Grateful Blog: Day 59: Today I’m Grateful for my neighbors. All of ‘em. This morning my neighbor across the street, ‘Whitey’, backed up and ran over his garbage can with his Crown Victoria. Whitey’s just a shade over 80 now and his Parkinson’s, poor eyesight and sciatica/back problems are slowing him down. I ran across the street to help him …
Grateful Blog: Day 58: I was still sick today, stuck inside listening to the radio and there was a raging debate on the school shooting inOhioand just what drives kids to do that sort of thing. I don’t know. It’s really saddening. And I have nothing to offer because it’s baffling to me and frankly I never had kids so …
Grateful Blog: Day 57: I’m sicker today than I was yesterday or Friday. Damn flu of some sort…It was a crazy week, starting with the amazing CD release show last Saturday night to the hospital tests on Tuesday to the flu and then today… Today I found out today by complete accident that my song ‘Lost and Found’ (on ‘Ash …
Grateful Blog: Day 56: Still feeling the latent effects of the flu today but I managed to get out for a few hours. I had to. There was a train show in town. Basically a show devoted to model train fans and train lovers of all ages. There’s ever imaginable train related thing from toy trains to giant computerized running …
Grateful Blog: Day 55: I went to bed sick. I woke up sicker. It shouldn’t surprise me; it’s that time of year you know. And besides, I was in the hospital on Tuesday, surrounded my germs and God knows what else. The thing is I ALWAYS seem to get sick when stress is the worst (who doesn’t?) and usually that …
Grateful Blog: Day 54: There are little signs of Spring all around. The snowdrops blooming, the air warming, and a this sense that the darkness of Winter is lifting. It’s still gray, gray, gray and rainy, rainy, rainy but…but it SEEMS brighter somehow. For me though there are several distinct signs of Spring that I look forward to. One is …
Grateful Blog: Day 53: Today was one of those crazy near-Spring days. The wind blew all night and all through the morning and the rain was followed by sun, rain, sun, rain, sun, rain, sun, rain…This morning I went to work, trusty old straw Stetson on my hat—keep the rain off you know, and the first thing that happened when …
Grateful Blog: Day 52: I don’t normally fall asleep in the middle of the day but today I did. I woke up groggy and a bit perplexed but the news was good. Back in December I starting having weird issues stomach issues in relation to an ongoing battle with acid reflux that seemed to have morphed into sudden weight loss …
Grateful Blog: Day 51: President’s Day. Living in thePacific Northwestis a unique experience. I candidly tell anyone who’ll listen how much I hate the weather. I do. It’s gray. It’s wet. And it lasts for about 8 months like that. But there are things that 22+ years of living in thePacific Northwestthat I’ve embraced. They’re funny things. Like how we …
Grateful Blog: Day 50: There’s so very much to be Grateful for today. Last night I was literally on Top of the World. The CD release show for ‘Ash and Bone’ was AMAZING! to say the least. I could not have enjoyed a crowd, a venue, a show or a night more than I did last night. To EVERYONE who …
