  • Sleeping with a Cat

    Last night Ether was climbing all over Stephanie while she was trying to sleep. She got fed up with him, put him in my room, and closed her door. Ether immediately wanted my attention instead, but I was also trying to sleep. He climbed all over me for about twenty minutes and eventually lay down…

  • Revelation

    A stranger on the internet recommended The Revelation of John to me. I rarely see any modern parallels in that book. I take a Corinthians 13 view of it. We know in part and we prophesy in part but when the actual events come to pass those partial prophecies should be done away with. I…

  • Three Beers In

    Stephanie let me sleep this morning. Ben didn’t but she let me go back to bed after he was done with me. Diaper and soda first thing in the morning. What a life. But today has mostly been mobile games in between the job of taking care of my adult disabled autistic children. The struggle…

  • Mobile Lies

    Today has been a better day. I went to my counselor for the first time in months which got me out of the house. I should get out more but I prefer to be home in my pajamas whenever I can help it. I’ve mostly been playing Bud Farm on my phone today otherwise. It…

  • Hard Day for Mormons

    Today was Fast and Testimony Sunday. I wasn’t planning on going to Sacrament Meeting but I decided to fast anyway. I started my fast at 11 pm Central Time. When I woke up in the morning I got news that the prophet and president of the church had passed away at almost exactly the same…

  • Dress for the Job You Want

    I’ve been in my pajamas all day. I like it that way. I don’t have to put on clothes for diapers, meds, and baths. I don’t have to put on clothes for video games or social media. I can do art and writing just the way I am. I’m not comfortable leaving the house without…

  • Healing

    Stephanie has been writing about healing a lot lately. Her own healing is her story to tell and she is telling it sporadically. My own healing is relatively minor compared to her needs. I hate being sick. I don’t allow health problems to slow me down when I can help it. But that means when…

  • Changing Beliefs

    Tonight I have been thinking about how much control we have over our beliefs. I don’t think it’s very much. I think we charge into reality and only start or stop believing something because the truth hurts. I get into so many arguments online. None of them really hurt. Nobody on the other side of…

  • How’s the Sickie?

    The Princess Bride starts with Peter Falk walking into his grandson’s room and asking: How’s the Sickie? Today I have been sick and I don’t like it. I’ve gotten some extra sleep but I still feel like my butt has been kicked. I don’t know if I picked it up on my trip this weekend,…

  • Let Them Govern Themselves

    I talked with another person today about Joseph Smith Jr saying that we should teach people correct principles and let them govern themselves. The saying is generally well received because most people believe that they have correct principles and want to govern themselves. The problem of course is that people don’t agree which principles are…
