Two years ago, my mom passed after a a nearly decade long up and down battle with cancer. I finally find myself moving in a better direction after her loss, and didn't realize how much her loss would affect me and my family. I'm working on maintaining this improvement plan we enacted and have a l

Anyone know why the @Anonymous account was suspended here? It says impersonation, but I'm guessing multiple logins from varying locations?

The pro-Palestine movement across the nation had s choice to make and so far, the collective is moving toward jumping into dangerous waters. What sympathy they have gained by obvious failures of Netanyahu's handling of the Gaza war, they will lose as antisemitism permeates their ranks.

I'm finally getting around to The Nun 2 (2023). So far, somewhat underwhelming, but not completely bad.

I figured out the walks I take (about 25 mins long) while my kids are in their MMA classes, is approximately 1⅓ mis. I'm trying to add more dog walks to supplement this and track my ongoing efforts.

Doc called with my blood work numbers. A1C fell .1! Lower cholesterol (was already low), with all other numbers fell as well! All this working out and eating well is working! Who knew?

I'm not saying, NP/PA's know more than MD's, but anecdotally, I can say that my experiences with an NP/PA have all been excellent. They tend to listen and respond to my questions informatively and with great care. Not to say my doctors have been worse but I appreciate the level NP/PAs have gone.

Had to remove two trees from the property that were dying. One which a mourning dove couple had made a home. Poor thing kept coming back to the spot wondering where the tree was. In a couple days we'll replace new bushes there and will setup a bird house in the other trees we have and will plant.

After getting bloodwork done, I always find myself needing a little sweet snack. Oh man. Why did I eat that entire candy bar.

Wow, so there really is something to the whole "diet and exercise" thing. Left the doc with superb blood pressure (for me anyway) and was told I'm doing everything right! Well, I know I'm playing racquetball or tennis later today for sure!

In looking through my books, I was reminded that Vader was redeemed to the Light as Anakin once again. Looking back in the timeline, redemption is possible for any Jedi turned Sith. Look at the Grand Inquisitor. He was the one who made Kannan Jarrus a Jedi Knight. All part of the training?

The only difference between a coordinated attack like the one in Moscow and any week in the US, is coordination. Other than that, mass shootings are a weekly occurrence. By 15 Feb, almost 5,000 people had died in the US from gun violence this year already.
