Hola, folks, For all my grand speech yesterday, today was... just another Monday of the same old same old in a lot of ways. There were a few things that were different. I didn't get up at 5. I was wasted. But I did get up at 5:45, to continue my streak of bumping back … Continue reading 2020-10-12 — Just Another Monday

Hi, folks. 😊 I hope you've had an absolutely beautiful Sunday/Sabbath. 😊 It's been another good day over here on my end. It's interesting, though. I find myself in a rather odd state of emotions. I'm not sure if this particular state has a name or not. Perhaps you can clue me in if it … Continue reading 2020-10-11 — Special Connections

Well, folks... I have a confession. Please don't think ill of me. I... just... couldn't. I thought I could. I was planning on it. It seemed like nothing. I'd done it so many times before, but the last couple were... ugh. And this very last one. I just... can't. So... that leaves me with a … Continue reading 2020-10-10 — Spaghetti & Meatballs

Would I be right if I guessed that you're wondering what craziness I tried to drink in a smoothie today? 😁 We'll get to that... 😉 Aaaaaaanyway, hola, my lovely peopleses, And a happy Friday to you!!! 😊 Let's see. I got up at 6:30 with my alarm (success! 😊). And tonight I'll be in … Continue reading 2020-10-09 — Conquering Cory

So... I found an ingredient that's a little too potent--at least such that a whole can of it ain't 'tall what the doctor ordered 'round here. Who would have thought that canned corn would be so overpowering to the other flavors? Granted, I didn't have as many other things in there as I often do … Continue reading 2020-10-08 — Ixnay on the Orncay

Nothing glamorous today, just steady forward progress. But I like steady forward progress. 😊 And speaking of... it's 9 p.m. right now, and I'm writing in my journal!! And that's after spending an hour weed eating up by the barn in preparation for the pigs that the family here is going to start raising, that's … Continue reading 2020-10-07 — Steady Forward Progress

Man, these bean smoothies are filling! The one in front of me right now is super good, too. Can of black beans, two bananas, a whole ton of peanut butter, and however much pineapple juice is in a can of pineapple rings. Super good. Super filling. I pretty much never have to save any for … Continue reading 2020-10-06 — Dialing In

Holar, peeps! Happy Monday 😊. Let's see... I took it easy today, choosing to do only one car myself and sort of... making it a leisurely day in some respects. I didn't get much of anything done, given how little I had to do, but... that's okay. It's nice to have a slower day. I'm … Continue reading 2020-10-05 — Positive Progress

I believe it was sometime in the Spring or early summer of 2018 that, after having been a temple worker at the Kansas City, Missouri temple for a handful of months perhaps, I relapsed in my pornography/masturbation addiction. That was devastating for me. Working in the temple was one of the most joyful and rewarding … Continue reading 2020-10-04 — Forward With Faith

Hiya, folks 😊. It's late, 12:28 a.m., so I'm gonna make this brief. It's been a long day. It was nice to be able to listen to General Conference. I appreciated that. Good stuff. #1. I'm grateful to have headphones, good phone reception, and decent streaming quality (the last one a consequence of the Church … Continue reading 2020-10-03 — Sliding Toward Veggie
