Sci-Fi, Space Marine & Superhero Sunday!
Since I totally screwed up and missed Superhero Saturday this week, I’m going all in on a balls to the wall, over the top Sci-Fi, Space Marine & Superhero extravagnaza! Hyperbole much? Probably. 😄 Anyhow, on that note, I hope y’all enjoy and have a fantastic Sunday. Stay awesome!!! We’ll kick off this week with…

Bury Yourself
Good day to everyone! A funny thing happened to me along the path of this little blogging adventure. When I started it, my intention was to post about some of the challenges I’d come up against and the lessons I had learned along the way. My hope was to help others and bring some positive…

One Handsome Devil! (Prompt: 01/21/24)
So, I looked up the meaning of my name and according to several sources, it means “handsome”, “gentle”, “kind” and “beloved”. Clearly, my mother drank heavily during pregnancy. 🤣 It’s Irish in origin and derives from the name Caoimhín. From what I also read, in Hindi it is said to mean “comely” and “beloved” In…

30-Day Pushup Challenge (Days 16-20)
I’ve now passed the halfway mark in my 30-Day Pushup Challenge and we’re now on the downhill side of things. Side note: Scary that the first month of the New Year is already half over. Crazy! And I’ve only written the wrong year once, shockingly. Anyhow, on with this week’s report: 01/16/24: 200 pushups completed.…

A Visit To The Apothecary
Good morning, friends and fellow adventurers! For today’s excursion, we will be taking a trip to our local apothecaries. We shall purchase potions and elixirs to cure any ills we may encounter on our upcoming journey through Midguard and the fantastical realms which surely lay before us. Stock up, for we shall not be back…

Spies, Lies, and Digital Skies Challenge (01/26/24)
It’s time for this week’s entry in Susan T. Braithwaite’s Spies, Lies, and Digital Skies Challenge. This week’s prompt is: An elusive double agent. This one definitely lived up to it’s name and proved to be a challenge. For me, at least. 😄 I tried multiple variations on this theme but could not pin anything…

Workin’ For A Livin’ (Prompt: 01/20/24)
Ironic that this prompt comes up while I am deciding my next move in life. More than likely, I will look for another supervisor gig, since I have the experience and actually do like it. I enjoy working with a team, helping them and watching them grow. I’ve also been toying with the idea of…

Your Time Is Gonna Come
You know, every now and then the universe gives you those little reminders that it’s on your side. Talk about synchronicity. Just this morning, Adarsh G wrote a post about Karma. Well, round about the same time he posted that, I got word that someone who had been sticking multiple knives in my back at…

Black (& White!) Friday
Good morning everyone. TGIF! Hope it’s a good one for y’all. I decided to take a different turn with today’s images. I went with a mainly black and white theme. There might be small splashes of color or slightly different shades, but you get the idea. Hope you enjoy! Yes, I know…The last couple aren’t…

Follow The Leader (Prompt: 01/19/24)
As someone who has been a leader for the past 4-plus years, you’d think I would have a lot to say on this topic, but at the moment I really don’t. I think right now there’s just a part of me that’s cut that portion of my life loose and is happy not to think…

No Theme Thursday
Good morning everyone! Since I couldn’t decide on anything particular to display this morning, I thought I would take this opportunity to welcome you all to No Theme Thursday! I’m just going to put up a handful of pics from a variety of genres for your perusal. I hope you all enjoy and have an…

Hold The Avocado! (Prompt: 01/18/24)
It’s been a day, so don’t mind me. If I had to pick one thing right now off the top of my dome to un-invent it would be this godforsaken need to put avocado on every freaking dish under the sun. Where did this silliness start? I bet it was California. 🙄 Now, don’t get…

Life Is Just A Fantasy
Good morning all! For today’s selections, I dove back into the fantasy realm. Barbarians, rogues and mages abound! Hope you enjoy and have a great day!!! I question the use of glassware in Fantasyland, but I digress…

Let Me Count The Ways
I don’t think there’s any one example I could, or would, want to give for this prompt. I mean, really, love comes in so many forms that it’s hard for me to place value on any one example of love over the other. I’ve been lucky enough to be the recipient of love from my…

The Weird, Wild West
For today’s image drop, I thought I would share some pics I conjured up combining Old West and futuristic themes. Westworld probably did it better, but I had a good time nonetheless. Hope y’all enjoy. Saddle up! BTS Outtake: If only she wasn’t showing half her cards…🤦♂️

Happy 100!
Yesterday morning, I was very surprised to see that I had surpassed 100 follows here on WP! When I started this blog, I wasn’t really sure what I wanted it to be (one could probably argue that I still don’t 😄), other than I wanted to try and have a positive impact on people’s lives.…

Junk It All (Prompt: 01/16/24)
There are a ton of ways this can be interpreted. Physically, mentally, emotionally, etc. Funny thing is about two months ago, I went on a tear and threw a bunch of stuff out that had been hanging around forever. Finally got sick of it and tossed it. Ironically, about a week before I got fired…

30-Day Pushup Challenge (Days 11-15)
This week will mark the halfway point of my 30 Day Pushup Challenge. How did I do? Well, let’s find out, shall we? 01/11/24: 200 pushups completed. Did these spaced out during morning coffee/WP time in sets of 50. So far, that rep scheme seems to be working well, so I will stick with it…

Next Stop…The Wasteland!
Good morning all! Hope everyone had a great weekend. Today’s theme seems fitting for the start of the week. I think the word “Wasteland” is easily interchangeable with “Monday”. 😄 These images were inspired by a little video game series called Fallout. It’s one of my favorite video game series ever. There is also going…

Lions, Tigers and…Cats, Oh My?
Truth to tell, I like most animals. I come from a long line of dog owners, but my current situation doesn’t allow for one. Members of my family have owned everything from toy poodles, dobermans, beagles all the way up to great danes. I also used to have a rabbit who seemed to think he…

1,000 Reps Of Doom!
The past couple days of my 30-Day Pushup Challenge were mediocre, to say the least. I got my reps in, but I was feeling off, and it was honestly, a case of going through the motions just to say I got it done. Which, on one hand, is nice that I pushed through it, which…

Get Up! (Poem)
Get up! Pull yourself up off your knees Get up! Can’t you see that you are free? Get Up! Stand up straight and seize your crown Get up! Don’t let the bastards wear you down Get up! Don’t you wallow there in vain Get up! Learn to weaponize your pain Get up! Though you struggle…

I’ll Send An SOS To The World (Prompt: 01/13/24)
Now that my needless compulsion to sneak a song reference into most everything has been satisfied, I can move onto the question at hand. How do I communicate online? This one is actually going to be quick and easy. Outside of texting, this blog is pretty much it. When I was working, I was on…

Superhero Saturday!
Ah, the good old days of Saturday morning cartoons! When I was a wee lad I could not lift my head off the pillow Monday though Friday mornings if my life depended on it. But on Christmas morning and Saturdays? You betcha I could! I loved me some Saturday morning cartoons, and I especially loved…

G N’ R, Blizzards & Fist Fights (Prompt: 01/12/24)
So, it wasn’t really a road trip per se, but it was memorable. Me and three of my friends got tickets to see Guns N’ Roses at a venue about an hour away during their Use You Illusion Tour. It was during the winter, and there was snow in the forecast, but it wasn’t supposed…
