Posted on September 12, 2019 by wisdomfromafather

I’m a couple of days early. Karen and I would have celebrated our 51st wedding anniversary this coming Saturday (Aug. 31). Since that’s our “Prayer, Care, Share” Day, I’ll leave the praise for then, but I can’t let the celebration … Continue reading →

West Side Story

Posted on August 15, 2019 by wisdomfromafather

I don’t like musicals. I like the music in many of them, but I just can’t appreciate singing and dancing through a visual medium. West Side Story included. My wife, however, loved musicals. She went to see West Side Story … Continue reading →

I don’t usually comment on national issues. It’s not that I don’t have opinions, it’s because they are just that … opinions, based on information I’ve gathered. As we used to say, GIGO — garbage in, garbage out– and I’m … Continue reading →

Save! Save! Save!

Posted on July 25, 2019 by wisdomfromafather

Isn’t it ironic that just about every auto insurance pitch will save you money. I mean, the pitches can’t all be true and, let’s face it, a lot depends on where you live, what kind of car(s) you drive and … Continue reading →

… But Green Is My Favorite Color

Posted on July 18, 2019 by wisdomfromafather

I think I’ve been behaving myself, healthwise. My A1C is down almost two points. I’ve shaved about 40 pounds or so. I sleep soundly despite some apnea. I only take four prescription drugs {plus a bunch of supplements}. Not too … Continue reading →
