Yesterday was entirely taken up by LEGOLAND. The boys had an absolute blast. We arrived at ten in the morning and didn’t leave until four in the afternoon. My Fitbit didn’t count many exercise minutes or even a lot of steps, but I suppose that is because most of the day was standing in line. … Continue reading 8/4/19

The campout was wonderful. On Saturday we went for a hike. It was absolutely beautiful. There was a caravan of us who went and it was a bit of a drive to reach it. There were more than a few stops to check maps and scratch heads. There is no GPS to guide you out … Continue reading 7/30/19

I want to publicly apologize to the Gods of Illness, the Keepers of the Cold, the Spirits of Sickness. I was wrong. I had watched everyone I know fall victim to you, some people multiple times, and I was left untouched.

There are times I can even see healthy, it is right there. All I have to do is put down the unhealthy … Continue reading What’s Familiar Vs. What’s Healthy
