Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
I had two reasons for spreading my WordPress-issues update across two blog posts. First, the issues seem to overlap, but they really don’t – not seeing the ‘Like’ button has nothing to do with the editor the post was created in – Guttenberg is off the hook for that. Second, my experience dealing with the... Continue Reading →
I have made the climb to “hump day” but I haven’t yet cleared the hump. It’s been an interesting mix, and you would think I would have collected a few one-liners. Let’s see where we can look. I took Monday afternoon off. I was hoping to wrap-up a minor spring chore that was rained out... Continue Reading →
If this looks familiar, it's because it was accidentally posted yesterday. Either I didn't know the date, or WordPress was messing with me. Whenever I travel, I try to eat at the bar. I don’t know why, but some restaurants don’t let you eat at the bar, or they offer a limited bar menu. I... Continue Reading →
Maddie has us very well trained. Sometimes, she is particular about whether I need to take her out or the Editor has to take her. Sometimes, it doesn’t matter. Monday, it mattered. It had snowed overnight Sunday into Monday. I spend several hours clearing the driveway and sidewalk of 8"(20cm) of heavy wet snow before... Continue Reading →
During a long conversation with my friend Tom, he rattled off today’s one-liner. He was quick to point out that he didn’t make it up, adding that he didn’t know who did.

Winter. “I am Winter!” Yeah, yeah, Febs, we get it. Most every nice-weather day, two coworkers and I walk for... Continue Reading →
Doesn’t that sound nice? I started thinking about this last week while attending our company’s Annual Meeting in Florida. No, not the beach, not a walk along the Gulf shore. Rather, a terrace outside a series of meeting rooms where several companies were having breakfast. I saw the sign below and thought: “we need more... Continue Reading →
Lately, I have been surrounded by messages about beginnings. Many of the blog authors I follow published a “looking back / looking ahead” post. We began a new fiscal year at work. We/they began a new business year at AIIM International, the first in six years in which I am not on the Board. We... Continue Reading →
Being sick during the work-a-day portion of this new year, I hadn’t yet been able visit Great River Park. I wanted to stop on my way to work yesterday, but I wasn’t sure it was a good idea. We had received a small amount of snow overnight. Such an insignificant amount of snow wouldn’t normally... Continue Reading →
