Something About Peace On Earth

I believe in peace (unless it’s professional wrestling). Perhaps those on Team Jesus should set the example of loving thy neighbor as thyself. I hold my prayers and thoughts up for the people of Iran, Iraq, Russia, Afghanistan, Palestine, Somalia, China, and other places and people we are told to hate. I also hold my prayers for places that have faced devastation because of wars they didn’t ask for, like Iran, Palestine, Lebanon, and Ukraine. I really don’t think it’s too much to ask to believe the world can be better and that people should win the day.

To Those Who Signed My 8th Grade Yearbook

Shrimp Taco Tuesday Night

I made shrimp tacos tonight paired with Laura’s Mexican street corn.

The tacos were made with pre-cooked shrimp marinated in Dan-o’s Tac-o seasoning, olive oil, and lime juice. I lightly roasted the shrimp in the oven and put them in warmed street taco shells with cojita cheese and lettuce with a squirt of more lime.

Laura said they were good, and for that I am glad.

Daily Prompt – Mastering A Skill

Daily writing prompt
If you could instantly master any skill, what would it be and why?

I have been a caregiver to my wife, who had emergency surgery in April to clear a severe infection that could have been fatal. Part of that caregiving is wound care. I received a crash course in taking care of her significant surgical wounds before she left her rehabilitation hospital on May 9th. Since then I have practiced the art of applying gauze, pads, creams, saline, and other things to help her heal. So in a sense I have mastered that skill as much as an amateur nurse can.

Happy Friday Gang!

It’s Friday good people. Do your best. Have the best day possible.

Just Saying – Fewer Data Centers

Instead of more data centers, I think there needs to be more investment in public schools and other stuff to make our communities better. We need to have better priorities. Data centers aren’t good for the environment. We need better things in our communities to make them better.
