A lot happened this weekend, most annoyingly another car drove into my fence. It was the first rain we’ve gotten in awhile and they crashed close to 9 PM. Whenever I find out a teenage boy was behind the wheel, I sort of shrug, what am I going to do? I remember my dangerous drivingContinue reading “4 December 2023”

It’s the first of December and Christmas decorations are up, there wasn’t as much as I thought, I was able to carry the box of decorations on my own. We’ve been getting real trees the last couple years since there’s a nice market down the street that sells trees, it’s nice that we don’t haveContinue reading “1 December 2023”

The end of November marks the real beginning of the Christmas season. With Thanksgiving being so early in the month there was a nice lull in activities this week. The hustle and bustle is starting up again, I ended up getting a lot of the decorations out and about yesterday, it always feels nice toContinue reading “30 November 2023”

Lately my writings have been biographical, I have to continue changing my style. The form will be formless. Rigidity provides stability and overtime those stable walls become a prison. What’s called stable stops being what provides support and becomes what is recognizable. Any given day and maybe a couple times a year we will wakeContinue reading “29 November 2023”

I’ve probably slept more in the last couple days than I have in months, it astonishes me that the body can work in such a way that there is some sort of reserve energy which isn’t calorie based that I can pull from. Hopefully things go well today with daycare and I can continue catchingContinue reading “28 November 2023”

That was an exhausting weekend, everything went well, I just need some rest. The baby starts daycare tomorrow, that will be my chance, so I only need to make it one day and a wake up. There’s so much to process it will take me at least a couple days, but my wife invited ourContinue reading “27 November 2023”

Thanksgiving went well and I hope the same for everyone else. We were building towards a perfect meal until the dish one of my buddies was making hit a snare. He was excited to make a macaroni casserole, everything was good until he was sliding it into the oven and the disposable aluminum tray gotContinue reading “24 November 2023”

Thanksgiving 2023

This year I have a lot to be thankful for, not least of all my health and for the most part all those around me are healthy. All the hustle and bustle seems important until someone is ill and that’s where real life begins, not when when people are relaxing and enjoying themselves, but whenContinue reading “Thanksgiving 2023”

22 November 2023

With having a Thanksgiving dinner last weekend and another one tomorrow it has felt like a week of Thanksgiving. There’s a common joke that the Christmas season begins the day after Halloween, the joke used to be that it started the day after Thanksgiving, but Black Friday sales have crept forward to the entire monthContinue reading “22 November 2023”

Someone was asking why do people journal thinking it’s obsessing about the past. They then went on to talk about how it can’t change the past etcetera, my first thought is that writing about the future would be fiction, but still journaling about the future can be beneficial. At many times in my life I’veContinue reading “21 November 2023”
