Happy June! The weather has been exquisitely beautiful and a bit hot during the day (close to 90 degrees) butvery cool and clear nights. With such perfect weather, I have been playing a fair share of pickleball in theevenings (after work). Overall, this week was a typical week of work…

I hope you had a wonderful and safe Memorial Day Weekend. What a great weekend to celebrate those Americans who have sacrificed their lives to have our freedom and democracy! Almost any news report alerts us to the chaos and troubling world that we have. Yet, we are safe and…

This past week was Law Enforcement Appreciation Week. What an oddity to be recognized while in prison. The daily schedule here was completed changed, so I did not have to work for the entire week. Ironic, how I was benefiting from this week too! I am very appreciative for those…

Hoppy Easter! What a week it has been…and another holiday away from the family! Having lost two friends within days was quite distracting. Three guys that I don’t ever associate with or know genuinely stopped me and asked if I was alright! I wasn’t outwardly upset but more dazed. Processing…

This week went by so quickly, which is great. 3 of the 4 days were really nice, so I played some pickleball. I usually play about 2 hours at a time, which ends up being decent cardio. Then on Sunday, Palm Sunday, it snowed in the morning! The weather changes…

I received shocking news yesterday that a dear friend had suddenly passed away. Wayne Owen was found deceased. My heart breaks especially for his parents and his brother as they grieve losing their 47-year-old beloved son. I had only been in D.C. for a few months when I first met…
