This week's fitness tracking will have all the usual stats and corresponding observations, along with one new revelation. It will also talk about the sleep tracking portion of the Misfit Shine app. So first I want to talk about the sleep tracking app. The first night I used the Misfit it told me I had … Continue reading Fitness Update:Sleep Tracking
The Lord Is Risen!
HE IS RISEN INDEED! Such is the traditional Easter Greeting. Today being Easter, I am taking some time off from my journey through the Hymnbook feature to put up some Easter-themed music. The first clip is actually from our Maundy Thursday church cantata. My son is the narrator, and the choir sings under the direction … Continue reading The Lord Is Risen!
Miracle on 34th Street
The day before Easter seems an odd time to do a post on a Christmas movie. But this is the time the DVD came from the library from my hold request I put in back in November. Unfortunately, or so I thought at first, it turned out to be the 1994 remake and not the original … Continue reading Miracle on 34th Street
A Blast of the Past #40: Thanksgiving 2000
My side of the family gets together every few years for Thanksgiving. It is our holiday to share from where we've been spread across the U.S. When it first started, I thought it was supposed to be every three years, but somewhere along the line that was changed and some people insist it was always … Continue reading A Blast of the Past #40: Thanksgiving 2000
The War on Boys
(I found this interesting ... and something faster to put up than my intended article on the false dichotomy of the alpha/beta male syndrome -- I'll have to save that for later.)

The second is the promo: our bell and chime choirs rehearsing for the processional they will do Easter Sunday morning. Feel free to stop by during either service, … Continue reading Easter Promo … come join us
fitness update: app issues
Well I am continuing to enjoy my Misfit Shine, but the app still does things that irritate me from time to time. I finally learned that I can change tagging activities without having to double sync, but I have to toggle screens and see the "saved changes" message or else it hasn't worked. My lap … Continue reading fitness update: app issues
#77: Sun of My Soul
(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith) 1 Sun of my soul, Thou Savior dear, It is not night if Thou be near; O may no earth-born cloud arise To hid Thee from thy servant's eyes! 2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep My … Continue reading #77: Sun of My Soul
If I don’t want you to like me, then you can’t ….
I know, twice in one week, do a shared post, unheard of by me. But I thought this one silly. The shared blog below shows that some people are afraid of being nominated by anyone who is in any way associated with the "Sad Puppy" movement. They are telling people they aren't allowed to nominate … Continue reading If I don’t want you to like me, then you can’t ….
