Lots of people are going through losses of family, pets, and other stuff. All I can say is that God will be with you, us, and everyone through all of it. If you aren’t Godly inclined then may you have comfort and solace in the arms of family and/or friends. Don’t worry about being tough, feel the feelings and allow yourself to be human. Peace be with you all.

Something To Try For The First Time – Skydiving
I am usually a play-it-safe guy, but I would consider skydiving. It seems like a thrill ride from a few thousand feet in the air. Of course, I would want to skydive tethered to an experienced person who could do a huge part of the work and would guarantee I would make it back on the ground safely. All of it seems like a lot of fun or something like that.
A Note About Hurricane Milton
To all in the path of Hurricane Milton, I hope you are doing what you must to be safe and secure away from the storm. This thing is going to be dangerous. Please take care and think of your neighbors who might need a hand. May God be with you and yours in the days ahead. Also, be mindful of those recovering from Helene who are still digging out.

It’s Left-Handers Day Around The World – Blaugust – #LeftHandersDay
International Left-Handers Day is an international day observed annually on August 13 to celebrate the uniqueness and differences of left-handed individuals. Being left-handed can be difficult in a world designed primarily by right-handed humans. Studies suggest that approximately 10% of people are left-handed.
I am proud to say that I am very left-handed. Special people are born blessed with this gift. Many remarkable people are left-handed such as my Missus, Prince William, Oprah Winfrey, Lady Gaga, Barack Obama, Eminem, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Buzz Aldrin, Lebron James, Jon Stewart, Babe Ruth, and Morgan Freeman are all terrific southpaws.
To all my left-handed friends, we are truly in our right minds. Have a great left-handers day to all the good people who observe.
The Wheels On The Bus Go Round, School Begins #Blaugust
The school busses were out and running this morning, a sign of students returning to the classroom. On Facebook, I have seen many of my friend’s children in their first-day-of-class pictures. Back in my day the kids used to go back after Labor Day (in America). Now they go back in early August. I am hoping those kids will have a great year in the classroom and beyond. May they also be safe and secure. Let’s hope the lessons they learn this year will make the world a better place for themselves and for everyone. Do a good job kids.
