Happy Birthday Todd

Dec 9, 1965 - brother Todd was born.

Here's a crazy thought. Todd would have been 60 this year.

Master bidder of the 'Price is Right' game show. 

Aug 13, 2007 - delivered to the angels.  18 years ago.
Let's take a moment and wish this guy a happy birthday.

Life Guide

 I'm using this blog as my daily journal. It occurred to me that sharing these stories might be useful to the rest of you as to what you can expect in life as you get older at my age. I will be your life guide. No charge of course. The topic today is SLEEP. They say you need less as you get older. I will take as many hours of rest as I can get.  The challenge for me is my sleep patterns. I stay fairly active every day. Yesterday was a big day in the yard. Several hours scooping up leaves. By 7:30 pm, my eyes were drooping. Time to hit the sheets. Lying in silence is no bueno for me. I like background noise. Sometimes I listen to old radio shows from the 40s and 50s. I'm also a big fan of old sci-fi movies. Space rockets and giant monsters. Most nights, the distraction will quiet my mind and the sandman will haul me away. Other nights are most frustrating. My body is beat tired but my brain will flip to party mode. I toss and turn well after midnight. That is my menta...

Note to Self

Image
  Notes, Lists, Post-its. I use every available resource to remember critical tasks. The problem is I forget where I wrote my reminder or worse, sometimes I can't find my notebook. I'm an old school pencil pusher. Why not use my phone you ask? That's nuts. I don't carry my phone with me. I occasionally lose that as well. Most of the bills are on auto-pay. No worries there. Running low on toothpaste, make a shopping list.  It's the odd jobs. Driving at sunset and discovering I need to clean the windshield. Porch light is out, I need to change the bulb. I will write a note and eventually get to it. When I find the time to work, I can't find my notes. I write a new note to find my old notes.  I have a notebook for cooking and recipes. Small details matter. I made enchiladas this past week. The last few times I made them I got lazy and skipped a step. You must soften the tortilla in hot oil before soaking them in the sauce. Extra work but it makes a huge d...

Head West Day 1

Image
 First leg of my road trip is in the books. From Hot Springs Ark, to Marshall Tx. Just west of Shreveport La. A short 4 hour drive, but it rained on me the entire trip. Maybe an omen for things to come. I pray not. I had a late start today as I had a haircut appt. this morning. That was a must do. My hair was starting to touch my ears and it was bugging me bonkers. I may freeze on the road, but at least I will be looking good. I decided to dive straight south to the Gulf coast as quickly as possible instead of our usual route to Dallas. I'm not taking any chances with a sneaky early freeze. I should be far enough Southwest by Friday that I hope to miss the snow and ice. You just never know with the weather.  It's been some time since I've taken a long road trip. The past few years I've hopped over to the golf course here in the village. I occasionally drive 30 minutes to Home Depot in town. 45 minutes into the trip this morning and my body went into sh...
