It’s Monday Again Friends

Good day, it’s another Monday. How are you doing?

I didn’t sleep well this weekend and I hope I will be able to keep going today.

This morning one of my favorite songs was on the radio and I cranked it up. I did sing along with it too.

Let’s hope for a good week ahead. Have a good day everyone. Grace and peace to you all.

Getting Blogging Stale

I feel as if my blogging is getting stale. Lately I haven’t been posting as much for reasons I am trying to figure out. Sometimes it feels like my depression is getting in the way. My motto is “keep on blogging” but sometimes I think I am in need of a re-fresh. I don’t find myself being very creative at the moment. Do you go through this sort of thing? Your comments are welcome.

My New Diabetes Meter

I got a new diabetes meter today that is more old school than my previous meter. This is a cool device that connects with my smartphone so I can log my readings and keep an eye on my Type 2 diabetes. This kit included everything I needed to get going and that is why I chose it. Let’s see how it goes.

Wink At Friday #TGIF

Happy Friday good people. Make it a great day everyone. Finish your week strong. Love and peace my dudes.

I Support Palestine

I am in support of the people of Palestine. While most of the people I know are supporting Israel I am seeing things from a different perspective. There is a difference between Biblical Israel and the current State has only been in existence since 1948. The arrogance of modern Israel’s government is stunning. What is happening there is akin to Apartheid. Of course, this is a highly ancient and complex issue with no easy solutions it seems. This does not mean I am anti-Jew because some good friends are Jewish, I will probably take heat for this but the people of Palestine deserve better and they are God’s children too. Palestinians love their children too.

Throwback Thursday #TBT

Me masked up at Walmart at the beginning of the pandemic one year ago. We’ve been through a lot in the past year. Still not out of the woods yet.
