Who are you posing for?

Who are you posing for?

And when i say posing, i mean all of your actions.

Be the dog

Three Yellow Labs in our life. One at a time for 27 years.

My goal in life is to be the kind of person my dog thinks i am.

Note: We have been dog-less for a decade. The goal hasn’t changed.

The wild helps me at home

broken car interior door handle
Interior driver’s seat car door handle broke a few days ago. Figured out how to still make it work. Had i not, would have had to craw across the center console and exit from the front passenger door. Or, craw out the driver’s seat window.

Passenger side. This is what the broken door handle used to look like.
26-second video: Only life’s essentials. But the million-dollar question is, “What should i pack?” The wilderness classroom teaches willing students what is essential and what is not. A car that runs is essential. A new car is not. Have never owned a new car. The car door handle that broke is 35 years old.

The wild helps me at home.

Big time (btw).

How? Why?

How? Well, the wild is the wild. You can’t go into the wild with much. Why? Because all you have access to is whatever fits in your pack. The size of the pack you’re willing to carry is the bottomline.

Why? Well, the wild teaches me a cosmic truth. Ensure you are fully prepared before you pack your pack (life) with non-essentials.

Peace is being caught up

GoDaddy admin panel
Bottomline, this means i cannot get into my house. i’m locked out. The website is visible to everyone, but i cannot get inside “the house, my house”. No entry means no blog writing. Lets’s hope this doesn’t last longer than 24 hours or a 5,000+ day writing streak will fall.
post it note with handwritten notes
Michael at GoDaddy (from cold Tennessee) was exceptional. Nearly every call i have with GoDaddy is exceptional. And there have been hundreds of calls since 2008.

Michael from GoDaddy recommended i save a ‘hard copy’ of the daily WordPress backups. i tried and didn’t find it successful. i need the 20-gig file (times 5 blogs = 100 gigs) to be stored in the cloud, not the Laptop, as he suggested. Perhaps an external hard drive? Hmmm.

The longer i live, the more this seems like a singular key:

Peace is being caught up.

Of course, this assumes you are positive, healthy, at peace, making an artful contribution, and making decisions using prioritized priorities.
