I talked last week about a mid-point to the Sabbatical. Well, we celebrated it, as we said, with LibertyCon in Chattanooga. Got to see a lot of friends and make new ones and we joined our "family ". One of the things we also did was acquire art work from our friend and artist/author Cedar … Continue reading Sabbatical Update: Liberty for all

Fitness Update: Leg not-exactly-cramps
This week was the trip to LibertyCon, which meant a hiatus in regular scheduled activities. But it didn't mean a lack of fitness attempts. I swam once, did a lot of walking, and while my sleep schedule was off kilter, managed to keep getting sleep and naps in between events to keep the energy and … Continue reading Fitness Update: Leg not-exactly-cramps
A Blast of the Past #145: Painting the Living Room
We started our house painting project back in 2012, it seems, with the first two walls of the living room. A wall a year was the plan, though we sped up at points since then.
A Look Ahead — LibertyCon
Trying to put together the list of upcoming events. It is currently skewed to very few things immediate and more things further out. Also most of the events come from a very small set of sources. Any suggestions to broaden the list is appreciated. June 29-July 1 — LibertyCon This small and size-limited annual sciene … Continue reading A Look Ahead — LibertyCon

Sabbatical Update: Launch to LibertyCon
Well, The Sabbatical is reaching a mid-point. No, we are still way before the quantitative half point. But we have reached a point where certain things are wrapping, and already the conclusion needs to be given serious consideration. The house has been put into shape, but the end clean-up still needs to be done. All … Continue reading Sabbatical Update: Launch to LibertyCon
Fitness Update: neatness and fitness
Well, this weekend the last of the current lost talents was found. The glasses are now safely in my possession again. And they were in a safe spot in the house, surrounded by too many other objects to be obviously noticed sooner. The loss of the talents brought to focus for me the way various … Continue reading Fitness Update: neatness and fitness
The King and I: Not your old Yul Brynner
We attended the final performance at Kansas City's Starlight of the King and I this past Sunday. And it was definitely a good show. One of the things that makes continuing a long-running show difficult is if it has had iconic stars with iconic performances that made/created the original roles. Both the rolls of Anna … Continue reading The King and I: Not your old Yul Brynner
#282: Hiding in Thee
(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith) 1 O safe to the Rock that is higher than I My soul in its conflicts and sorrows would fly, So sinful, so weary -- Thine, Thine would I be: Thou blest "Rock of Ages", I'm hiding in … Continue reading #282: Hiding in Thee
Sabbatical Update: Lost and Found
All the sweeping and searching doesn't always seem to find the lost Talent -- at least sometimes not for a long time. I have two items, one still in transit, one that was just found -- to illustrate this, either well or not. I had bicycle goals and tracked all the miles daily with an … Continue reading Sabbatical Update: Lost and Found
