17 August 2020 - Plague Journal Day 157

Micah 6:8
Luke 18:15-17
Yes, your life matters.

We all are still sheltering in place, but I'm here to keep you sane and entertained.
One could hardly ask for much more than that, now could one?

I was shocked this morning to learn that yesterday was National Bratwurst Day. 
How could I have missed that? Here's a link to one of my all-time top posts that will tell you how to cook bratwurst.

Moving on to today, we have landed on Stay Home With Your Kids Day. Now, that's just cruel, don't you think?
Or maybe it's actually genius - let's celebrate necessity! After all, necessity is the mother of invention. 

Frank Zappa was an amazing musician, and he was the leader of the Mothers of Invention, so maybe we should all celebrate by asking any vegetable, or hanging out in Joe's garage, or wearing a real poncho (no, not a Sears poncho), or a wide range of other things. Your kids will thank you.

Keep Calm and Stay Away.
I'll be back tomorrow.

10 May 2020 - Plague Journal Day 59

We all are still sheltering in place, but I'm here to keep you sane and entertained.
One could hardly ask for much more than that, now could one?

It's Mother's Day, and those of us who can't visit our mothers are feeling bad about it. Still, just imagine how hard this is for those mothers who can't hug their children, who can't go visit them, who can't get a visit. This simply means we need to be even more intentional about expressing our love for the mothers in our lives.
Don't let today pass by without telling them you love them, but don't let any day pass by without letting those you love know that you do. Go ahead, put it into words, but put it into actions too.


Keep Calm and Stay Away.
I'll be back tomorrow.
