Mental Health Day or: 2547 + 10

Salutations™!! A friend of mine contacted me today to say that he was longer involved with the company that he loved and put a lot of sweat behind. He left on his own but had gone through some trying time internally with himself. I had thought he was awfully quiet, but also know that with…

The First Real Remodel or: We Did a Thing

Salutations™!! I have lived in my house for just over 19 years. The BCPF has lived in it for almost 11. I have always “liked” my house but other than having a house, I haven’t loved it. Parts are really cool, or were. Parts can be cool and if we can help it, will. When…

Sportsball? or: No Skins in the Game

Salutations™!! Anyone else having a great time watching football this year? I have been so excited and perhaps giddy about football. Even the college stuff. I watched the game tonight between the Giants and the Washington Football Team, and while I have no inclination to like either team, I really enjoyed watching the game. It…

About Last Night or: One for the Ages

Salutations™!! Last night, Chef Eric Brownlee and his staff at The Katharine Brasserie made The BCPF’s and my anniversary dinner (and experience) one of the most memorable.
