I’ve been on WordPress for long while. Early adapter trying to find the way to the blogging world, with fits and starts and no real guidance. I love having this site, this voice, this channel to all you good peeps out there to share thoughts, perspective, inspiration. The question to you all is, “Why do …

I’ve written before about lists, scribbling down more words, likely same thoughts, so helpful sometimes, lists. Scribble down more words to share as I scribble down more words on a list, endless words, endless things to do. Lists like a safety valve, pressure valve, always more always more, scribble down the words that are tied …

Great fun, catch-up conversations, random topics, easy chats, good food, bevies, some live music, good night’s sleep… All of this amounted to a nice reset for the soul, Rooted.

Recently for me, I was feeling the former; weird, odd, funky. Fuzzy whoozy brain. Bumpish night with the kids. LSleepy. Fortunately a little …
Waved goodbye to August yesterday, another month in the bag. 2022 seems to accelerating in the second half of the year. My work buddy / colleague, SAL — in addition to being a veteran Supply Chain Guy — is a commercial fisherman. He sent a couple pics yesterday eve from just off the California Coast, …
One of my earliest young adult memories was considering the craziness of the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States, the nuclear arms race, and the strategic military/political policy of “mutually assured destruction.” Indeed, that conflict was the main reason my college degree was in Comparative Politics and History.
