I am a slow walker, but I never walk back. Abraham Lincoln Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to each of you lovely Dwellers. I’ll probably end up making a more new-year focused post next week, but figured it was worth the mention here regardless. And yes, before you ask, I do plan to …
And a step backward, after making a wrong turn, is a step in the right direction. Kurt Vonnegut, Player Piano Intentionally late post this (last?) week as I wanted to do one that captured my full first week of going for this 4×40. And how was that week? Well, not too shabby. I’ll be honest, …
Lack of direction, not lack of time, is the problem. We all have twenty-four hour days. Zig Ziglar Greetings, Dwellers! Happy December, happy Thanksgiving, happy soon-to-be close of the year, merry Christmas in advance, etc., etc. It’s been a busy time both personally and career-wise, with what one should expect from the season and by …

Why do we fall? So we can get back up again. Thomas Wayne, Batman Begins No major post, no major goal listings or commitments or anything of the sort. Not today. Tried those, and it didn’t seem to do much for me at the time. Maybe it will soon, but I know enough to not …

There is no way that this winter is ever going to end as long as this groundhog keeps seeing his shadow. I don’t see any other way out. He’s got to be stopped. And I have to stop him. Phil Connors, Groundhog Day Hello again, Dwellers. It’s been a hot minute, and I want to …
Speed has never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary, that’s what gets you. Jeremy Clarkson Hello, again. Thanks for bearing with a few weeks of respite from my end.
