I have a scab on my head that might be from taking my sleep apnea mask off too fast. It doesn’t help that we’re supposed to sleep for eight hours.

I got back home from the lake house last night, and my family’s dogs Max and Skippy are with me here.

We have a lake house in Georgia. I”m there now. I’ll be home tonight.

I played my drum today. It’s a jembe, an African drum. I think it’s African, anyway.

I just watched Br. David’s TED Talk about happiness and gratefulness. I’m grateful for a lot of things. I’m grateful for my disability. I’d be dead without it. I believe I’d be the happiest I’ve ever been in Heaven, but it wasn’t my time. It probably won’t be for a while.

I experimented with an Ipad today. It worked for me.

I don’t think there’s anything basic about me or anybody else. We’re all unique, and nobody can be stereotyped. We can all be grateful for that.

When I first heard about face masks last year, I felt like I had somehow woken up in a Halloween universe. The economy crashing and the crazy protests didn’t help matters, but at least there are no monsters out to get us unless that’s what you call diseases and all the other world’s problems.

Maybe negative experiences are really blessings in disguise.

Brother David Steindl-Rast. “Gratefulness rocks!”

Grace is knowing God made you so you can praise Him.

Well, just in case my machine’s noisy again I think I could do with less.

I don’t know. My disability doesn’t allow me to sense when I’m tired.

I’d rather live in a grateful palace than a stony one. Everybody could say this website’s a grateful palace in cyberspace.

Yes. I was just about to answer you when the power went out. The best thing I can say about those times is that they give us more time to think about our grateful lives.

That;s one of my favorites.

Yes. That was true even before the pandemic.

I hope to get back to it soon, but now you can see some art on Instagram. I’m not sure where all of it came from. Besides, writing is a form of srt.

Yes, they can.
