• I just glanced at my phone and looked at the weather for Vancouver. The app said it was going to rain very hard for the next six hours.

    So I did the next logical thing I went up on the deck and removed all the cushions from the deck furniture.

    I ate my lunch and went back to my desk and looked at the weather report again and I was looking in the wrong Vancouver. We are only supposed to get some light rain for an hour.

    And there was no harm done in cleaning up the cushions on the desk.

    The same holds true for global warming. If we tackle the problem and it’s a hoax like a niche of the population indicates.

    What harm have we done.

    None

    Do lazy days make you feel rested or unproductive?

    When I actually have a lazy day.

    If I have an unproductive day at work the only person who knows is me. But it makes me feel lazy and somewhat frustrated.

    Even this forum does not let you be lazy. We are reminded we are on an 66 day streak.

    I don’t know how to spend a lazy day. But if I define it how I want it does not feel so bad. A lazy day is filled with drawing, writing, reading and interacting with my partner. That allows me to feel refreshed.

    However, if I define a lazy day as whether I did a decent workout then It generally is indicative of how I feel. Sometimes it physically affects me but more mentally.

    I’ll get around to answering the question soon.

    It depends

    When you think of the word “successful,” who’s the first person that comes to mind and why?

    I think of a gal named Vicky who led this cheer as a tenth grade cheerleader. 

    Success can mean different things to different people. For some, it might mean financial stability or professional achievement, while for others it might mean having a fulfilling personal life. 

    And here is a vague example. I joined a racquet ball league and played my first game last night. I played a 30 year old kid who was rather skilled. I got crushed. 

    I still deem it a success, as I have not played in 20 years. It was a nice clean sweat with maximum effort. 

    Still, when I hear the word success, I think of Vicky the cheerleader.

  • Teaching My Dog German

    What was the hardest personal goal you’ve set for yourself?

    The only time I speak German is with the dogs. They aren’t all that critical. Now Cooper is trying to learn the language.
