Random Thoughts

You notice that when you quit social media that you see just how much you checked social media.

The key to being successful is to find a new distraction. Mine has been to go outside now that it is warmer, but I still find myself reaching for my phone.
 
We got about 4 inches of snow overnight. Made me laugh
 
Just realized the word breakfast is to ‘break a fast’, instead of a fast break

I actually love winter/snow but completely over it this year. Needing to get warm & stay there to throw some vegetables in the sun
 
Absolutely shock to myself, but I love coaching kids. 5-7 year olds flock to me. They listen and end up laughing the whole time.

It's weird because I'm intense with them. I'm yelling (not at them), I'm physically moving them to the position I need them in, and I'm on them.

But, they all want high fives, hugs, smiling, and just ear to ear happy. Complete shock to me.
 
When my daughter was 12, she came home from school and told me 'today in English class we had to stand up and tell everyone what our favorite word was'.

'Renaissance' I said. She turned white as a ghost - because that was the word she'd chosen. No idea how I knew.

It's a weekly thing in our house. I'll mention some random movie, actor, song. And then it is the next thing up on TV or the radio. It's gotten to the point where it makes me anxious when it happens.

Last night I dreamt of a fire. I don't ever recall having a fire-related dream before. At work this morning, a fire started outside our building and filled our unit up with smoke.

Rationally, I know these have to just be coincidences. But my rationality tells me coincidences don't happen over and over and over again.
 
That's crazy. You've got some sort of gift.
 
My daughter has been here since mid-day Tuesday. This is the most time we've spent together in well over a year. I miss the grandkids, but all of them will be here in a little under three months. She brought three large packages of wild boar meat from a hunting trip that my s-o-l took last month. I'm thinking - pre-draft tailgate meal. She leaves Sunday afternoon.

And it is currently 5:25am. Momma needs a week of rest. I don't expect her to be awake for at least several more hours.
 
Living in a small town is so much better for me than any city I have lived in before.

We are STILL getting congrats for our son winning state wrestling, and now several local publications have written about it. Absolutely crazy how much this place is good for my soul and my family's wellbeing.

Can you dream of a WFT Super Bowl victory?
 
I will miss both the draft and Caps-Pens tomorrow night.

I’ll record both but have to go completely dark to avoid spoilers.
 
Medina Spirit. Some of you know I don't bet on horses, because I'm superstitious. Some of you also know my track record. The play it safe just in case bet is Known Agenda, because freaky things can and do happen at the Derby. When Animal Kingdom won in 2011, that was my 13th consecutive win. Since then, I have gone 6-3. But 19-3 is still pretty damn good. Aaaaand I wish I could go back in time and bet. But I still won't. I feel like it would start an endless losing streak, so I let others enjoy the spoils.

I hope somebody listened
 
So Beetlejuice just nailed a 12-1 bet to win the derby. Next time you make a prediction, I’m betting it. That’s pretty amazing.
 
It snowed today in Ohio. Not just flurries, but really snowed. This place never ceases to amaze me.

Medina spirit just failed a drug test. We'll see if it holds up or not.
