Day 356: Empty
My calendar was empty today. To be honest, it’s always a little hard for me to be at loose ends. Today was one of those days–nothing planned, no events, no pressing work deadlines. It was just a day. I read … Continue reading
Day 351: Procrastinate
Yup, I’m putting off for tomorrow what I could be doing today. But let me explain. I’m single parenting again. My wife went down to her mother’s house a few days ago, and I will be following shortly with the … Continue reading
Day 337: Apportion

Day 243: Clean
No, not household cleaning. Something far more fun. I had an amazing day outdoors today. Some friends from Atlanta spent the long weekend in North Carolina climbing in Linville Gorge. We met up with them today to climb at Table … Continue reading
