Throughout the Comcast Saga, I did managed to get some work done on “If By Reason of Strength…” I did about 500 words and I’ve now completed the first 3 sections of the story. More tomorrow. The Comcast Saga screwed up my workout plan for today. Not only did I not end up getting a…
So they still haven’t shown up. I’ve been on the phone 2 more times. I finally told them to forget it tonight, seeing as how I am supposed to be in bed in 10 minutes so that I can get up at 4:30 tomorrow morning. We are rescheduled for delivery next Wednesday between 5 –…

I’ve repeated myself a lot today and so please excuse the compactness that following. I’m just trying to bring everyone up-to-speed with a minimum of frustration to myself.

I did a little bit of work on “If By Reason of Strength…” this evening, about 350 words or so. The pace of the story is moving a bit slowly, but at this point, I’m just trying to get the story out. I can tighten it up once I’ve got the first draft written. I…
I am a firm believer in the Golden Rule, which when properly stated, is roughly: “Treat other people the way you would want to be treated” (but is often misstated as: “Treat other people the way that they treat you.”) It is because of my firm belief in the Golden Rule that I did not…
I’ve decided that one of the absolutely best feelings in the world is walking outside from the gym after a good workout and hot shower, when the outdoor temperature is about 28 degrees. The cold air in your lungs, and on your skin feels amazing. I have a short walk outdoors from my gym to…
I’ve decided to restart my workout count, since there was a long enough gap between workouts to warrant starting from fresh, and since I am more focused now than I was before (I think). So yesterday’s workout was #1 which makes this mornings workout #2. I was up at 4:30 AM, had breakfast and then…
