Taking the day off, spirit

Squirrel hanging from tree limb
Because i’m outside so many hours everyday i see a lot of wildlife. Three crows chased a Red-Shouldered Hawk to the tree above me. The Hawk put the dead squirrel here and took off.

Taking the day off from blogging.

Yeah, like that’s ever gonna happen.

Awake at 5:00am.

Some life-admin stuff, etc.

Early and short walk, then more challenges before arriving to a Podiatrist appointment. Then monthly allergy shot. Then Lowes for a hedge-trimmer. Then Epcot to test new Disney Cast Member lifetime passes before we go to Paris.

Then gas, carwash, home to begin an all-day continuation of the slow and steady cleanup from an epic and severe three-day extensive freeze two months ago.

Then family dinner and a Frasier episode from Season 1 (Ep 18).

Blogging’s hidden blessing, spirit

young son on father's back
Daily, prolific blogging can eventually feel like a monkey on your back. Hopefully it’s Curious George, or Chapin.

Cheryl eating our signature peanut butter, banana, and honey sandwich. We used our bicycle panniers as our sandwich preparation countertop. On our honeymoon, bicycling through the Puget Sound before biking across Washington State. Blogging allows me the blessing of sharing what i want, when i want, in the way i want. Blogging allows me to do this prolifically too.

Began Blogging In 2nd Grade. Guess who started him on this path.

Dear Son, to me, blogging’s hidden blessing is its love for the writer.

Dear Son, loving yourself first teaches you how to love others.

Dear Son, teaching yourself first teaches you how to teach others.

Dear Son, forgiving yourself first teaches you how to forgive others.

Dear Son, being patient with yourself first teaches you how to be patient with others.

Dear Son, caring for your emotional health first, well, it teaches you how to care for others.

Dear Son, serving yourself first teaches you how to serve others.

i love Apple Notes

i love Apple Notes.

My iPhone is always with me.

And my backup iPhone is never far away.

Apple Notes allows for anytime, anywhere productivity to record or write ideas as they come. Whether a new idea or an additional idea on an existing idea.

Apple Notes allows me to scan and save documents, record and store videos, take and store photos, use voice dictation, and even forward any note to anyone, for any reason. Notes also helps me create game plans for trips, speeches, client calls, home organization records,, etc. Literally anything.

It’s like always have in your pocket a pen and paper, a camera, a scanner, and portable fax (remember those?).

Apple Notes is indispensable.

i love book publishing

i love book publishing.

Why.

Because a book is something anyone can build (write).

Publishing is a way to “go on the record” that these are my thoughts.

How many what?

Disney Customer Service Keynote speaker in Finland
August 2009. Masters Track and Field World Championships. Jack (Teddy Bear) is my body guard.

How do you measure fruitful and abundant (aka ‘prolific‘)?

Counting is one way. And adding up the totals:

How many published blog posts?

How many words?

How many days?

How many years.
