I made a concerted effort to change a few years ago.  I now go right to the front of the class so to speak and engage.  It has made a huge difference...

I suspect there are more than few folks who wish to gladly kick 2020 to the curb, and welcome 2021 with open arms.  I certainly know I'm one of those who is.  While, there have been the 2020 blessing of spending time in isolation to contemplating thing in life of greater importance, there's also ...

I'm having a really normal day here in Sacramento.  My grandkid, Baron, arrived a couple days ago.  After leaving Reno the first of the month, he spent time with his dad doing a little ranch hand work while isolated in Arbuckle, California. That made it more safe for him to then come here, to spe...
