Well, That Didn’t Work…
If there were a biography about you, what would the title be? Well, That Didn’t Work… But That Did! I have made my share of mistakes in life. But there are things that have worked. And the mistakes I’ve made are all part of what has made me who I am today. So in a…

Gravity
If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why? I used to play a lot of Minecraft. My kids got me into it, and we’ve spent countless hours on there, literally hundreds, even through COVID, when we’d hop on our server and play and chat over Discord. There were…

Dream Home
Write about your dream home. It would have lots of sunlight… Trees all around… Like black walnut, and weeping willow… A lilac bush and a garden… But the best part of it would be the people that would be there. That’s what makes my dream house a home. 🙂 What would be in your dream…

If I Got Great News…
I’d share it! I’d be texting and calling my family. My friends. I’m not much of a social media sharer these days, but I keep in close touch with the ones that matter most to me. 🙂 What would you do?

Lottery
Have you ever heard about those studies where they say that lottery winners are miserable? Apparently it is false (see Forbes link below). I was under the impression that once people won the lottery, they probably felt really great for a month or two, and then after experiencing all of the troubles that potentially come…

Fun Time
Things I like to do for fun! Aside from hanging out with fam and friends: I’ll be the first to admit that I have too many hobbies and things I like to do for fun. I can’t wait to see what everyone posts on this one! Have a good weekend all! Stay safe if you’re…

Don’t Bark at the Amish Horses (They Don’t Care)
My dog, when he was alive, loved to bark at the Amish buggies and horses, that would trot up and down our road multiple times every day. He was a herder. He loved to chase things that were on the move, no matter what they were. It was more than “loved to”- he was born…

Good Leaders
A good leader- Shows and doesn’t tell (they don’t have to). Leads by example. Is strong and kind. Knows what is important. Knows how to apologize. And knows when to admit that they were wrong. Good leaders inspire others to do the right thing. Last night, one of my local radio stations played some of…
