It’s Halloween night! We’re out of candy! Gramma is asleep in a recliner with Lucy and Freya sleeping with her. I’m watching a show I like “Forged in Fire”… a knife/weapon-making competition. I’ve had a good day. Class went pretty well, and all of my students seem to be doing ok. I’m a bit tired. …

Day 19,766
Hey guys, just doing a little writing on a Monday night, Chiefs are hosting the Broncos on Monday Night Football, and the Chiefs are up 29-13 in the fourth quarter. I’m thinking the Chiefs look good to win tonight. My wife is back from her little excursion to Washington, DC. I joked and asked her …

Day 19,765
Another Sunday evening, and I obviously have a little writing to do. Hi future family members. I’ve been getting ready for my class today, and I really haven’t spent a lot of time doing anything that falls into the “fun” category. I’m a technical trainer by profession. I guess I fall somewhere between a high school teacher …

Day 19,764
Hey, gang, I’m back. Writing and eating some breakfast cereal at 10:00 at night to try and bump up my blood sugar level so my body overreacts and puts me to sleep here in another half an hour… unless gramma wants to keep me up a little longer, and that’s another story for another time …

Day 19,763
OK, time to invoke my 12-hour waiver. I was up late last night, waiting on kids to get home, did some driving, and it was after midnight before I hit the hay, so this is my makeup blog post. What’s happening in the world today Well, at least two indictments (sealed) have come down from the …

Day 19,762
Hey kids! It’s a Thursday here in Larryville (stop and think about it, “Larry” is an abbreviation for the name “Lawrence”, and “ville” is a suffix associated with towns or villages, so “Larryville” is a slang term for Lawrence… happy to share). Looks like Gramma and I will be spending this Christmas in the house …

Day 19,761
Ah, decisions, decisions. Some days I hate having to make decisions. Last decision I felt really good about was the decision to stick with quilted two-ply toilet paper. Now, your grandmother and I have to worry about all the little decisions having to do with selling our home. Some folks are interested. Dammit. I was …

Day 19,760
Hi guys, old fat Grampa here again. Some of you are going to be a little introverted, some of you might be a little more outgoing. I’m a little bit of both, believe it or not. I’m what some people call an ‘ambivert’. There are times I am as outgoing as the day is long …

Day 19,759
It’s been a real Monday here in Larryville, with lots of news from the upswing and the downswing of various this and that. I’m working on getting ready for a revised Microsoft Azure class next week (OK… I know you probably haven’t a care in the world about what I do professionally. Suffice it to …

Day 19,758
Hey gang! I’m back, writing another entry in what we call a “blog”. I’ve got the TV going on some historical entertainment TV explaining the way the ancient Romans lived, and my wife, your Gramma Lisa, is asleep in a chair with two small furballs curled up with her on the leg rest. We started the …
