  • Bath at Eleven

    My youngest son just asked for a diaper and bath. I finished what I was doing and started getting him cleaned up. As I was running the water I wanted to pass time. I asked him “Kolob?” to sing him the hymn.He sung his little “Nooo” I asked him “Shine?” to sing him the song…

  • Holidays with the Family

    If you could host a dinner and anyone you invite was sure to come, who would you invite? This question has me thinking about the dining rooms and picnics I attended as a child. The guests were my extended family. It was usually one party for my mother’s side of the family and a smaller…

  • Facebook Jail

    I was banned from Facebook for only twelve hours. I have a theory as to why since they didn’t tell me what triggered either decision. I have several strikes for inciting violence according to Facebook Community Standards. I made a post a couple of years ago comparing the January 6th Republican protests to the Wisconsin…

  • Facebook Ban

    At approximately 12;30 I received a ban for Facebook. They did not tell me why. They will review the ban once before it becomes permanent. I might have just made my last controversial post on the platform and I don’t even know which one it was. I feel like I’m coming to the end of…

  • With Age Comes Wisdom

    What do you think gets better with age? If you use your brain your whole life you will use it better in your old age than you did in your youth. There are exceptions of course but the reason old men and women are forced to retire is that we become more dangerous as the…

  • Not Enough Good Sleep

    What time do you go to bed and wake up currently? I’ve been sleeping from about 2am to 10am sometimes, but any given day is up in the air. I get insomnia regularly and sometimes when I can’t sleep for a long time my body makes up for it with a big crash. That happened…

  • Common Comforts

    What strategies do you use to increase comfort in your daily life? 200 years ago kings couldn’t have dreamed of the comforts many Americans take for granted. We have electric lights, refrigerated food, central air, and indoor plumbing. It fills me with gratitude that we have so many comforts even though they are common here.…

  • My Future Wife

    What are you most excited about for the future? I am excited to grow old with my wife. My past wife, my present wife, and my future wife are all one person. I want to be with her for a lot longer. Assuming that wish comes true, it will be awesome.

  • Could or Should?

    If I were as committed to a harmonious world as I should be I should give up my ego. Sadly I am not so committed that I could give up my ego. There are people who take great joy in selfless service. I am not one of them. I serve my family in a fairly…

  • Manilow and Murray

    What is your favorite genre of music? When I was growing up I had a lot of Barry Manilow and Anne Murray records and tapes. I eventually branched out to Weird Al Yankovic and Billy Joel. I had some Neil Diamond and Barbara Streisand in the mix. In high school there were musicals and madrigals.…
