I received an achievement from Word Press, the site that hosts my website. The achievement was for posting three days straight, this must be a new thing because I’ve certainly had a three day streak before. Regardless, it’s a welcome addition by giving me some sort of goal on writing. I started writing daily aroundContinue reading “30 January 2026”

Cold weather continues down in the American South. There is a video game called Don’t Starve, the title implies the gameplay. The game had seasons like real life and Winter was a accurate depiction of real life Winter. In the game, you’re left counting the days until Winter ends because productivity stops and it becomesContinue reading “28 January 2026”

We braved the ice storm. Our location was safe from any damage and we’re only suffering freezing temperatures. Yesterday, daycare was cancelled due to the expected cold weather. In typical real life fashion, the kids are back today and the temperatures are actually colder. It was was good for us to be sheltering in placeContinue reading “27 January 2026”

Taking care of the girls is going well. Last night, the elder princess struggled to fall asleep and I watched her run across the dark house to go potty. She didn’t know I was hiding in the shadowing.

My exercise has been going well. The main focus is still push ups, trying to raise my comfort zone, so I can speak while pushing. My claim is I’m still the strongest I’ve ever been, mostly because I weigh more than ever before. The other reason is doing clean and jerk with more weight thanContinue reading “16 January 2026”

If you’re reading this, thank you. It’s reassuring to know I’m not alone. Yesterday, I was exhausted and didn’t even finish my goal of writing length. Some people were nice to throw me a like when I was stuck in my own world. The reaction was enough to spark the fire in me. I likeContinue reading “15 January 2025”

I decided to abandon the novel writing project. Either I’m not in a place to write like that now or I’m not the type of person to write that. This sort of writing is exercise, it keeps me nimble and flushes my mind. Many days I would get frustrated by not wanting to write thatContinue reading “13 January 2026”
