He/Him/Sir She/Her/Madam They/Them Here in the United States of America the concept of using someone’s “preferred” pronoun is something that can be a nonissue for some and a big issue for others. I don’t know what it is like in other countries, but I know that here, depending on where you live/work/school/be active, this has…

Where I plan to ramble on things
4 More Years
In all honesty I wasn’t sure what to expect. I truly thought that VP Harris was going to pull off the win just a few days ago. Ever since the one debate where Trump sucked it up I thought Harris had pulled ahead and would keep that momentum going to Election Day. I didn’t think…
3 Months In Idaho
I have lived in Idaho now for 3 months. I realized last week that I have now been away from AZ longer than I have ever been before in my life. We have been residents of Idaho since the second week of July and so right now we are at 12 weeks. We did go…
Changes and The Required Stuff
It has been a bust last couple weeks for me as being an Idaho resident. I had to get a new driver’s license. I had to take a written test! And when I got there I found out I also had to take the motorcycle test written test as well. That was unexpected. I had…
What’s Up With My Posting
This is a new one for me. I want to get rid of the many boxes we have from moving to Idaho. They are good quality moving boxes. I thought that trying to sell them was the way to go. I put an ad on Offer Up and Craigslist with no issues at all. I…

Kids and Devices
This is a ramble that came on because of recent travels. I want to start this posting with an admission that I grew up in front on the TV. Most of my friends did as well. But we still got outside and played, even when it was over 110-degrees in the summer. But it is…
My Mission (If I Choose to Accept It)
I have written before that I am not good at making friends, but have had some good ones – Friends. Now I am starting a life in a new city, in a new state, and everyone I will meet will be new to me. My wife has given me the mission of making new friends….
Water Park Day – Man I’m Old
So yesterday we the afternoon at our local water park -Roaring Springs. It is a very nice water park. It has a lot of slides of varying size and craziness. And the best part is that is is just down the street from our house. We wanted to hit the park this weekend because it…
So Much Adulting – Again
We are in AZ for a week. We drove here. The plan was for the kids and I to head down for a week so they could spend time with family and friends before school starts in Idaho. I had it all figured out with the drive, and things were set, and then “B” decided…
