Friday, July 7, 2023 I got lots of support today because of yesterday’s post about my life being a lie. I heard several theories (it seems very possible that Raiders came out very early in Waukesha as a test market and I was therefore able to see it at the budget theater before other people […]

Thursday, July 6, 2023 I learned last night that I have been living a lie. I am confounded and jarred and can think of little else. I read a lot of advice columns for recreation and I have read about how people struggle with learning that something they thought was true turned out not to
Wednesday, July 5, 2023 The last of the guests left about 11pm last night. Keith practiced a bit and I played on my phone. About 11:30, we played the game where he reminds me that the POTD exists. After that, we were walking up the stairs, talking about what a great, big day it had
Tuesday, July 4, 2023 We had a party! It was a terrific party. People came. They brought food. All of it was good. We made some food. All of it was good. It was the first time a baby came to our July 4th party and she was smiley and charming and cute as could

Monday, July 3, 2023 We had a busy day. Keith worked part of the day, we went shopping at several stores for party groceries, we tried shoveling things around to make the house presentable, we cooked and prepped food for tomorrow and watched Independence Day (the director’s cut or something like that.

Sunday, July 2, 2023 A couple months ago, I totally inappropriately bought a bag of 12 sandwich rolls at Sam’s club. I just wanted them. Keith does not eat sandwiches. More correctly, he does not like to eat sandwiches. So we do not eat sandwiches, because it really doesn’t make sense to make him a
Saturday, July 1, 2023 Keith didn’t. Until it was too late. I was standing there looking at him and really suddenly he was down in a hole. He caught himself (well, no, he didn’t. He fell into a hole. He reached out to catch himself or balance himself or whatever) with his right hand directly

Friday, June 30, 2023 I read the book Die With Zero by Bill Perkins last year. Basically, it said people save and save and save for retirement, and then continue to save because that is what they are used to. They continue to worry that they will not have enough money to live on before
Thursday, June 29, 2023 Keith always talked about picking black caps when he was a kid. I thought his family had made up a name for blackberries, because black caps were not a thing I had ever heard of. I never said anything about it, because I figured if he thought the name was black
Wednesday, June 28, 2023 In August of 2007, Gramma’s driveway jumped up and knocked out two of Benjamin’s teeth. Well, actually, it might have been me, because as he walked up the sidewalk, with blood dripping around his mouth, I said, “Did you knock out any teeth?” He paused, thought, then spit out first one,
