So as much as I wanted to just hermit myself in the hotel room Sunday I just couldn’t see spending the entire day holed up like a prisoner. To begin with, I woke up earlier than I intended because of … Continue reading
I went out for a bit today to run a couple of errands. Decided while I was already pretending to be alive like the other people I saw that I would go catch a movie I have been wanting to … Continue reading
…because it’s been a very busy week and I am tired. At least I seem to be over whatever was causing the glands in my throat to swell up (a large majority of our office staff has been sick and … Continue reading
Last Sunday I slept in until almost noon. Between just being tired from the long hours at work and fighting off whatever this is that was causing my glands in my throat to swell up, I really needed the rest … Continue reading
I imagine that a lot of people under the age of 20 are probably unaware that KFC is an acronym for Kentucky Fried Chicken. But those of us who are of a certain age will clearly remember the late Colonel … Continue reading
Saturday afternoon I looked out my office window and saw the rain had started. Rain is fine, even when it is as cold as it has been here, but I knew from the weather report that this rain was going … Continue reading

After I finished up my meeting in Elizabethtown last Wednesday, I had to drive another 2 hours down to Hopkinsville to spend the night and prepare for a meeting the next afternoon. I ended up booking a room at the … Continue reading
I was driving from Frankfort to Elizabethtown last Wednesday for a meeting. It was cold and it was raining. So, of course, the radio station I was listening to played this song: Seven lonely daysAnd a dozen towns agoI reached … Continue reading
So, last Friday I blogged about checking into the Doubletree in Lexington, Kentucky and how happy I was in comparison to the “Hotel-Chain-Which-Must-Not-Be-Named” that I had checked out of a few days earlier. Here’s another example of how cool it … Continue reading
Within the 50 states that make up our United States, four are designated as “commonwealth” rather than “state.” Those four are Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Kentucky. Much like the adjustment I had to make in Louisiana last year when it … Continue reading
I’ll be on the road today, first for an afternoon meeting in a town about 2 hours from the office, then driving another 2 hours to a town in Kentucky named Hopkinsville to spend the night before a meeting there … Continue reading
I was driving back to the office from lunch yesterday when I pulled up behind a car at a stop light. The familiar puzzle pieces design immediately caught my eye as I realized I was looking at the first Autism … Continue reading
Another Valentine’s Day spent away from my Valentine. Last year I was in Baton Rouge, LA on Valentine’s Day and though I did not forget the day as it relates to Cindy, it did slip my mind when I went … Continue reading
After leaving the front desk on Tuesday night, I went back to my room, got online and booked a room at the Doubletree in Lexington, a hotel that, while a little farther away, was getting good ratings from some co-workers. … Continue reading
Yes, another city and thus another hotel. But this move was a voluntary one on my part. Sort of. I’ve never been a fan of Choice Hotels (Comfort Suites, Quality Inn, etc.) but when I was in Iowa back in … Continue reading
A new town and a new hotel. I won’t miss the horrible Internet connection from the old one and this one seems to be very good so far. Looks like I’ll be at this hotel for a while, though it … Continue reading
I was so tired and distracted last night when I posted my previous entry that I completely forgot to write about the reason for the title “Always Flexible” so I’ll remedy that now. One of my co-workers sent an e-mail … Continue reading
We got word today that our temporary operational HQ here in Frankfort will be moving to a new location about 2 miles away on Saturday. We’ve been temporarily set up in a facility on a military installation and while they … Continue reading
Well, it was actually 4 degrees, not 5, this morning. Though one local TV weatherperson showed a map with Frankfort having a temperature (not a wind chill) of -1. Realistically, I doubt a human body could tell the difference between … Continue reading
