Today at the school we had a traveling display of Saint Carlo Acutis visit us for the day. It was emotional for some of our students, to see such a young man, who accomplished so many things, and practiced what he preached and unfortunately died at such an early age. There were many displays of…
Swampin’ with tha Fam
I am grateful to be heading out to New Orleans tomorrow, early afternoon with the familia. All of us piling into a car and heading to the airport—for wedding and celebration. I expect a whole lot of trouble… and a whole lotta fun. Hit it!
One Step Ahead….
I am very grateful that my brother did not post last night! This means that I am at least one step ahead of him on tasks that need to be completed this week. It means that I may actually receive $10 from him this week; and yes, with the current economy, every dollar counts. I…
Nighty Night
I am grateful for a bed to sleep in and sleeping in on the weekends.
Dog Gone
I am grateful Marlin was found safe and sound this evening… And grateful for our neighbor that found him and kept him safe and sound until we picked him up. And grateful for my evening stroll.
The 40 Days of May
There is less than one month left before the class of 2026 graduates at our school. There is not one day from now until then that there is not an activity happening on campus; we are busy! I will remind my team, as they grumble, that it is job security for us all. I am…
Between the Lines
I am grateful for the opportunity I had to connect with some important people in my life today… And what is the best way I know of to connect? At least in the top three ways… Truly helping someone out. I say “truly” because it is quite human to believe one is helping when one…
Rock n Roll
Push past your own mental illness, precrastination. Put on some rock and roll, groove and be productive. This week the music has really helped me to get things done. Pushing myself in exercise and work. The beginning of the week it was some funky jazz, yesterday it was new wave from the 1980’s and today,…
Super. Natural.
I am grateful for the JOYFUL song of support. I am grateful for my Brothers & Sisters. I am grateful for the rise and fall; the LIGHT of it all. The shadow and GRACE; the pace of the HuMAN race. The reading between the lines… and the dawn.
Purple Prose
It was ten years ago today that the Master Musician passed away. It does not seem that long ago, and I enjoy his music as much today as I did back then. He has inspired and written for so many people and bands. He is a legend and the music world still misses him. I…
That Good Night
Some times it snows in April… Sometimes it is a bit of a charge to be in gratitude. My attitude swings low, and i find myself in streams of melancholy, a bit of a pity party, really… And all the tropes and memes for picking oneself up just don’t land. So tonight, I am grateful…
twirl in the doorway
I am grateful for the woman in red Willing to dance with me in the moonlight I am grateful for the brother Joining me weekly for untold adventures I am grateful for the aid I receive in my head And the fires that light the way AND—I am grateful for the month I have with…
