  • Son-day

    My oldest son came back to town for an indefinite stay. He’s been having a rough time, so he moved back in with his mom. I suggested that he could be my ride to church this morning. It’s Fast and Testimony Sunday which are always a little more interesting than the usual sacrament meetings. So…

  • Snow Day

    This is what the first day of spring looks like in south central Wisconsin. When I was a kid I loved when the snow cancelled school. But it’s Saturday, and I’m an adult, and I have to work today. It’s beautiful out the window anyway. But it needed to be shoveled. Our oldest son helped…

  • Raw Sewage

    I deal with a lot of poop. I change diapers for my disabled adult children. Those diapers go in a garbage bag that I take to the garbage bin once a week. Because of this I really don’t like dealing with “extra” poop. At work everyone has agreed that I am not responsible for cleaning…

  • Bee Weird

    I am a strong advocate that normal is boring. People need, I think, to be weird. Each of us is unique and when we use our imagination and creativity that uniqueness will certainly come out. I am a firm believer in individual expression and the need to relay to the world what we can and…

  • Two in the Afternoon

    Today has gone smoothly so far despite running on so little sleep. It’s a good thing this is my day off though. I’m feeling a little loopy and that’s never a good combination with a regular job. It’s a good day to play video games and joke around on social media. I’ve done a little…

  • Two in the Morning

    I woke up about an hour and a half ago which in Wisconsin is two in the morning. I’ve had problems with insomnia most of my life. It is usually because I can’t seem to fall asleep the first time, but tonight I’ve already slept for a few hours and have been trying to relax…

    The flags riseAnd nations go to warSuch arrogancePride in a ragHumility know no nation The sabers rattleFollowed by warcrysBut below that noiseOthers are crying tooThe dead all know the same grave The crests fallCodes of arms march onSwords are drawnBullets flyThe colors kill So people dieAnd their nations with themThey could have spokenBut instead they…

  • Pills Are Therapy Too

    Among the things that I do and advocate that other people do is to express myself creatively. I’ve mostly been doing digital art in the past few years. My preferred program is GIMP 2.10.32 though I have others. I have a fairly large collection of designs at this point. Some from trying to sell t-shirt…

  • Spring in Wisconsin

    It’s the first day of spring and that means warmer weather (sort of). I like living here and I like that things are about to start growing but I’m not going to kid myself that it will magically start today. At least the bugs haven’t started coming back yet. 20 March 2023
