Bob Bentley . . . one day at a time. Saturday, January 24, 2015. Sack the Grocery Tax. Saturday. Sofa. Coffee. In the spirit of what sadly is the week's most major news story, a softball will not be allowed to be thrown this morning. No air will be let out and it may sting a little to try and catch it. Sometimes things are hard because they are supposed to be. Here is a hard truth. It should sting. But you need to be hit in the head with a hardball. It needs to sting. It's not about whether to buy a coke...

Bob Bentley . . . one day at a time. Saturday, March 1, 2014. Saturday. Coffee. No sofa. Finishing this post from an undisclosed location. I started it early Friday morning, but Friday came early and fast and lasted all day, so I finished it this morning. . .). The sun always rises. So I glanced out the window, since it was now light. I'll give you a few moments alone with your sarcastic thoughts. You are welcome for the set-up .). But then she moved back home. Until you go to the other bathroom, or the ...

Bob Bentley . . . one day at a time. Saturday, December 27, 2014. Saturday. Sofa. Coffee. I suspect that this is the kind of day that many a Great American Novel was written. Rainy and gray and cold. Why not write? Or many a great American nap taken, also a great achievement. There is nothing else to do. The aftermath of Christmas? What do we do with this mess? Christmas happens, thank God. And so it is when Christmas happens. When Christmas explodes. What are we supposed to do about the mess? Okay, it's...

Bob Bentley . . . one day at a time. Wednesday, February 18, 2015. Among the ashes (Ash Wednesday rambling). There was something different about my popcorn this evening. After I had a few handfuls I noticed some black specks, as if I had burned it on the stovetop. But I had not. I pride myself in a perfect pot of corn on a regular basis. The ashes did not have a taste and added no noticeable texture to my popcorn. They made no difference at all. From ashes I was made and to ashes I will return. That's wh...

Bob Bentley . . . one day at a time.: April 2014
http://jimbobbentley.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Bob Bentley . . . one day at a time. Saturday, April 19, 2014. Yes, it's called Holy Saturday. Saturday. Sofa. Coffee. Saturday has once again become a day of sleeping late. I will forgo the explanation for this change, but suffice it to say the explanation would be enough to help you sleep a little later as well. Nothing exciting here. I'm just tired. Apparently the birds on my hillside haven't heard it. We don't really know. We don't really know what to do. Do we want him to stay in the tomb? He turned...

Bob Bentley . . . one day at a time.: Bend but don't break . . .
http://jimbobbentley.blogspot.com/2015/03/bend-but-dont-break.html
Bob Bentley . . . one day at a time. Saturday, March 28, 2015. Bend but don't break . . . Saturday. Sofa. Coffee. It is a perfect spring morning. Birds are singing. Honeysuckle and wisteria are creeping. The sky is cornflower blue, my favorite color for the sky. The early morning air was icy, but it is warming up now. The view out the window behind the sofa is beautiful and daunting as I take stock of yard work that needs to be done. The laws of physics are relentless. Excessive force can have two re...

Bob Bentley . . . one day at a time.: Listen for the bird songs. . .
http://jimbobbentley.blogspot.com/2015/05/listen-for-bird-songs.html
Bob Bentley . . . one day at a time. Saturday, May 2, 2015. Listen for the bird songs. . . Saturday. Sofa. Coffee. Sometimes it seems like the darkness of night will not end. The light of dawn is reluctant to rise. But even in the darkness, the birds begin to sing. But while we are yet in darkness, the birds sing. Listen for their songs. They may seem insignificant. But the birds still sing in the darkness, promising, prophesying of a new and better day. The birds are singing. Posted by Bob Bentley.

http://jimbobbentley.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Bob Bentley . . . one day at a time. Saturday, May 3, 2014. Not Walt Whitman, but it delayed the yard work. Saturday. Sofa. Coffee. It's going to be a great day. The air is cold early this morning, but there is not a whisp of a cloud in the cornflower sky. It will be perfect May weather by noon. I was busy last fall. Give me a break. Or better yet, a rake. Mowing did give me pause. But then I would not have trees. Or shade. Or the beautiful colors of Autumn right outside my window. Or acorns ...I underst...
