    Did today really happen?

    Big things happened today. Big things happened. I probably shouldn’t write about them publicly at this point because they’re so fresh and all the information hasn’t been pulled together yet, but damn… life is always seemingly so extra around me and my family. (And I was just starting to feel comfortable and okay with where…

  • Thinking About Life Goals

    Thinking About Life Goals

    In my last post, I talked about my desire to get to doing things. One of the reasons for that is to get past the “planning and preparation” stages that I so often eagerly jump into but just as often don’t progress beyond. Now, the reason for that is partly because I’m just that way…

  • Matthew’s Restart Plan

    Matthew’s Restart Plan

    My last post was two years ago (almost exactly). I’ve written a few draft posts in the intervening time, but haven’t completed any of them or felt comfortable what I ended up writing. So let’s ignore the time gap and jump back into things! Now that the COVID-19 pandemic is seemingly “over-ish”, you’re probably seeing…

    Today…was a day.

    This post was written after an intense Tuesday I had a few weeks ago. I didn’t finish writing it, but I decided to post it anyway. Oh, my goodness. What a wild day I had today. Care to hear the tale? 😬 Allow me to set the stage. There’s been a lot of dramatic changes…

    It’s a new season!

    Welcome to a brand-new season of life here in the after times! What a time, eh? I’m sitting here on the sofa; staring at the screen, considering what to write. There’s so much that I could write about, but where to start I don’t know. Much has changed in my life, yet much has stayed…

  • It’s been a long time…

    It’s been a long time…

    …but not that long. I’m back now and that’s what counts. Besides, I’ve been unable to blog for various reasons. Sounds like it’s time for an update! What’s new with me I think that I told you about leaving my job a few months ago due to health problems relating to my Crohn’s. Well, that’s…

  • Where to start?

    Where to start?

    I sometimes have high expectations for myself. 🤨 Okay… very high expectations. 😑 Yes, yes. I often have unrealistically high expectations for myself. This blog is one of those things. Even though I don’t end up putting too much effort into what I write on here (most things end up being silly and totally great!),…
