Sick.
I went to bed on the night of Friday May 15 feeling fine. At about 1:30 in the morning, I was awakened with painful abdominal cramps and a sinking feeling came over me. My digestive health has not always been optimal. Mental health can play a big role in this with stress and anxiety being …
Surfing the apocalypse
Several years ago someone asked my how I was doing and without a beat I replied, “oh you, just surfing the apocalypse,” without really thinking about it. Since then, this phrase that came to me seemingly from thin air, has become part of my lexicon for when people ask me how things are going in …

Our collective nightmare
Last week, the incompetent and woefully unqualified Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth went on a firing spree as he fired top generals in the Army.
