The Morning After
Yesterday was a good day. I took my new insurance card to the clinic, I had a good hamburger with my wife for lunch, I got my prescription medication, I cleaned house, I played with the cat (a lot), I made some art (well you know that), I played my games and socialized on my…

Last Call
The final hour of pharmacy tonight was rough. We had a steady stream of people until about five minutes before we closed and one drive up after the lights went out. But we survived and I made it to the parking lot before my wife came to get me. We all went home I took…

Laundry Day Sorta
I am out of clean uniforms so they are in the wash. Unfortunately our dryer isn’t working properly. The service people have been out several times for the issue so another house call will probably be little or no charge. But it’s an inconvenience to have to tumble a load of close three times as…

On Being Grateful
What positive emotion do you feel most often? While I want more out of life I try to cultivate an attitude of gratitude. I have a family that loves me. I have a place of employment that is safe and clean even if it is a little bit nerve wracking. I have a very short…

Diapers, and Lightbulbs, and Boys! Oh My!
It’s way too early in the morning for me to be so awake. This is becoming more typical. My youngest son asked for a diaper so I got out of bed. I changed him and he really needed it. His brother was hovering so I changed him too even though he did not really need…
