Sleeping Wrong
I slept in and Stephanie ended up in the ER tonight. I try not to feel guilty but this one hits hard.

Final Harvest 25
Winter is coming to Wisconsin. The garden is empty and this is the result. The carrots and tomatoes did well. Stephanie got one squash. The corn and beans were lost. Our lives as a piece of art.

Hamburgers
Our son William came over tonight to do laundry and we DoorDashed Red Robin. I got a Bonsai Burger which is my favorite. I don’t like tomatoes and they didn’t put any on. William was not so lucky. He wanted a plain bacon cheeseburger. They did not even try to honor the request not to…

Sleeping with a Cat
Last night Ether was climbing all over Stephanie while she was trying to sleep. She got fed up with him, put him in my room, and closed her door. Ether immediately wanted my attention instead, but I was also trying to sleep. He climbed all over me for about twenty minutes and eventually lay down…

Three Beers In

Banana Peel Strips and Cucumbers
Alex likes bananas. He took a whole bunch of them to his room. They are a good part of his diet. There are however two issues that I have with them. The first is that he leaves a pile of banana peel strips when he is done and gets mad at me for telling him…

Catalog
We got a catalog of warehouse supplies today. Stephanie had no use for it so she put it with my stuff. I looked through it and there were at least a few things I might conceivably use. So I decided to keep it. However as I’ve mentioned before our son Alex is a book thief.…

Resting from Church
I haven’t been to Sacrament Meetings in ages. I slept in today. So did Stephanie. Sunday is a day of rest or at least it’s supposed to be. But religion is performative for me. Don’t get me wrong I love the brothers of the Ward, but I just don’t think I have anything to prove…
