Healthy habits - They help you discover the rhyme and reason for life

Woke up after only one hour of sleep last night. And I quietly dragged myself out to the living room where I was greeted, with glee, by Sleepy Man. One of the most dastardly, sinister, and passive aggressive villains you’ll ever encounter. Because I’m not even sure he understands he’s a villain. And Sleepy Man doesn’t have super powers. He has something much worse. … Read the rest...

So, Tony…was the balloon sinuplasty fun? Oh yeah. If you’re looking for something to do on your next vacation, let me suggest taking a nice balloon sinuplasty ride. Because it’ll be a vacation you’ll never forget.   Balloon sinuplasty has a fun ring to it, right? Yeah, about as fun as kissing your mother-in-law on the lips. But seriously, considering the surgery involves a … Read the rest...

Monday is here. Did you notice? It seems like, in this day and age, there wouldn’t be as much dread about it. But when I was searching for something this morning, I noticed the phrase, Monday is here, was a popular search term on Google. So, I clicked it to see why.   It seems like people still don’t like when Monday is here. … Read the rest...

Life got you down? Count your blessings. I’d like to encourage you, today, to count your blessings. But I don’t want you to spend the whole day on it. And you certainly could. Because you have way more than you might first think. Yeah…even you.   When you count your blessings, something cool happens. You start to see how your whole life is a … Read the rest...

Here’s why running is bad for you. And good. Just read a couple of articles from a couple of different sources on why running is bad for you. Mostly it’s because of things like an improved cardiovascular system, stronger heart, greater blood volume, and improved resistance to infection. Oh wait…I think I got that wrong.   OK, now I’ve got it. Here’s why running is … Read the rest...

Is the rising sun essential? As I was doing a little research for my daily writing idea, I looked up how essential sunlight is for good health. Keep in mind, I don’t always use keywords the typical way. Because I’m also looking for poetic, creative solutions and ideas. So, I typed in my keyword choice and came up with a “rising sun essential”suggestion, from … Read the rest...

I love the music and memory connection My friend, Brian, and I were talking about starting to sing in front of a group of people and realizing you don’t remember the first words. He told me this happened to him recently. But he was impressed by how the music started, and when it came time to sing the first word, he just remembered. And … Read the rest...

Lazy Gluttons Uh-oh. Mom! Tony just started calling names! He called some people lazy gluttons. Don’t know what a glutton is, but pretty sure it’s not good. Because it comes after lazy. [powerpress_player] Why in the world am I talking about lazy gluttons? Because America (and I’m sure the whole world, too) is full of ’em. But why did this even come up? And … Read the rest...

What will you be giving for your high standard of living? Our generally high standard of living in America is great. As far as I’m concerned, it’s still the best place on earth to live. We still enjoy more freedom than any other place”in spite of government; not because of. But that’s another subject. And we still have so much to make our lives easier”which could … Read the rest...

Can you “make” new year resolutions? In January of this year (2018) I decided to keep my streak going of not making new year resolutions. I figure if “everybody’s doing it”, then it’s a good idea not to do it. But I did set 3 goals for myself, and this is to let you know…I failed those goals. Miserably. When I say “miserably”, I … Read the rest...
