So many different references this simple phrase represents; it all boils down to a parameter. That which you don’t want to cross. Looking back to Monday, it was a company holiday, but I’d been thinking about doing a little work anyway as a primer for the week. I resisted. I drew the line at working …

Lyrics Post: “We Don’t Talk About Bruno”
This one from the animated movie, another gem, “Encanto“, SO good. My kids walking around the house singing this song, the chorus anyway, catchy, fun…err, joy…truly, a little splash of joy. [Pepa:] We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no We don't talk about Bruno, but It was my wedding day [Félix:] It was our …
All We Do
Personal Life, Home Life, Work Life, Social Life, Service Life, all we do, how to do?! How to balance, prioritize, attend, Say Yes, say No, how and when, when when when? Find the bits, find the time, find it within yourself each hour, each day, For all you do, all the demands and pulls and …
Is It Normal?
As the new year gets under way I recall a couple days back, standing in my garage, listening to the rain subside, looking out through the door to the darkness in the backyard. There I was, shapeshifter, projecting forward, writing about the past. My own little take on shape-shifting, maybe more seer forward, looking back. …
Fresh and Forward into 2022
Year Two, Covid, in the books. Big family changes, personal shifts, completed, new patterns established. Plenty of challenge and opportunity for growth at work; intent and planning, all systems go to take it to the next level; hopeful the stars further align, more pieces fall into place. And personally, well, it’s all personal with me. …
The Grandeur of Littleness

Old Places, Old Friends, New Friends, GOOD.
This written about three years back; I’ve since gone throughout divorce and now on reset. But you know, all of this sentiment still holds. It’s the people in your life that matter. GOOD. “Spent part of this past weekend with a few of my wife’s old friends. Good little bunch of folks, nice to have …

He Is Near
As we barrel toward another Christmas, I’m mostly distracted. It’s piling up, the year-end pressure and demands at work, the bustle of getting gifts together for the kids, getting the menus together for three holiday meals, And on and on, And yet he is near, We celebrate the crossover time, When God came, and remains …
Whatdayagot?
What da ya got in the end? The things you’ve learned, The joys you’ve felt, The mistakes you’ve made, The stories you’ve told, the stories you’ve written, the stories you’ve lived, The peace you’ve made The people you’ve loved, What da ya got? The people you’ve loved.
Strange Solace
Working in the warehouse today, standing in-between the looming racks of material,pallets up high, down low, also looses boxes neatly stacked. I'm between PL1 and PL2. Gray, rainy day outside, much needed rain for our drought-stricken state. The weather turned wet yesterday, and is expected to continue throughout today. Near the location I'm working in …
