Balls and dogs

December 5, 2022

I’ve been throwing balls to dogs for 50 years. I get smarter with each toss. Here’s a report on my current four: Nigel J. Wiggins: I throw the ball way out there (at least 20 yards). Nigel runs, brings it back to me and eagerly waits for the next toss. Sammy Watt What: I …

I’m still here

December 1, 2022

I’m at a new blog site. For loyal followers, you can’t get rid of me. I stick like Skippy peanut butter. For those who may be new to my site, I make three promises: That’s all you get.

Best Friends

Best friends

September 29, 2022

Here’s a fun and rewarding exercise I played a few nights ago when I couldn’t go to sleep (probably too many tacos). I brought to mind three close friends and thought about what makes them so darn spectacular. I had fun doing it. There were several qualities all three …

Road Rage or Wave

Road rage or wave?

September 22, 2022

My talents as a nationally renowned researcher came to the surface once again last week. Harvard and Stanford are vying for my reputation and expertise. I’m back on the road once more in Washoe Valley, Nevada, walking briskly (kind of) with my cane and little, red, bouncy …

Matchless

Matchless

September 19, 2022

I‘d get so angry.  My daughter, Kate, was on the Monona Grove High School tennis team, playing doubles with her friend and partner, Ree. During fierce competitions, the two of them would break up laughing and carrying on like little girls. I was there to help them. I’d …

All Attitude

It’s all attitude

September 15, 2022

On Monday morning, I went to the Social Security regional office in Reno. I knew I was in for a “fun time,” so I arrived 20 minutes before the office opened at 9 a.m. Around 50 people were already in line ahead of me outside the big metal entrance. Heavy smoke …

In remembrance

September 13, 2022

Over 30 years ago, Sherry and I bought our home on Franktown Road in Washoe Valley, Nevada. The previous owners had the cutest little girl who cried as her family packed their final truck load and pulled out of the drive.  She yelled out the back window, “Goodbye, …

Down with perfectionism

September 1, 2022

Of all of the destructive traits that get in my way, perfectionism is not one of them. However, I see it pop up with others at work sites and in my relationships with friends and family. My pattern goes in the opposite way. I pass things along in my personal and professional …

Edgar

August 30, 2022

I’m catching some marvelous shows on my sidewalk. The last one featured Edgar, the tiniest ant of them all. Edgar found a twig and his life’s passion was to get this humongous piece of wood from one side of the sidewalk to the other. I was in the stands (my folding chair) …
