Another turn round the Sun, so lucky, so blessed. What else to say of this life lived so far? More good than not; more fortune than many; more love than I can count, every turn, every turn. Not all peaches and cream to be sure, lessons learned, sustained though pain, maybe the deepest lesson of …

Sweet 16
I wouldn’t say I’m a huge basketball fan or March Madness but, But truth be told it’s fun to see things shake out in the first weekend of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tourney (fun on the Women’s Side too!). And being an alum of a Jesuit university, all the more exciting to see three Jesuit …
Primer
Weekend done, staring another workweek down, not much rest, not much time to ponder, lots to do, lots to do, Simple primer, simply put, It’s just take a few deep breaths, reset your mind to the next right thing, and full gas, go, Primer, FULL GAS, GO…!
Easy Sunday
Been going a million miles an hour for long while feels like, and now it’s time to, SLOW DOWN… Slept in, lounged around lazy, deep breathing, allowing the slow to seep in deep, Then laundry and dishes and some personal book-keeping, All the while gentle, calming music in the background softly playing, maybe Mozart, maybe …
Soon To Return
Soon to return, to the woods, the trails, the outside, the green and rocks and light, GOOD.
Fam First
Gotta say, it’s fam first. I’ve been working some 34 years now, grinder most all those years, Most frequently wiling to put my own needs aside for the company, the business, And I’m still instinctually of that mindset. Bit with three school-age kids, single parent, well, when I’ve got my kids, it’s gotta be Fam …
Selfless Perseverance
No matter the difficulty or struggle, To your last breath, Remain undaunted, Rely on your resilience anew, Onward.
Swirl
In the dark again, Seeking good rest, fleeting, Thoughts spool up quickly, random, My choice, what to do what to do, Assert, ascend in the moment, Take back the mantle of control, insist, Scribble down Reese words, way forward, Adjust in the dark, eyelids flutter, better, Let the moment pass, let the moment pass~~~
Second Half
The day waned on, Slowly it dawned, On my slow-moving head, DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME, Maybe at root, Tho’ I tried to anticipate, accommodate, Bumpy came, Bumpy was, Bumpy did me in, Almost! But not complete, Lessons learned, Again, Lessons learned, GOOD.
First Half
Bumped along, Tried figuring, What was sideways, Why upside down, This day? Did this and that to adjust, Accommodate, but time kept clicking on, Son kept digging in, Everyone, lethargic, First half, meh~~~
1/2_Full, All GOOD
