jouRNalDAY

10-18-25 08:41, up and heading to coffee.  Are we bringing Oliver, the Nurse asked.  I expressed indifference, which means I’d rather not.  Only ‘cause he gets excited and anxious and panicky when in sight of other dogs. Behind on wedding countdown project.  Need to be better.  Tending to now. 10:27 back at house.  Coffee and…

Still Tired from the Drive — 09:44

Still wrecked from yesterday’s road trek-sail — miles and madness, fucking 101 Peninsula traffic, gas station Diet Coke, and some talk radio chatterbox screaming about the end of traditional advertising. Home now. Working. Or performing the ritual theater of IT.  My IT.Calendar’s mercifully thin — a couple things to swat at later. How long was…

New Plan for a New Week — 14:41

New plan, again.  New week.  Same brain squatters.  Fucking rent-free parasites – loud, and ungrateful as ever. Other energies — the uninvited guests of thought — have dragged their rusty-ass 1970s-looking lawn chairs into my thinking again, arguing about nothing, drinking my pricier wines.  Devils. Me — trying to hold a meeting with myself on…

FALL’d jouRNal

10-12-25 08:46 Up. Getting ready. Feeling better. Off to coffee.  Morning is fall in the air the colors and how the sky is set.  Everything is lighter but more pronounced and vibrant. Slow moving out the door. No rush. Happiness, imagine THAT. Yesterday, meditative, seeing myself get stuck because of my own thinking and excess…

10-11-25

01:08 Awake Nurse called in.  She’s home now and trying to go back to sleep.   Me, after some espresso.  She requests I stay and I do.. . always do what my Queen orders.  Window open, no light.  Meditative, investing scene.  First of such.  We joke… she calls me stubborn after she texts me to…

jouRNal, yesterday

16:16, make a wish.  Class over for nearly two hours.  Emails sent, and me wrapping day.  Still in running clothes.  Well, shorts anyway.  Going to store in a bit.  Missing my kids, terribly.  It’s crippling, if you need know.  But now, I shift all gears, to the Story I need tell.. focus on my peace,…

10-4-25 – Meant

15:14 Vacaville. Typing on the floor, Nurse readying for her night with the girls.  All I can feel is gratitude and amazement in the realization that I have everything I need.  Mindful, moment I’m in, all of them… blazing in truth. Stress, now, NONE.  I disallow its power and presence, any relevance or application.  Drive…

7-12-25

Saturday.  I think. Not sure what the day is and it doesn’t matter.  And honestly getting sick of tracking time, giving it so much weight and importance, so much pull on perception. Nurse taking a shower, me typing at the desk in our room for the first time in….  New tattoo yesterday.  The most magnificent…

Today is DAY ONE.

It always is. An opportunity, and opening, a GIFT. Go see what the day wants to teach you.
