    Personal reflections on my life and experiences.

    Ghosts

    As my first cat gets older, she gets a little wackier. With the addition of a new flat mate, she lost some of her control of her environment, and despite Po being in no way a threat to her (he avoids her mostly), she is more wound up each day than she used to...

    This afternoon I decided to empty out my truck of all the stuff I had let collect in it over the last something-something months. My wish was ti just strip the insides back down to where there was nothing in the cab that didn’t need to be there. This meant removing a few old...

    This morning, I was a little surprised to look outside very early, and under the new sunlight was a layer of white on the ground. Naturally, much of the white stuff was gone by this afternoon, but the snow lent itself to the mood for the day. I stayed up a bit too late...

    It is 9:40 PM in Albuquerque, and reports say that Putin has begun his invasion of the Ukraine. Under gray clouds and chilly temperatures locally, I know that there is no good that will come out of this for the world. This is a reenactment of a chapter written long ago, in which there...

    Lose Some Weight

    It’s not uncommon now, at my age, to hear that advice when I visit the doctor’s office. I am past the age and metabolism where my calorie intake is outpaced by my activeness. Heck, eating is often my activeness. Which is why doctors say lose the extra weight, the fluff, if you can. Your...
