My Kingdom for a Heart

So, after writing about having lots of A-fib this time around and plenty of wandering rhythms. I spent the better part of today, in the E.R…… AGAIN. Traditionally, I am only cleared to sit with the arrhythmias for up to 48 hours – max… then the possibility of stroke and embolisms start going up dramatically. … Continue reading »

Creatively Mending a Broken Heart

Imagination + boredom + creativity = Awesome… I came across this video and it really struck a chord, these guys are just amazing.

Fatality has never been so Delicious…

Well, admittedly the last few days have been relatively heavy lifting on ye old blog…. I suppose it’s a hazard and we’re all a victim of the  circumstance. Rest assured, I meant you no harm.

A State of the Union & Death…

People don’t know how to think… and they don’t really want to know how. Maybe that’s just the way it seems… I’m going on 8 months of pretty much sitting at home day after day, not doing much of anything… it’s given me three things, a sore ass, a big divot on the couch and … Continue reading »

My NASCAR Surgical Team

Well…. apparently….. I’m tougher than an old boot… both me and Harry Potter are “the boy who lived” All my “bad feelings” and the nervousness I was having as a result of having gone through the heart operation twice already and somehow, in my head, that meant I was due for something to go wrong … Continue reading »

Donkeys and You… Which one is Smarter?

Rounding out our animals that teach series we’re going out on a strong note, universally hailed as King of the animal Kingdom, the Donkey is without question the perfect blend of grace and wisdom, majestically holding court over all they survey. Stories featuring Donkeys are lynchpins in most of our families, and here’s another one; … Continue reading »

Getting Goosed with Knowledge…

I think – without question, for far too long we’ve all ignored the impact geese have made on our lives. You’d be pretty hard pressed to find anyone  who doesn’t carry a picture in their wallet of at least one goose who made an important life decision for us. Well, now – here’s another… A … Continue reading »
