Just Get To Lunch
In boot camp and the subsequent schooling particularly akin to the Special Forces or Marine Corp branches, there is a lot of physical testing. However, as both the boys have learned, it’s actually not how physically strong you are, even if you are superior in all respects to all of your peers. Instead, it’s how well you can endure the mental aspect of the program.
In other words, are you going to quit?
How My Mind Fires
Yesterday, my dad sent a video suggestion out via email.
To it, a family member replied.
This sparked a fire in my head. I began typing a reply. It went on for a while.
I opted not to hit send as I doubted anyone in the “reply all” thread would care to stomach reading it.
So I thought I’d just put it on paper here and let anyone interested peer in this particular window of my mind.
“SERENITY NOW!”
I’m leaving the flower shop tonight after a long, frustrating day.
On my way out, I note that Joelle, my wife, has left her water bottle at the shop.
If you follow us, you know, our water bottles are crucial in our lives.
So….in an effort to help her out, trying to be the good guy that I wish to strive to be, I grab it.
My hands are already full, so I stick it under my arm.
Don’t Hit the Stop Sign
He really struggled with the concept. Through a series of ideas, finally, we found success.
Levi and I dressed Ed in every kind of imaginable padding.
Helmet, Face Guard from paint balling, water ski vest, elbow pads, knee pads, shin guards, wrist guards, jock strap, plastic jock cup to cover the weiner.
10 Rounds
10 rounds of ammunition seems to solve it all as far as the liberals are concerned regarding gun control.
I was watching a recently released debate Ben Shapiro was having with Piers Morgan. In it, they re-hash their gun debate from a number of years ago.
Should you want to seem them debating government and gun control, you can watch it at the end of this post.
Little Book People
Can I confess something to you?
I am Self Righteous.
I tend to think I am right on just about everything.
I hate to admit it. I am often wrong.
There. That’s on paper.
This past year has really put me on an edge.
Here’s why.
It’s Time for Gun Legislation!
Hi,
How are ya’?
Me? I’ve been working my rear end off installing a brand new rather large cooler in our flower shop. We turned it on yesterday. It’s something.
It’s a dream realized. A dream I have had for over 10 years. Finally. It’s accomplished. It’s realized.
What is it about realizing a success in something we have longed to see happen for such a lengthy period in years?
Not sure, but it’s great.
Be Careful What You’re Sellin’
On Saturday of last week, my wife, Joelle, sent me a link to an article on Foxnews. In it, the writer reports on a story about a Pastor in Missouri.
He has been suspended by the General Baptist Ministries Association and is currently undergoing “counseling”. Read- Reeducation.
Should you wish to see the story, and even watch the sermon bringing the wrath of the “woke” you can do so here.
This gentleman stands on a lot of nerves in this sermon. Some of which is not wrong. If you read my post on Gluttony, you will see in certain respects I agree with him.
Greed Is Destroying Us
I watched President Trumps full speech at CPAC on Sunday.
What an incredibly stark contrast to Joe “Dark Winter” Biden and his ability or lack thereof to orate. Holy man.
Travelin’ Van
As I wander the country to do photography, I have tried to make use of our 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan.
It’s become a pretty great van to travel in.
Comfortable to drive and plenty roomy to sleep in.
On the road, I absolutely love the Ford Transit larger van along with the Dodge Promaster series.
