(Note: Thank you to all by blog followers for your patience with me. I have fallen off the map with life this month, but hope to get back on course. I'm posting today, and hope to get consistently daily by the beginning of June.) Thursdays is usually my look ahead post. I'm taking the shortcut … Continue reading A Look Ahead: Ocean levels rise to cover Kansas City
Author: Sir Rhodri
Creational and relational type Renaissance man (writer, singer, thinker) holding to C.S Lewis's credo that if you follow truth originality takes care of itself, (anyway, originality is so yesterday, anyway.) That I have my wonderful wife Jasini is proof enough for me that life isn't fair. If it was fair I wouldn't have her, and instead she is my most faithful example that I am blessed beyond measure. My two adult children are the same unmerited blessing to me. We should all be thankful life is not fair but blessed.
Sabbatical Update: Birthday
This week ended today with the celebration of 52 years of my life. It was a blurry of fun, friends, family, shopping, just no cake.
Fitness Update: Schedule tweaking
Life has too many distractions, but all events are moving forward, if not as fast as planned. Working on a schedule keeps things moving. Though I have decided that I need to get up an hour earlier if I am to have any productive morning time. When your morning starts slipping, the comic song lyrics … Continue reading Fitness Update: Schedule tweaking
#276: In the Hour of Trial
(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith) 1 In the hour of trial, Jesus, plead for me Lest, by base denial, I depart from Thee; When Thou seest me waver, With a look recall, Nor for fear or favor Suffer me to fall. 2 With … Continue reading #276: In the Hour of Trial
Chicken report
Today's post is another short one, and an update on the food status at Worlds of Fun. Paisano's pizza does have pasta bowls in addition to pizza. At least if our sample today was accurate, they are satisfactory but nothing special: a bowl of noodles with alfredo or marinara sauce. But the chicken report is … Continue reading Chicken report

Sabbatical Update: Hiatus
Today isn't really as bad as it feels, but another convoluted mess going on. Going to skip writing about it and just try to take care of it.
Fitness Update: to the work
This week saw several members of the family take on seasonal employment with Worlds of Fun. I put this under fitness because it will mean miles of walking this summer, and good planning on what to eat.
