Our daughter Angela has been struggling with sensitivity to loud noises, with pain and muffled feelings in her left ear. The doctor listened to her explanation and looked in her ears, expecting to find either an infection or a buildup of wax. There was no infection and no wax build up. She looked closer at […]
We needed to do a little moving of things in our house to facilitate some maintenance work. One piece of furniture was a pine double bunk bed that needed to be moved. For a few months, Jenny has been asking me to repair a pine slate on the bottom bunk that is part of the […]
Yesterday I heard a part of a radio interview about the Church of Satan. The founders of this ‘church’ in South Africa are Riaan Swiegelaar and Adri Norton (female). Adri Norton says they follow the teachings of Anton Szandor LaVey, who was an American author, musician and occultist. He founded the Church of Satan and […]
In passing a Radiator Repair Premises, I was caused to think about the purpose of a radiator in a motor vehicle. It is a very important and integral part of an engine’s cooling system because it has a thermostat that is factory-set to regulate the engine’s temperature.

I decided to take a new walking route today, because on it I will see new areas, businesses and get new ideas for my daily notes. However, I started off going the exact same way. Today, I left later than normal and about 150 meters from our gate, water and small polystyrene balls were flowing […]

Now, I feel as though […]

Even though we are in a new stage of Level 3 lockdown, many people are still working from home and learners and students are studying at home. Some people are returning to work every second week (one week in the office, one week at home), though […]
What do you do when you return home to a crying wife? I needed to do some shopping and Jenny stayed at home. I walked into the kitchen, unpacked my purchases, then walked into the bedroom and Jenny was really crying. I feel I can handle quite a bit, but when my wife is in […]
Last night, we cuddled up under the blankets to hear our president explain the next movement in the COVID-19 lockdown. Less than ten minutes into his speech, we experienced a power failure. There was light and then there was night. I went outside and it was scarily dark. A total blackout! I managed to get […]
