Stephanie Day Off
Stephanie and I have agreed that she needs at least one day off a week from taking care of the children. Saturdays are her day off and my day to do all the supportive home care. It’s still a pretty typical day for the kids. My youngest wanted a bath first thing in the morning.…

Certainty
I fully admit that I am not certain of anything I believe. I believe my wife loves me. I believe the earth will continue to rotate and sunlight will reach everywhere it’s supposed to reach. I believe the USA still has a couple of good years out of the political cycle left in it. I…

Washing Your Hands
I just read along with an audio of the seventh chapter of the Gospel of Mark. The disciples weren’t washing their hands before they ate. The Pharisees were upset because it violated the laws of ceremonial cleanliness. Jesus tells them they are teaching the commandments of men instead of the commandments God. But the thing…

September 11, 2024
It is the “anniversary” of the 9/11 attacks in the USA. Americans were nicer to each other in the days that followed. Facts were scarce to begin with so people hadn’t started arguing about who did it and why. But it didn’t take long for some people to paint Muslim Americans with a large bloody…

Environmental Justice

The Sabbath is for Man
Today I have rested. I haven’t been to church in months because that is anything but restful. I still kick myself for being less productive. Did the gods rest? Do they? Or is divinity 24/7? Men need rest. We are finite and fragile. The eternal and the sublime may recede in certain times and places…

The Large Items Are Gone
I probably shouldn’t be shocked that strangers came through for me when they said they would. The neighborhood action team removed the futon and mattresses without needing anything further on my part. This is a good place to live. In other news my morning is going pretty smoothly. My youngest son wanted a bath until…

Haul It Away
About once every six month our neighborhood takes large items to the dump for free. I have never tried to do this before so I don’t really know if putting a futon and some old mattresses on our front lawn will have the desired effect of getting them off the property. That is the theory…
