Baptized Twice
When I was a few months old I was baptized as an Episcopalian. It’s pretty easy to be Christlike as a little kid. I was thirteen before I learned the Ten Commandments. That was right around the time that I was confirmed as a member of the Episcopal Church. The bishop had powder on his…

I Don’t Say It Enough
I am grateful for all I have. I am grateful for the work I do and the ability to do it. I am grateful for my trials because they refine me. I am grateful for my wife. I am grateful for my kids. I am grateful for a refrigerator full of food. I am grateful…

Too much sugar
I haven’t eaten very healthy today. I had some beef roast. But I’ve also had donuts, ice cream, and fruit punch. It should be no surprise to you when I tell you I’m gaining weight. Sooner or later I’m going to get to the moment when I’m sure just one more sugary bite will kill…

Stand Up For Yourself
The world is full of jerks. Don’t let them win if you can help it. I don’t know who all of you need to read that but some of you do. Stay weird. Stay awesome. And stay firm.

The Big D
Ten years ago I promised myself I would not let That Man live in my head rent free. In the past six months that has become a complete failure. On the one hand I approve of most of what his party is doing. On the other hand I find myself defending him far too often…

Lots of Weeks in this Month
It’s been a long month of long weeks. If it hasn’t been one thing it’s been another. I wanted to indulge. We ordered Papa John’s for everyone and I ate a whole medium pizza. I started my fast after finishing a bottled water. Now I have to wait to take my reflux pills until I…

Ben’s Bad Day
Ben had a bad day today. He needed extra meds. Soda was one of the few requests we could honor so he got a bunch of that. We promised him his respite worker but she had to call off at the last minute. When he asked for her we had to say No. He doesn’t…

Spider in the Kitchen
I’m a big fan of spiders. We usually just leave them alone. We’ve got a big ambush spider on the corner of one of the steps going into the basement. It has been there for weeks so it is obviously eating well. I’m cool with that. A little while ago I saw a chunk on…
