Hi there, my name is Tony Burgess (my friends call me T-Bird) from Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. I am a believer, bleeding heart, idealist, and blogger. I'm married to Laura the Soup Diva and a dog dad to Frankie, Cody, and Mikey. Daily I work for a blood bank recruiting donors. My blog is where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life. I am a member of The Episcopal Church. Thank you for connecting with me. Grace, peace, and love!

Veterans Day In America

Today is Veterans Day in America where we honor those who have served in our military. Wearing the uniform of ones country to serve is a great honor and a duty many take seriously. Men and women who bravely stand watch to protect their fellow citizens from harm deserve recognition from a grateful nation. Our veterans have life experience we can all draw from.

Thank you to everyone past, present and future who gave a part of their lives in service. Remember those who gave everything.

Hey Hey It’s Friday

Sleep

I have taken melatonin and magnesium in hopes to sleep better tonight. My primary care provider doesn’t like to prescribe sleeping pills and I get that. Let’s hope that rest is going to happen. I need it to.
