“This is the beginning of a new day. God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it or use it for good. What I do today is very important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever, leaving something in its place I have traded for it. I want it to be a gain, not a loss – good not evil. Success, not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price I paid for it.” – Heartsill Wilson
“Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you’ll look back and realize they were big things.” – Robert Brault
Have Goals! Live your life with goals. Cross things off your list, add new things, repeat! I’m an old man with ADHD who is always in chase of his next BHAG (Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal). I might move quickly from topic to topic, but they all interweave together into this thing called life. I only…
Two things left: 1) Sell everything in the Wild West of Marketplace (the wildest place on earth). 2) Speaking of the Wild West, I then needed to load up the Bronco. The Bronco was being a little feisty in the wet weather and did not want to get on the trailer nicely! Bad Bronco! In…
The hard work SHOULD have been done. I’d already fought with the tractor to get it going again. Today is moving day, and she started right up. Good…Check! But then I, inexplicably, ran out of gas halfway onto the trailer?!? So what should have been an easy project turned into a debacle. Honestly, fairly typical,…
Old fuel left me with a big chore. I have to get my old John Deere tractor started so I can move it out of the farm building. After 25 minutes of solid cranking, I was not denied. She FINALLY started! I’m also pretty sure I almost had a heart attack. Regardless, the first step…
Why I Run A Node My node died a year or so ago (the computer it was running on died), and I never brought it back online…yet. I hadn’t really had much urgency until I started noodling on the Bitcoin Core post v.30 / Knots / BIP-110 issue. I’ve done a good deal of research…
Last year, this bed was an emergency project (disaster). This year, it was only slightly better. So, this year I reshaped everything and installed a clean edge. I have it in good shape now and ready for fall planting. Next year, we will no longer be an embarrassment to our community! LOL
While we visited Destin, we took a day trip over to Navarre Beach to see the longest pier in the Gulf (and to find the most peaceful beach in the Panhandle just past Navarre). Navarre Beach had a relaxed vibe. We’ll probably visit the area again one day.
