I found myself deep in it this past weekend. Inertia. My particular case was mental inertia. High minded goals stalled out. Some things completed, but much still to do. With a little faith and patience and some love too, I came out the other side. Then I fell back in again, into the funk. When …

Get Some: Early Morning Peace
This road, so busy during the day. A road running from the east foothills all the way to what was orchard lands, a hundred years ago. Now home of The Spaceship. I walk this road most mornings, heading west, only a couple of blocks, with a couple dogs. It's the perfect way to start the …

“White Noise”
I’ve relished it since I was a kid. The National Sleep Foundation defines “white noise” as that which reduces the difference between background sounds and “peak” sounds. Whatever you call it, I love it. As a kid it was the central air system fan in our house running in the early morning. Now it’s the …
What’s in that room?
Hmm...Room 1411...? I wonder what’s in that room. What do they do in there? It’s good to be curious. It’s good to ask questions. Keep wondering, keep asking, keep learning. Be interested in things around you. That approach everyday will keep your mind sharp. GOOD.

I think it boils down to common purpose, and people working together for the common cause and getting better together. …
Into The Twenties
Looking back on the 2000 "Teens", as with any retrospective, there's plenty of positive, and plenty of challenges too. Funny for me as a middle-age dude. to think about laying a firm foundation for the next ten years, the next decade, the future -- but that's how I feel about it, all the same. Our …
Boxing Day Recap
Day after the Christmas feast - Boxing Day the Canadians call it - a mixed day of blessings and goodness if you try to find it. Have a look, it’s not too hard. It was a morning read, new old book, a gift from our daughter, a volume she bought at her school store. It …
Christmas Eve
Reflections on the last few days, so many things swirl in and out of my mind. Rounding out the month at work - almost. I’ll be back in on the 30th to help close the books for December. Continued learning and insights and lessons and mistakes and pushing the business forward. Thankful for the repeated …
