Breakfast today is Ham, Mashed Potato, Green Beans, with side of Salad Creme, and a mug of #Coffee.
Despite being in a Starbucks mug, the Coffee is from Every Tribe Coffee named Thai Lanna.

The meal is leftover from the CenterPointe Christian Church Growth Group supper from last evening.

This morning Arianna is having a procedure which requires her to have a driver, AKA me! So, I have taken today and tomorrow off work with #PTO.
She is currently on an overnight fast, and I shall take her somewhere for breakfast straight afterwards.

Tonight at 20:00 I shall be virtually attending a Men's Growth group.
So looking forward to that excellent & trusted time of fellowship.

Talking of Church, please join us on Sunday, in-person or virtually *, for our #Easter services.
The times are 08:00, 09:30, & 11:00 *.
If you attend in-person you will be able to discuss with me at the front door as I greet at all 3 services.

I hope you have a most excellent day.
Keep on looking after your neighbours, which includes classmates and fellow employees.

Yesterday, Tuesday 15th April 2025, was fun at God's Pantry Food Bank.
We held our official Open Day, including Ribbon Cutting.

The line-up included 3 staff members of over 20 years employment:
Danielle - 30 years
Myself - 25 years
Jack - 23 years
The Board President stood next to me.
In the middle was our CEO Mike Halligan.
Next to him was ex-Board-Member and Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear.

Attached are photos of the Ribbon Cutting line-up and of myself, the official Doorman. (Church friends will love this!)

Today I shall be fully working from home.
Tonight I shall be attending our Church Growth Group in the home of one of our families. https://mycpointe.com/growthgroups/ #Church #GrowthGroup

Keep on taking care of yourself.
Also, literally take care of your neighbour. Ours was rushed to hospital last evening in an ambulance.
Love you all.

Arianna & I booked GreenBox Home Services to work on a bunch of our house plumbing.
https://www.greenboxhomeservices.com/
When I arrived home there were 2 work vans outside.
The 2 guys have been working on:
a) Both WCs have been leaking at the base.
b) Kitchen sink has been smelling, no matter what we do to scent or clean.
c) They also checked the Dishwasher pipes.
d) Flush the hot water heater in the garage.
We have been in the house 22 years, and this is our most intensive plumbing service.

Some may have noticed that I am quite sporadic these days with a morning timed message. They will continue on days I have something to report or say.

Health-wise, I stay the same with on-off focus periods with my brain where I am sharp or need a nap to reset. Naps / Sleep remains only a few hours at a time. #Concussion #PCS

Today starts a new work week with the #FoodBank, which shall be interesting:
Monday: Split shifts of Office and Home.
Tuesday: Work from Home. #WFH
Wednesday: Split shifts of Office and Home.
Thursday: Arianna has a medical procedure for which she is being sedated. I am taking PTO to be her driver and carer.
Friday: PTO
BTW - Saturday: Podcrawl - details here: https://tuxjam.otherside.network/podcrawl/

Over the weekend I completed a designated batch of typing up #Bible extracts from an international local people group. Sent in my completed work to my #MissionAssist supervisor, and received a new batch this morning.

I shall have my first #Coffee of the day at work.
Take care of yourself, and your neighbours.
