  • Good Friday 26

    It is Good Friday so my anti Lent vow to not quote the Bible is over. I have quoted the Bible today, but I have also quoted the Book of Mormon and the Quran. “Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.” Matthew 5:4 KJV “Behold, they will crucify him; and after he…

  • Pica

    Eating things that aren’t food is called pica. I ate paper as a child. I swallowed string. I did some serious damage to my digestive system eating mint flavored toothpicks. Ben inherited pica from me. I saw him picking at a cardboard box and putting tiny scraps in his mouth a few days ago. Yesterday…

  • Just a Wednesday

    This morning I got a call while my phone was in sleep mode to let me know that Alex’s day program is on hold until everyone gets the Medicaid paperwork in place. Maybe he’ll go back tomorrow maybe it will take a month. I didn’t see the voicemail or the text until after my alarm…

  • A Cataract Orange

    I had my compressive eye exam. No glaucoma, and no macular degeneration. My left eye however has level 4 out of 4 cataracts and I am eligible for surgery. They did not change my prescription because if I do get cataract work the new prescription would be useless afterwards. The good doctor described the procedure…

  • McDonald’s Chicken Nuggets

    I got a refund today and it was enough to get tacos for Stephanie and McDonald’s for Ben and me. He always gets their chicken nuggets. I watched as he opened up the box and then two of the BBQ packets. He set the box down neatly in the lid of the box and dipped…

  • Daily Hymns

    On Sundays the hymns for the ward are posted in the LDS Gospel Library app. I usually listen to those for my daily hymns. Today the hymns were Easter favorites. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints doesn’t celebrate Palm Sunday and we usually celebrate Easter on Easter. But lately Holy Saturday and…

  • Not a Saint

    I am not a Latter Day Saint. I am a Latter Day Sinner who declares his unworthiness before God.

  • Pustular

    I learned a new word today. Something that is oozing pus is pustular. Ether’s butt is bloody and pustular. He needs to see a vet, but nobody has the spoons for that. Stephanie put on some lotion and it seemed to help. He’s in better shape than he was this winter in all other regards.…

  • Sober

    In honor of Stephanie’s Brother who’s been sober for two weeks I will not be having any beer tonight. I hope he has a mellow evening and I hope you do to. Stay Awesome! Stay Weird! or Stay Away!

  • Theopneustia

    Some say the Book of Mormon was plagiarized. The Church insists that it was translated. Both those explanations fail to compel me. I do not know another book in the world like the Book of Mormon except maybe the Quran. I will get to that in a second. I have an intimate knowledge of what…
