My internet was connected today. I opted for the 500 Mbps speed. It was there, so I had to. The highest speed I’ve had at any place I’ve lived was 50 Mbps. It’s stupid fast. It’s like internet should be no matter how many devices are connected. The game has changed.

I got to sit down with a young man for a few rounds of Chess. The game will help him slow down, process a situation, and respond as necessary. I was the same age (15-16 years old) when I saw the improvement in my focus on tasks and people. I know the developmental power Chess…

Today, one more reason to buy a set of Bluetooth earbuds crept into my thoughts: Continue listening to an audiobook while I’m in stores alone.

Yesterday, I got the keys to my new place. I’m officially an Alabama resident again. I’ve moved to Huntsville. I think it’s a solid Chess move. Also, I should probably hit up my Auntie and cousins and see who be cookin’ on Sundays.

I’m not saying I would be the greatest Con Artist. But I could probably make a living.

This morning, I got an idea to challenge my son’s vocabulary (and daughter once she’s reading) and also make the driving (visitation periods) less boring for them. It’s Word Search puzzles with a twist! Sure, I could let him solve the puzzles by looking for words from the list then circling them in the puzzle.…

I won’t be the dad that pushes his son into profession that his dad always wanted to have. But I will. I bought my children a magnet set to play with together. I deliberately bought the family size with 160 pieces of magnetic rods and steel balls. Here’s Where My Mouth Dropped I showed them…

I want to clone me to get more of my ideas pushing forward. Also, I think we would get in each other’s way, because we’re not a very organized. And since we’re not a very patient person, we’d have to work on projects independently because helping each other would last only as long as the…

This morning, the kids and I hurried out the door to be late for “the best part” of Sunday service according to my mom. I took the children to my mom’s church, because she asked me. She enjoys the people and services, and it’s a really nice church. It’s not the church walking distance from…

My little girl favors friction and challenging others’ ideas. One day her ideas might be the best ideas in the room. One day her opinions, admiration, or approval will be sought after. It’s up to me to help her direct that energy into constructive outcomes. She will be a person that’s compassionate and forgiving with…

My parents are officially the only people living on their street. I feel the remainder of the block’s western lands upon which Castle Twin Pines now sits should be given to my Lord Father and the Lady JoAndrea to include the southern hill of Hickory Street unto the Bend of Two Hand Touch at the…

I’m excited and anxious about moving back home to Alabama. Tuesday, I go to look at an apartment in Huntsville I made a deposit. I expect all to be kosher — because I didn’t plan for a plan B place to rent. I can’t afford it without BAH, so I have until January to decide…
