Shouldering on. My shoulder seems to be getting better, slowly. I think it is back to where it was before I stumbled at the bottom of the stairs. And crushed part of my guitar. That was actually the third time I have messed up my shoulder and rotator cuff. The first time was about 30 years ago when I slipped on the… Read more →

Updates: New Year’s
New Year. Looking back, there were a few times that Kathy and I went out and really celebrated the New Year. Most years we stayed home and had a glass of wine.

What kind of idiot travels to an open mic the night before Thanksgiving?
That would be me. I had the news on during the day: Trump this. Trump that. Thanksgiving. Airports. Highways. Shopping. More Trump. Terror threats. I had wrapped up a bunch of my design work for Butler Hospital. This coming week looked like it could be busy. I had my two pies finished for Thanksgiving. Chocolate pecan pie with Nutella with a melted… Read more →
