This weekend we celebrated Labor Day here in the United States of America. I really did not do too much in the way of celebrating. I was dog sitting for some friends, so I stayed most of my weekend on their boat. I did go sailing, on Sunday, with some other friends on a little…

There certainly is a lot to be said for progress. Things became a lot easier and a whole lot closer to us after the industrial revolution; and even more so since the inception and universal use of computers. We now have access to information within seconds, all we have to do is ask Google, Alexa…

There is a lot happening in this world. Some of it is good, some of it is not. I work on a daily basis, trying to improve myself, making a commitment to the world that I will help make this world a better place for all to live. This is not always easy, especially driving…

This past weekend was spent on the road, officiating another soccer tournament. I have been separated from my wonderful partner for twelve days. She finally arrived at her boat yesterday morning and that is also where I am at. It is wonderful to be back together with her again. I enjoy our brief moments together….

There are some extremely religious people who believe that the creator controls their lives no matter what. I like to believe that the creator has a plan, shows us a few choices within our lives and then moves accordingly. I like to say that I have created myself in my own image, because every choice…

This past weekend I officiated thirteen games at a soccer tournament in Oceanside California; according to my watch I ran a little over 35 1/2 miles over a period of two days.

Yep, I sure am grateful for confidence. When I walk through a Distribution Center, talking with employees and management, I am confident that I am very good at what I do; that I bring a certain value to the clients that I am working with. I am confident that the people that I work with…

This morning I took a quick walk on a paved trail that runs behind the house of one of my uncles. It was quite and relaxing. Last night we sat out on his back patio, eating ice cream and blueberries, watching the owls and bats fly around us. Earlier this morning I was watching the…

This past weekend several of my cousins, my brother and sisters and I all joined together at the domain of one cousin. We barbecued, swam and spent a lot of time talking and catching up. Later that night my brother, sisters and I spent the night at my older sister’s residence; it was the first…
