so that I can bill hours for them. All told I’ll be technically working a forty hour week. But only technically.…

Gorgeous Day
It’s gorgeous weather today so I decided to walk to my appointment. I misjudged the time it would take so I arrived way too early. So you get to see me ramble in the waiting room. South Central Wisconsin is great this time of year, and I love the spring. It’s not as hot and…

Start Right, Stay Right
I got up at a reasonable time and got out of the house to work on a project. I didn’t get called back for an emergency and the house is still pretty quiet. My youngest is still asleep. He had a rough day yesterday. God keeps reminding me that when my son is giving me…
