THERE ARE THINGS… There are still a few things I want to do before I sign off. Now, don’t go getting all weird about me signing off. First of all, I’m fine. I’m actually the healthiest I’ve been in a long time. Sore, like I still take three steps to stand up kinda sore, but good otherwise. I’m use to the cicada buzzing in my ears and my urine is the right color. Nope, I was just thinking while driving... Read more
IS IT JOY? I’m not sure where the ‘depth of soul’ comes from. You know the kind, the motivational alert where you reach, seemingly way down into your gut, which results in you doing things you didn’t think you were able to do-or even wanted to do.

You sit low like you’re sitting on the street, traveling at 80 miles an hour in second gear from stop like to stop like. It’s like that roller coaster ride at Disneyland’s California Adventure. Who the hell wants that? No. I’m talking about a freshly made bed, jammy sleep-shorts, a cool night (please dear... Read more
I believe Dad does what Dad does to build our faith and to come closer to Him, not push us away from Him. Read more
CRAZY TIMES! I think I would like to go back in time, to several different seasons, and see if it was clearly as nutso as it is now. Crazy times we live!
