    • New Habits?

      I’ve been watching these dogs— Ellie and Mabel— since Monday afternoon and I changed my bedtime habits for them since they’re what I affectionately call “old people dogs.” Although one of the dogs is about 12, the other one is less than a year old. However, their people are at the age where going to…

    • A New Beginning

      Today is my “check-in” day, where I tell you all about how I’m doing. After Wednesday night’s post, here’s what I learned about myself: I grieve differently over the loss of social media than I do over the loss of my father. I’ve heard it said that every loss is different, but even before I…

    • There Will Be Ramblings

      I had no intention of writing tonight. I also had no intention of going to my church’s young adult gathering either. This is what happens when you allow yourself to be led by the Spirit. For the learned folks, you’ll recall that when Jesus was “led by the Spirit” into the wilderness for 40 days,…

    • One Week Later…

      Today is the official end of the week and this is the official end of the week “review”, for the simplest of terms. This week was rough. There were highlights, there were lowlights. Every week has them, but this week was— at first glance— more low than high. However… I was thinking about my week…

    • Withdrawal Symptoms Are Real

      I’m writing this as I’m at church on lyrics and I just have to say, I am SO. TIRED. Physically tired. I haven’t been this tired at a church function since I first came to this church in 2014. The only thing missing in my life is something by way of social media, so I’m…

    • Emptier… but Fuller

      I deleted social media two whole days before I said I was going to. “Why wait anymore?” I asked myself. “It’s not as if there’s something to wait for.” Since then I’ve worked two much fuller days than I’d like, hung out with family (pictured above with one of my nephews and two of my…

    • Working To Quit

      As I’m writing this, it’s about 11:15pm and I’ve spent all but about 4 of the 14 hours I’ve been awake today clearing out space in my phone so I can download all of the files I got from Facebook that are basically my life for the last 13 years. Yep, you read that right.…

    • The First Of Many To Come

      This is the first post of many to come in the future. I’m not perfect, nor do I pretend to be, but I definitely plan on writing for this blog at least once a week. I actually know a friend who quit social media, wrote for maybe two weeks on his blog and then left…
