Keep Calm And Knock Firmly

Posted on September 11, 2024

This is what you do when you are accidentally locked out of your own house. Long story, but after an extra long day of work, I arrived home in the wee hours and could not get in.

I was texting, calling, FaceTiming, WhatsApp-ing, knocking and a variety of other things. Note to self, doorbell needs new batteries!

After 30 minutes, with my patience waning, and the cold was locked into my hands and feet, and moving higher, I tried one last firm knocking beat on the front window…

With no discernible difference inside, I turned to go sleep in the car or find a hotel room for the remainder of the night. But then voilá. My lovely wife appeared at the door and sweetly let me in.

Keep calm and knock firmly saves the day!

Enjoy Your Summers!

Posted on September 2, 2024

Summer can be such a lovely time of year, depending on what your local weather pattern is like. I really enjoy summer. The heat is nice. So is going out in my shorts and a short-sleeved shirt.

When you think about it, you get about 75 summers, if you’re lucky. You may get 20 more, or 20 less. In addition, the first five to 10 years should have been great, but hard to remember.

Since I’ve had quite a few summers, I’ve got fewer left ahead of me. For this reason alone, I say, enjoy your summers!!!

Be Positive

Posted on August 19, 2024

Are you generally a positive, upbeat type of person? Do you complain about what’s wrong and unfair and needs to change? Maybe it’s your attitude.

Being positive is usually just a matter of training your mind. Of course, you can train it to be negative, or to complain, just as easily. But, you’ll start gravitating to people who are like that too.

You may have noticed that complainers complain and that birds of a feather flock together. Be mindful of which groups you belong to.
