Some poignant ponderings of any given day.
It’s another late night post after a long day. That seems to be the mode of late. I want to get something written up about a topic or my day, and the words don’t develop until after 10 p.m. I wish I could get past that. Still, today was a good day, if only...

After a decent day at work yesterday, I had a serendipitous time with a friend of mine from the dance club and church. Last week, I went to Thearith and Daing’s house for a spring roll dinner, and my friend Gwen came over as well. Well, she had brought a chicken salad, which she...

Good morning. It was a good weekend, although much of Saturday could be taken off the books. Friday night, Sagebrush Highland had a swim party at the Highland High pool, and we had a great turnout. Games were played, prizes were given, and seven people were baptized. One gal wasn’t even planning to be...
Read more →It was rough getting up this morning at 5:45 when the alarm went off. I was in such a deep sleep and dreaming that it took me a few moments to realize it was going off. Even then, my body didn’t want to move. Kurt, my running buddy, felt the same way getting up...
Read more →Tonight I had great experience with a couple from my small group, and another friend from my dance group and church. I have mentioned the husband of the couple before, but they need a better introduction. Both he and his wife are amazing people. Anyways, they had myself and our friend Gwen over for...
Read more →On Monday night at my small group, we dove in a little into Acts when it was generically asked, “What in your reading stood out to you?” To try and highlight life changing concepts from a summary reading of the 28 chapters of the book is a challenge. Still, some interesting thoughts were shared....
Read more →Tonight was a much more productive night than last night- I actually had some energy. And I felt a little better than this morning. After work, I stopped by Smith’s to pick up some groceries, and ended up with pretty much all fruits and vegetables. After last weekend with all of its sugars and...
Read more →It’s about 10 AM this morning, and I am back at work after an extended weekend. I feel pretty much today like the sky was this morning when I got up: dark, a bit on the cold side, and partly cloudy with a decent chance of precipitation. Sometimes for me, it’s simply a fight...
Read more →Yesterday, my folks, my bro and his family, and myself trekked up to Denver to see our Pummel aunt, uncle, cousins, and our cousin Darci for the weekend (reason forthcoming). The drive up was quiet. Once we got up here, we all collected at Jer and Amy’s and then broke up to run some...
Read more →It was a pretty good day today. It was a challenging evening, but it was a day full of grace. At work, I just worked on building an addition to a school capacity calculating app that one of our clients. I am really just retrofitting part A to handle data related to part B,...
Read more →This weekend, much like last weekend, was a celebration of relationships. The highlights of my weekend featured time with my friends and family. I mean, come on, how can I top this? On Friday night after work I did my regular Graham’s hitch to socialize and dance and shed the tension of the work...
Read more →Today was a pretty good day: I made some progress at work on creating a generic form generator that can update any table tied to a selected database, including setting some parameters on form fields and placing some checks on numerical fields. This little app can change how quickly building a backend administration area...
Read more →For whatever reason, I was so wasted last night. I was in bed by 9:30 PM (which is early for me) and I slept fairly solidly until 7:00 this morning. I’ve been dealing with sleepiness between 2 and 3 each day this week, even though I drink coffee in the morning and eat a...
Read more →After a great weekend away with my brother and his gals in Colorado, it was kind of hard to go back to work this morning. It probably didn’t help that I didn’t get last night’s post finished until 1:30 AM. That’ll take you out a bit in the morning. I do remember having two...
Read more →After working full days on Saturday and Sunday, work has slowed down a little, allowing me a chance to pause and think a bit about life as another birthday approaches and breezes by on the road of life. Time moves so quickly. My friend Chris reminded me on Sunday night that, on that day,...
Read more →It’s been a long short weekend. Between yesterday and today, about 15 hours of it was spent at the office, coding, trying to get a web project ready for presentation to a state agency tomorrow morning. It’s been a little stressful, but the site is a good demonstration of what we can do in...
