Hard to believe, but December is here and the challenge I took on last January 1st, to do something outside of my comfort zone is almost over. I have, indeed, blogged everyday for eleven months and have only one more month to go. And will I have everything ready to publish by the end of […]

What a blah day. Woke up late. Never made it to the gym. Never even made it outside. Pretzels and lemonade for dinner. Why is it that some days just sap your energy so nothing gets done? Here’s where being a retired senior really comes in handy. There’s nothing I really have to do in […]

The wife is off babysitting and I’m here alone, so I spent the evening re-editing Part One of The Handbook. It’s looking good. Now it’s on to parts 2 and 3 and getting it all out there on the web. Don’t think too much, fella. Just do it. Oh yes. I also sent out a copy […]

And so it continues. Life goes on in the same direction it has been going, except for the growing number of aches, pains, and medical conditions that seem to be grabbing my attention. I guess I must be getting older. peace………ag

Just to clarify something from yesterday’s post when I talked about ‘living in this body’. Obviously, that’s what I’ve been doing all along, ever since I’ve been born. And for the first 37 years of my life, like just about everyone else on this planet, I’ve assumed that this body and mind and emotions and […]

So here’s my new take on pot. Yes, I have smoked it in the past and found it moved my ‘I’ from just being inside this piece of meat known as Anton to being the “I” at the start of and throughout the universe. However, since I now know that’s who ‘I’ really am, there appears to […]

And so it goes. Off to do hospice today, knowing that this may be the last time for months that I will actually be driving to patient’s homes… also knowing that I may actually have epilepsy… also knowing that I may never smoke pot again… also knowing that I sent an absolutely idiotic email to […]

Off to the doctor today to find out what showed up in the MRI and EEG. I’ll be back. And, in fact, I am back with info that the MRI showed some brain atrophy that is consistent with epilepsy. So now it’s off to the specialist to look into this even further. peace……….ag

Eight years ago today, my mother died. I was at her side, performing therapeutic touch as she laid there in a coma. In keeping with her wishes, her body was cremated and small amounts of her… stored in single serving Tabasco Sauce bottles… have been given to family members who have sprinkled her from hot […]

It’s only 12:30 in the afternoon, and I’ve already gone to yoga and done sun salutes… shopped Trader Joe with Emma… come home and put the food away… decanted a cup of yesterday’s coffee… changed into my camo gear… and here I am standing at the computer… nothing to do for the next couple of hours but […]
