The Crack Before Dawn
It’s too early in the morning for me to be awake once again. It’s that Saturday morning energy. My work week starts tomorrow so I should have time to recalibrate today. Hopefully I’ll be appropriately awake for that. I have an Elders Quorum Presidency zoom meeting in 13 hours. I’ll have to stay alert until…

Arizona Rx Energy
It’s my day off from Walgreens, so I really don’t need a lot of caffeine and sugar. But who am I kidding, I need to cut back on those every day. I’m having a second Rx Energy anyway this morning. Each one is 114% of my US Recommended Daily Allowance for sugar. That’ll put me…

“Perfect”
Once and a while at work a customer says “perfect.” This happens especially when we get the right prescription to the right customer in a timely manner. It is nice to hear. Much nicer than the customers who no matter what you do for them nothing at all is right. Mind you I believe in…

Decompressing
Today has been a quiet day. I’ve played some video games. I’ve contemplated what Easter means to me now almost thirty years after my conversion the the LDS Church. My wife brought me a latte from Dunkin Donuts and our son made me a hamburger. Yesterday was stressful. A road trip to see my granddaughter…

Road Trip
Today I am spending most of my time riding in a car with my oldest son on our way to Indiana to see my granddaughter. His music is loud and the car smells like aerosol, so far only one piece has flown off the windshield. This is the farthest out I’ve been in months. I…
