Slept Too Hard Again
It’s 3:20 pm Central Daylight Time. I woke up twenty minutes ago. My life is exhausting. Stephanie picked up my slack, so the boys got the care they needed, but crashing out like this makes me feel like a loser. But at least Mondays are technically my day off so I don’t have to adjust…

Forgot to Fast
At five minutes after midnight last night I opened the LDS Study App. The hymns for our Sacrament Service appear on Sundays. The first hymn of today’s meeting was about the blessings of fasting. I was currently eating a midnight snack and finished it because I could in theory start a fast. I went to…

Dysregulated Again
Yesterday I had Danny over. I got beer for me, wine for him, and Culver’s for everyone. It was a good evening until I ended up with a headache and nausea. I slept hard and have been dysregulated today. So is everyone else today. Stephanie didn’t sleep. We’re having trouble keeping Ben in the house.…

Laryngitis
Today my throat hurts. It’s tight and it’s achy. It’s hard to talk and even harder to eat. So I’m typing out my thoughts. I don’t get sick very often. I’ve gotten as much sleep as I can for now. I’ll power through this one. There’s always work to do, and Stephanie is always sicker…

The Day After Easter
Reverse Lent is over. Will I live a cleaner more holy life for Jesus or is this just like the New Year’s Resolutions people make and break three days later. I’ve already decided that I’m not actually going to give up beer. I haven’t had THC in weeks hopefully I can stay away from that.…

Hiding in the Basement
We leave the basement door open at night so the cats can get in and out. Our youngest son doesn’t like it when the cats are in the basement and doesn’t like the basement door open. There is a crawl space just inside the door where the cats sometimes retreat. Our son woke up and…

Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
I’m 55 years old and I’m still not good at making grilled cheese sandwiches. I grilled three today, but the heat was too high. They burned before the cheese melted. Stephanie assured me that it was just because I am out of practice. I still feel a little disappointed in myself. I ate them anyway.

How’s it going?
I’m having a good day. I got both boys off with their service providers. I got a little “quiet time” while the house was empty except for Stephanie sleeping. The cats have been decent to each other though Magic has hissed at Cosmos and Ether. And then my friend Danny brought beer. So I’m a…

Hiding in the Basement
Since Tuesday I had not seen Ether. Stephanie was sure he was hiding in the basement. I worried that he had escaped the house and found her evidence that he was still with us inconclusive. Tonight he came out of hiding long enough for Stephanie to pick him up and bring him upstairs. She held…

Stephanie and Ether
We got another cat today. He is Ether and he’s still kinda scared of Magic. Cosmos has been a little more friendly. Wish us all luck.
