  • 2018-01-07 Sushi Sunday Funday Status Update – A Year in the Rearview

    It’s Sunday January 7th, 2018 and my gym is swarming with resolutionaries but I’m not there yet because I’m still catching up from last week. I’ve not had time to reflect deeply on 2017, but I think that’s ok because I spent so much time on it throughout the year. I was evaluating my status…

  • 2017-11-28 The Tale Of Two Thermostats – Part 2

    The last two days have been a serious departure from both my normal routine and what I could be or should be doing with my time. Losing heat in your house will do that to a person. Once again the universe is smiling on me and the temps outside which could have been below freezing…
