16 December 2024

While winding down last night my queen reminded me of how good our elder princess sounded playing piano. The princess was told no to something then went into that room to pout, after a minute she started playing piano on her own. I rarely look back on the day to think about everything we’ve doneContinue reading “16 December 2024”

18 March 2024

Last Friday I got some bad news that I couldn’t shake from my head, so I didn’t write my blog. Hopefully it’s nothing now, we signed to sell our old house today and the buyers sign on Wednesday. While signing I stared at this painting done by my grand dad. The whole process is aContinue reading “18 March 2024”

1 February 2024

Today’s work is done, things went pretty smoothly. The one problem I’m kicking myself over happened while painting the ceiling spackle. Previously I had painted part of a ceiling with the wrong type of paint, I used primer and now have spackle paint. The miss matched paint meant I had to paint the whole ceiling,Continue reading “1 February 2024”

More on morons

Mary helped come up with that title. Today has started as an amazing day. First off I slept like a rock and woke up a little after 7:00 AM from my dog crying to be let out. We got to sleep in because my wife usually has surgeries today, but didn’t have any scheduled. AfterContinue reading “More on morons”

A Piece of Myself

Lot of 2’s in today’s date. Speaking of which, 2 things I learned from BEN(Boss Executive Neighbor) today was that I need to pay attention to the big picture values and the other was that I should be spending more time learning from him. Ok so I showed him my most recent painting and heContinue reading “A Piece of Myself”

Piety Indeed

Alright morning pages, I’m back after my monthly day off. Today is a good day to come back to/too because the date has four twos. 42, what more could you ask for? I hope there’s a word for when several numbers are in a row, 777 being the famous slot machine or if a personContinue reading “Piety Indeed”

S, C and Straight Lines

Today is going pretty well. I cleaned the carpets today because it hadn’t been done in awhile, but also I’m having my friend John and his wife over for dinner tomorrow. It should be a lot of fun since he was a philosophy major in college and we’ve had two hour conversations that just flyContinue reading “S, C and Straight Lines”

The best part about me is I am not you

I try to stay humble because there’s no room for growth when you think things are as good as they can get, but I watched Good Will Hunting again recently and there’s a part when Matt Damon’s character says to Ben Affleck’s that he wants to be doing the same thing in 20 years. BenContinue reading “The best part about me is I am not you”

Two things I’ve been listening to lately are Jordan Peterson and Eminem

I love you morning pages, but you are an illusive beast. Everyday I have to pray the muses are gracious enough to visit me so I’m not left empty handed. I don’t really ever plan on looking back at my morning pages, though I do like the concept of seeing what I was thinking thisContinue reading “Two things I’ve been listening to lately are Jordan Peterson and Eminem”
