The Day Ahead

A Brand New Me

I mentioned on Saturday that, “I am even more of a Geezer today” and I hinted there would be more later. It’s later. You see, I turned 56 on Saturday. I didn’t run out and buy a new Testerossa (not that I could afford the key fob for one. Besides, a classic Mustang or ‘Vette … Continue reading

Pray For Me

It’s the day after Thanksgiving — Black Friday. I have to go to the store. Not for any great bargains, but to get cat food, dog food, milk, shampoo, etc. This shouldn’t take long. On a different note, Happy Birthday to the next Senator from Florida — Adam Hasner. Well, here goes nothing. Pray for … Continue reading

An Update

I haven’t mentioned this in a few weeks, so I want to bring you a quick update. Most of all I want to say how much I appreciate all those who have donated so far. I do not have words adequate to say how much I thank each of you for what you’ve done. As … Continue reading

Just To Let You Know

I did get Up Before Dawn yesterday morning, fully intending to find some good posts for the First Cup. Well, it just didn’t work out that way. You see, my internet provider (which will remain nameless) had a bit of an outage. I found out that it started around 4am and lasted until the time … Continue reading

The weather is about to change. I know it was around 90 today in Florida, and it will probably be around 90 again tomorrow, but it’s about to get cooler. It may be a week, perhaps two, but it will start getting cooler. How do I know, you ask? It is based on science every … Continue reading

Changing Routine

It’s that time of year again — School Time! During the summer I could sleep late and leave for work as early as I wanted. Of course I usually waited until the last minute so I didn’t end up with overtime. Still, I could have left earlier, if I had wanted too. The biggest challenge … Continue reading

A Strange Thursday Morning

This isn’t X-Files strange, just a day or so of oddness. And maybe that’s not really the right term. Let me put it this way, I am extremely predictable. I take the same route to work, watch the same shows on TV, I’ve even caught myself wearing the same shirt the same day every week. … Continue reading
