2020-06-30 Take Back the City Tour: Day 15 Colorado Wrap Up
We arrived home from our Colorado road trip late afternoon Sunday. It’s now Tuesday. That’s what happens. And.. if I don’t take the time To reflect reflected on our trip, it will start to slip away… At the very least, I’d like to capture the highlights so I don’t forget them. Pictures are worth a…

2020-06-27 Take Back the City Tour: Day 🤷♀️ Health Check
Somewhere along the way I’ve gotten messed up on what day it is. That happens when you miss accounting some days and double up on others. What I have been keeping track of on my handy-dandy paper calendar is the following: What my Lorazepam dose is What week it is in my plan to come…

2020-06-26 Take Back the City Tour: Day 12.944 – Enjoying the Moment
Today is almost over. The more time my daughter and I spend alone together, the more we come to understand each other better. I mean, we live together but sometimes, we are too busy just getting through each day that we don’t even really talk and that’s a shame. Tonight she told me she was…

2020-04-16 Lottery Ticket Happiness
Every time I drive west across Nebraska on I-80 I’m full of hope and excitement about what’s to come. If I’m driving west on that long stretch of boring interstate I’m driving away from home and toward something fun and different, people I love and mountains I marvel. I know that soon I will be…

2020-03-15 Out With the Old, In With the New
I’m briefly interrupting the current SugarCookie Series to write the Sunday Day Trip Status with a hint of realization and a pinch of actual stats. Where to start? An interesting thing happened when I opened this note, started to type, and realized the date. March 15th. The Ides!! Usually as this day approaches I think…
